She split from her long-term love Lewis Hamilton only a couple of months ago.

But has Nicole Scherzinger moved on already and found herself a new man so soon?

The pop star was spotted at Los Angeles aiport with a mystery man who she looked very close to as they walked through the terminal.

The man stuck by the X Factor judge's side as they made their way to check in, and she had her arm through his and didn't let go, even touching his chest at one point.

And the mystery man, who was wearing a Young Money Crew sweatshirt and what appeared to be a hamburger-shaped bag over his arm, was seen putting his arm around the former Pussycat Doll as they shared a joke together.

He was dressed casually in sweatpants and trainers and a baseball cap and she looked very chic in her grey and black dogtooth skinny jeans and heeled boots.

She completed the look with a black trilby hat and a black leather jacket and both she and her companion hid their eyes beneath dark glasses.

Her mystery man could be nothing more than just a good friend, but it's the first time Nicole has been linked to anyone since she became single again.

Nicole, 33, split from Formula One ace Lewis, 26, in November after four years together.

They are believed to have called time on their relationship because their conflicting work schedules meant they were seeing less and less of each other.

But a source recently claimed that Nicole and Lewis may rekindle their relationship.

A source told the Mirror earlier this month that Nicole still loves Lewis, and is 'so dear to the [his] family', who her as their daughter-in-law.

'Theyve been in touch over Chri! stmas to catch up and wish each other well,' the source added.

'Theyve built such a bond with her over the years. Everyone is secretly hoping that Lewis and Nicole will give their love another go when the time is right for them.'
