Vicky Pattison’s new boyfriend John Noble used to date her LOOKALIKE and is pals with Love Island star Sophie Gradon

VICKY Pattison’s new boyfriend John Noble used to date the TV presenter’s doppelganger.

Rebecca Price, who dated the Geordie businessman until last year, is the spitting image of The I’m A Celebrity Extra camp host.

With their long brunette hair and pretty features, the girls are near identical.

Even their social media profiles are similar – with Vicky and Rebecca pulling look-a-like poses for selfies.

It’s thought John and Rebecca, who’s from Leeds, dated for a couple of years before they split in 2015.

John’s no stranger to the spotlight – counting Vicky’s former Geordie Shore co-star Scotty T and Love Island’s Sophie Gradon among his close mates.

He’s now gone public with Vicky, after she revealed John had flown out to Australia to be with her on her birthday.

Sharing a loved up picture of the pair together on Instagram, Vicky told her followers: “What’s meant to be will always find a way.”

On Friday, the new couple put on a loved up display during a walk down on the Gold Coast.

Leaning up for a passionate kiss, the pair packed on the PDA away from filming, with Vicky staring lovingly up at her fellow Geordie throughout.

Smiling and laughing as they chatted together, the pair looked relaxed and at ease with each other as the romance continues to heat up.

Vicky showed off her slimmed-down figure in a loose shimmering bronze dress, adding black heeled ankle boots to show off her lengthy legs.

But John towered over her as he went casual in a baggy white t-shirt and cream shorts, wearing trendy sunglasses for the stroll.

The Sun first revealed Vicky and John were getting close in October after she appeared on The Xtra Factor.

A source said: “Vicky and John were all over each other, and he even grabbed her bum at one point in full view of the audience.

“They didn’t seem to mind her mum was sat right next to them – they used to date in the past and Vicky was obsessed with him.

“She was there on the back of a 48-hour bender and had a few too many drinks in the green room to liven herself up backstage before going on.”

Vicky was previously linked to everyone from Mario Falcone to firefighter Jordan Wright and Made in Chelsea hunk Spencer Matthews.

Despite enjoying a series of dates together, Spencer later claimed Vicky ‘friend-zoned’ him because of his poor track record when it comes to relationships.
