The 39-year-old was by her side at a pal’s wedding in Greenwich, South London, last month after the couple were introduced through mutual friends. 

A guest said: “It’s early days and she has a lot on her plate, but he’s shown her so much support. 

“He was with her on what was a tough day. 

“They were kissing and looked loved-up.”

Divorcee Sean, who has two children, has been on a string of dates with the beauty and influencer. 

Former estate agent Sean, from Essex, is a familiar face in Brentwood, where TV's Towie is filmed.

Pals say they met at a wedding in Greece - and instantly hit it off. 

Tom had a string of hits with boyband The Wanted before being diagnosed with brain cancer in March aged 33. 

He tragically left behind children Aurelia, three, and Bodhi, one, as well as his Kelsey.

The pair met in a West London night club in 2009 when Tom was 21 and Kelsey was 19. 

At his funeral Kelsey, who has two children with late star, said: "Marrying you was the best day of my life."

In April she opened up to The Sun about Tom's final moments.

She said: "I got into bed with him. We were in bed together for two hours, I just wanted that time with him.

"It was romantic even then. Yes, we were in a hospice but that was Tom as a person, it never mattered where we were.

"I said, ‘You know Tom, I will be OK, the kids will be OK. I will make sure that everything you want them to know, the things that you’ve taught me over the years, I promise to teach them it all’.

"He said, ‘I know you’re going to be OK’. He then took off his wedding ring and put it on my finger."

On their daughter Aurelia's third birthday, she took to Instagram to share a series of touching photos and video clips of Tom with the toddler.

She wrote alongside them: "Well, my baby girl is three and it’s been three months since we lost Tom - two big milestones.
