Nicoline’s new romance has set tongues wagging. The Swedish model appears to have found comfort in the arms of Italian tennis player Lucianco Darderi. The 32-year-old shared cozy snaps with the 23-year-old athlete. This occurred just two months after her ex, TOWIE star James Argent, avoided jail for assaulting her.
Nicoline posted a series of intimate photos with Lucianco after his match at the Nordea Open in Sweden. In one shot, she rested her head close to his, her hand on his stomach. She captioned it: “Proud of you champ.” Another selfie showed them smiling in Båstad, Sweden. The caption read: “Today we go again VAMOS!”
Fans quickly noticed their chemistry. This was especially evident as they’ve been liking each other’s Instagram posts. The Argentine-born tennis star, who recently competed at Wimbledon, seems to have brought a fresh spark to Nicoline’s life. This follows after a traumatic year.
The new romance comes weeks after Nicoline broke her silence about the abuse she suffered at the hands of Argent. Last year, she was injured after being pushed down the stairs of their shared Spanish home. The reality star was arrested and later admitted to domestic violence in court.
In a heartfelt statement, Nicoline revealed the emotional toll of their relationship. She accused Argent of allowing his ex, Lydia Bright, to interfere in their romance. “I felt there were too many people in our relationship,” she said. “I asked so many times if we could be just the two of us, but the answer was a strong NO.”
Last month, Nicoline hinted at her healing journey. She posted: “In the midst of a setback, there is a comeback laying ahead of you.” Now, her budding connection with Lucianco suggests she’s embracing a brighter future.
Meanwhile, Argent has been partying with TOWIE pals, including at Tommy Mallet and Georgia Kousoulou’s wedding. But as Nicoline steps into a new romance, it seems she’s leaving the drama behind.
