Heather Locklear has been seen getting affectionate with her new boyfriend Lorenzo Lamas.

The Daily Mail has unearthed old photos of the hot new couple that show them arm-in-arm in mid January as he sweetly carried her Gucci purse.

They were attending the Brave & Rescued Awards in Los Angeles, honoring firefighters who responded to the Eaton Fire.

The TV siren was glowing as she wore a pink outfit while holding onto her new love who was dressed in a black shirt and blue jeans while modeling aviator sunglasses.

The 64-year-old blonde beauty and the 68-year-old screen idol have been dating for about six months. 

These photos have surfaced just as news broke that the Melrose Place veteran finally met the Falcon Crest star's children, according to a Wednesday report from TMZ.

The meet-and-greet happened over the weekend at her gated Thousand Oaks, California mansion, the site added, before the group went to lunch and the movies.

Lamas has six children. He shares son A.J., 42, and daughter Shayne, 40, with his late wife Michele Cathy Smith whom he was wed to from 1983 until 1985. 

He also has daughters Victoria, 26, Isabella, 25, and Alexandra, 28, with ex-wife Shauna Sand, whom he was wed to from 1996 until 2002. 

And there is daughter Paton, 37, whom he had with actress Daphne Ashbrook. 

Meanwhile, Locklear has one child, daughter Ava, 28, with her ex-husband Richie Sambora, 66; they were married from 1994 to 2007.

Lamas' daughter Shayne, who was on The Bachelor with Matt Grant in 2008, shared a photo to Instagram with her dad and her two kids while on Locklear's property.  

The caption read, 'Spring Break w Papa LoLo 2026.' 

News of the romance between Locklear and Lamas broke last week on TMZ with E! News getting a confirmation from Lamas on Tuesday.

They were first seen together in November at a dinner party at The World's Largest Disco event in Buffalo, New York.

Then on New Year's Eve they were spotted on a date at Barry's Steakhouse in the Circa Resort & Casino. 

The pair 'had a private table and were very touchy feely with each other,' an insider said as photos were shared.

Then on January 17, they both attended The Brave & Rescued Awards at The LA City Fire Museum where they walked arm in arm.

They did not pose side-by-side on the red carpet.

The actors go way back, however, as they were friends in the 1980s and they hang out in the same circle of Hollywood friends.

Lamas is one of the first nepo babies as his parents were famous actors Fernando Lamas and Arlene Dahl. 

His father was an Argentine actor and director, while his mother, Arlene, was a Norwegian-American actress and MGM contract star. 

His parents divorced when he was two, and his father later married actress Esther Williams.

Lorenzo got his start in acting by appearing on the hot 1980s TV shows Hotel and Fantasy Island. 

Lamas is best known for playing Lance Cumson on Falcon Crest from 1981 to 1990. 

He also starred as Reno Raines on the hit TV series Renegade from 1992 until 1997, and had a small role in the hit movie Grease. 

He has steadily worked on films over the past two years, racking up credits with parts in Love in the Clouds, Checkmate, Stepmom from Hell, Prepare to Die and Team of Two.

Locklear shot to global superstardom as Amanda Woodward on the hit series Melrose Place, where she starred from 1993 until 1999. 

The blonde also popped back on the new version of the show from 2009 until 2010.

Her other hit TV shows include Dynasty, TJ Hooker and Spin City.
