Chrishell Stause and her new boyfriend, Jason Oppenheim, are enjoying the most fabulous Italian vacation just days after the Selling Sunset star dropped the dating bombshell news.
On Friday, Chrishell and Jason were spotted walking around Rome, hand-in-hand, while taking in the city's historic culture. They visited the Colosseum and the Roman Forum before packing up their things and heading out of the ancient town.
Given the scorching heat (it's currently over 90 degrees Fahrenheit there), the two were wearing airy clothing and seen chugging from water bottles.
Chrishell opted for a brown tank top, loose-fitting cream-colored shorts and sandals, while Jason sported a navy blue T-shirt, khaki shorts and sneakers.
The 40-year-old former soap opera actress made her couple debut with the 44-year-old real estate tycoon in a shocking Instagram post on Wednesday.
Sharing several photos from the cast's trip to Italy, Chrishell saved the best two snaps last. In one picture, she was seen planting a sweet kiss on her Selling Sunset boss' bald head, and in the other, Jason was shown leaning in to kiss his leading lady's neck while she was sitting on his lap.
Both were taken on a boat, because who isn't on a boat in Italy these days? (Us.)
"The JLo effect," she cheekily captioned the images, referencing Jennifer Lopez's first Instagram post with Ben Affleck since the two rekindled their flame.
"Love you Chrishell. Thank you for making my brother happy," Jason's twin, Brett Oppenheim, commented.
Co-star Mary Fitzgerald and her husband, Romain Bonnet, even got in on the action.
Mary famously dated Jason before walking down the aisle with Romain.
"So happy for you guys! Finally people will stop with Jason and Mary hopefully," Bonnet hilariously commented.
Fitzgerald added her own sappy two cents, writing, "Nothing makes me more excited than to see two of my closest friends together and making each other so happy!"
Following the fan frenzy that ensued, Oppenheim confirmed the couple's new romance to Us Weekly, revealing exactly how their friendship evolved into something romantic.
"Chrishell and I became close friends and it has developed into an amazing relationship," he told the outlet. "I care about her deeply and we're very happy together."
Stause and her ex-husband, Justin Hartley, finalized their divorce just six months ago.
The This Is Us hunk pulled the plug on their marriage in November of 2019 when he filed for divorce.
But he moved on even faster than Chrishell did!
Back in May, Hartley and his girlfriend, Sofia Pernas, were spotted wearing what looked like wedding bands.
