Donna Air has moved on from her brief romance with vaping millionaire Gunnar Winbergh as she was spotted looking very cosy with new man Ashley Smatt.
The Split actress, 42, who starred in the BBC drama about a high profile divorce, and the business man, couldn’t keep their hands off each other as they kissed and caressed each other during a dinner at a Spanish restaurant in West London.
Donna was last linked to Gunnar, whose vitamin vapes boast ‘inhaling your supplements supports your health’, last summer – but it appears that she has now found love with the advertising tycoon.

The business mogul is the founder and CEO of Maximus, a UK based Out-of-Home advertising company.
He is also CEO of Maximus Networks, a British telecommunications company providing a network of interactive street hubs.
Prior to her new romance with Ashley, Donna was dating Gunnar, who has three children with his ex-wife Saskia, who once dated Theo Osbourne, colourful younger brother of former Chancellor George.

After having their third child, Saskia left Gunnar for Nick Johnston, an Old Etonian pal of David Cameron, who was married at the time.
Donna previously dated Damian Aspinall, with whom she has a daughter, Freya, and went on to date James Middleton.
The couple had been in an on-off relationship for several years, and Donna attended the wedding of Pippa Middleton and James Matthews in May 2017.
Donna split from him James in 2018, but vowed to remain on good terms with her former partner. She told the Mail on Sunday: ‘James and I are no longer an item. We parted ways in December but remain the very best of friends and always will be.’
It later emerged she was in a romance with Harrow-educated property developer Ben Carrington, 39, and Donna told the Daily Mail at the time how she was enjoying decorating their new West London home.
However the couple soon went their separate ways.
A source said at the time: ‘It’s sad, but Donna is excited about the next chapter in her life,’ says a friend. ‘She has a great support system and at her birthday party in London last week she was surrounded by friends and family.’
Donna had been going out with Ben since shortly after she split up with the Duchess of Cambridge’s brother, James Middleton, in 2017.
It was reported last year that Donna’s daughter, 18, had decided to leave her expensive private school in favour of working at the Aspinall Foundation.

Freya wanted to follow in her conservationist father’s footsteps and work at the charity.
Speaking of her support for the decision, Donna said: ‘I don’t see what the big deal is. My daughter is incredibly bright. University is a wonderful thing, but education comes in all different forms and my daughter has had a wonderful education.
‘She’s been incredibly lucky, but I felt and she felt it’s time for a different form of education. I don’t have any objections.
‘As a parent you just have to make a decision on what’s best for your child – and if the pandemic has taught us anything it is that the most important thing is your child’s happiness and mental health. Damian left at 16 and he was fine.’
The couple controversially let their daughter into a gorilla enclosure when she was a baby to be carried off by the mother of the pack as part of a ‘ritual’.

VAPING MILLIONAIRE GUNNAR WINBERGH
Donna was last linked to Gunnar, whose vitamin vapes boast ‘inhaling your supplements supports your health’, last summer.
The loved-up couple were seen canoodling outside a Chelsea restaurant in July 2021, and friends were said to be excited about the union.
Gunnar has three children with his ex-wife Saskia, who once dated Theo Osbourne, colourful younger brother of former Chancellor George.
After having their third child, Saskia left Gunnar for Nick Johnston, an Old Etonian pal of David Cameron, who was married at the time.
HARROW EDUCATED PROPERTY DEVELOPER BEN CARRINGTON
Before Gunnar, Donna was last publicly in a relationship with Ben, 39, and Donna told the Daily Mail in May 2019 how she was enjoying decorating their new West London home.
However the couple soon went their separate ways.
A source said at the time: ‘It’s sad, but Donna is excited about the next chapter in her life,’ says a friend. ‘She has a great support system and at her birthday party in London last week she was surrounded by friends and family.’
DUCHESS OF CAMBRIDGE’S BROTHER JAMES MIDDLETON
The couple had been in an on-off relationship for several years, and Donna attended the wedding of Pippa Middleton and James Matthews in May 2017.
Donna split from him James in 2018, but vowed to remain on good terms with her former partner.
She told the Mail on Sunday: ‘James and I are no longer an item. We parted ways in December but remain the very best of friends and always will be.’
Donna previously insisted that James ‘didn’t introduce her to high society’ as she was already apparently very well connected.
SERIAL LOTHARIO CALLUM BEST
Callum was spotted trying to sneak home with Donna in September 2011 following a night at trendy London nightclub Mahiki.
After partying the night away together the pair attempted to try a dummy on the waiting paparazzi by leaving separately.
Calum left first at 3am and walked down the road away from the club whilst Donna jumped in her chauffeur driven Mercedes, but then picked up Calum around the corner.
Unfortunately for the incognito couple Calum was spotted crouched down trying to hide in the back seat of the car, next to Donna.
The couple headed back to Donna’s north London home.
CAMPBELL’S SOUP AIR JOHN DORRANCE IV
Donna had been dating the American-born tycoon since early 2010 but remained coy about the relationship, once saying: ‘I have met someone but I can’t say his name.’
The couple often jetted off to John’s holiday pad in the Swiss Alps and the TV presenter was also a frequent visitor at his lavish West London home in Holland Park.
Donna had told friends that the romance with John, billionaire heir to 40 per cent of the Campbell Soup fortune, was ‘very serious’.
But Newcastle-born Donna hinted at being single again when she said in a interview she had ‘never worked so hard as I have done being a single mum’.
CONSERVATIONIST DAMIAN ASPINALL
Donna previously dated Damian Aspinall, with whom she has a daughter, Freya, 18.
The couple controversially placed their daughter in the hands of a 200lb gorilla as a baby as part of a family ritual.
Describing his plans for Freya at the time, Aspinall told London’s Evening Standard: ‘It’s a ritual. I’ll probably give her to the dominant female who will take her off, sex her, and introduce her to the others.
‘I did this with my other daughters, now it’s Freya’s turn.’
Donna fully approved of the plan as neither believed Freya would be in any danger. ‘Why would I not trust them? I know them, I grew up with them. They are my friends,’ Aspinall said.
