'Amazing Race' star Anastasia Drimousis in new relationship

Anastasia Drimousis has embarked on a new relationship.

The 22-year-old Greek-Australian, who took part in reality television series The Amazing Race earlier this year, is believed to be in "love" with South Australian AFL player and student nurse Ash Duncan after fellow Amazing Race contestant Mel Munday introduced them about a month ago.

A friend of Drimousis told The Daily Telegraph: "It was love at first sight." The couple were spotted at Bowie Wong's fashion show on Wednesday night last week.

Drimousis took part in The Amazing Race with her ex-boyfriend Chris Pselletes. Pselletes shocked viewers with his chauvinistic and aggressive behaviour towards his girlfriend and they split up shortly after filming finished.

Pselletes later said that he was "scared" when he saw himself on TV, saying: "I'm disgusted with my behaviour. I'm ashamed of myself. I saw some footage of me on the show and I scared myself."

After their split, Drimousis said: "We don't miss each other at all. A couple of weeks ago we sat down and laid everything on the table. We both decided not to continue and go forth as friends instead. There wasn't even a lot of crying."
