Mia senorita! Joey Essex enjoys single life as he is spotted romancing a mystery Spanish beauty

Having recently come out of a long term relationship, Joey Essex has shown that he is loving single life as he was spotted canoodling with a mystery Spanish beauty in Ibiza.

The TOWIE star, 22, was enjoying a break at the Ocean Club Ibiza where he seemed to have caught the eye of an attractive young lady.

The pair looked wrapped up in each other as they kissed and chatted by the pool, drinking from bright orange champagne flutes. 

Smooching: Joey Essex can't resist showing his affection for a mystery Spanish beauty

Joey wore a wide smile as he put his arm around his blonde companion who also seemed in high spirits.  

The fake tan-loving reality star was no doubt relishing the chance to soak up the sun as he relaxed in a pair of black swimming trunks.
His companion wore a hot pink sequinned trilby hat with a lilac vest, white minishorts and aviator sunglasses.

Joey has only recently become single again after splitting from his long-term girlfriend and TOWIE co-star Sam Faiers.

The couple were engaged before breaking up in 2011 and reconciling last year.

They then decided to get engaged again in March before they split again in June following a series of arguments documented on the show.

But it seems that Joey has the support and sympathy of his cousin Chloe Sims.

Chloe told Heatworld.com: ‘Joey] is really good and well... The day after filming, he flew at 9am to Ibiza.’

She added: ‘They seem happier... a lot happier. And I think it's healthier for them to be apart. But if they decide in the future to work things out then great, it's up to them.’
