She has been incredibly open about her search for love after splitting from her partner Ben Ofoedu.
However, as Vanessa Feltz would be the first to admit, her path to finding a partner has not been easy: just look at her time on Celebs Go Dating.
However, it looks like the 62-year-old star now has a new man in her sights, none other than Tinder’s “most stolen man,” Stefan-Pierre Tomlin, 33.
It is an unexpected choice for Vanessa, who last year quit the toy boys after discovering that her ex Ben, 51, had been unfaithful to her.
However, if her relationship with Stefan-Pierre turns into romance, she will have moved on with a man almost half her age.
Vanessa Feltz, 62, has attracted attention after being seen with ‘Mr. Tinder’ Stefan-Pierre Tomlin, 33, after she vowed to give up toys (pictured last month).
Vanessa has been incredibly open about her search for love after splitting from her partner Ben Ofoedu (pictured in 2018).
Speaking to The Mirror last year, Vanessa revealed she was interested in pursuing someone her age, confessing: “I’ve just spent 17 years with a man 10 years younger, so I’m considering not dating a younger man now.” “.
‘Someone I can trust would be good and someone who meant what they said. I think it would be wonderful to have someone you could really trust.
Interestingly, when it comes to Stefan-Pierre, he has been accused of promoting dating dishonesty.
He works as a dating coach and uses an AI chatbot to help singles find love.
Through her site Celebrity Love Coach, she uses ChatGPT to help those she describes as “not genetically blessed” get dates.
Charging singles between £45 and £120 a month, it uses photo editing tools and the chatbot to write attractive dating profiles and messages.
He insists that this is not something akin to “catfishing” but simply “leveling the playing field”, and had previously stated: “It’s not cheating, it’s giving power back to the less fortunate.”
“I’m giving non-genetically blessed people a hidden advantage in the dating game.”
She added that AI image enhancements are no different than women uploading “a photo to Instagram using a filter” or receiving “Botox or fillers.”
Stefan-Pierre first rose to fame in 2017 when his popularity on a dating app earned him over 14,500 matches in two years and the nickname ‘Mr. Tinder’.
Stefan-Pierre admitted that he loved the “attention” that came from his newfound fame, stating that “it was very exciting” when people approached him and asked for selfies.
Stefan-Pierre first rose to fame in 2017 when his popularity on a dating app earned him over 14,500 matches in two years and the nickname ‘Mr. Tinder’.
The model, from south London, used to meet up with around 20 matches a day, going on several dates, including one while on holiday in Marbella.
He then appeared on several television shows including Celebs Go Dating, Dinner Date, First Dates, This Morning and The Jeremy Vine Show.
Writing for Metro.co.uk, Stefan-Pierre admitted that he loved the “attention” his newfound fame brought him, writing: “I remember being on a train from London to Kent to visit my mother shortly after and everyone had their phones and newspapers, reading about my coronation as Mr Tinder.
‘When I got off the train, people asked me for selfies.
“I loved the attention and being ‘famous’; it was very exciting, especially because girls at school who had never paid attention to me started showing up on Messenger, wanting to be friends.”
However, behind the scenes, he struggled with his confidence and trying to mask the receding hairline that had plagued him since he was 22.
He finally solved the problem with a hair transplant in Türkiye.

However, behind the scenes, he struggled with his confidence and attempted to mask the receding hairline that had plagued him since he was 22, before undergoing a hair transplant.
However, he claimed that his status had worked against him and that he was now too famous to find love.
He continued: ‘I’m now finding that it’s hard for girls to see me for who I am. They like the idea of me but they don’t realize what my lifestyle entails.
“Having the name Mr Tinder is not ideal for a girl looking for Mr. Right.”
The key, according to Stefan, is dating celebrities, as he reflected: “I’ve dated a few celebrities because unless you’re in this industry, you don’t really understand what it’s like.”
‘Girls who have normal jobs can feel overwhelmed – the lifestyle involves a lot of traveling and I’m soaked too, which can lead to arguments.
‘When I’m out, they recognize me and I take a lot of photos with other people, because I’m a good guy. That can cause jealousy.
However, it looks like Stefan-Pierre has been granted his wish after being spotted at a cozy dinner at chic restaurant Sheesh in London’s Mayfair this week.
The model and love coach sat at an intimate table with Vanessa and supposedly talked for hours before saying goodbye with a hug.
In snapshots obtained by Mirror Vanessa wore a leopard-print dress to the meal which she paired with a fur-trimmed sequin jacket.
Meanwhile, Stefan, who previously appeared on This Morning to offer dating advice, cut a modern figure in a leather jacket and jeans.
The duo seemed comfortable in each other’s company and, according to the publication, chatted at length before leaving the venue at 11 p.m.
Vanessa and Stefan made their red carpet debut together last month while posing at the Vindication Swim premiere.
Stefan-Pierre, who is also a trained pilot, previously admitted that he prefers to find true love the old-fashioned way, rather than searching for his best match on modern dating apps.
He has a lively dating history, having split from X Factor star Natasha Boon in 2020, and in 2021 he clashed with his Big Brother ex Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace on MTV’s Ex In The City.

There has been no love lost between the former couple as Ben explosively hit out at Vanessa, claiming she stole the “best years of my life” and used him as “a treat for the eyes.”
