The 'White Lotus' actor, 28, split from hairdresser 40-year-old celebrity hairdresser Chris - whose clients include reality superstar Kim Kardashian as well as pop star Jennifer Lopez and 'Thank U, Next' singer Ariana Grande - towards the end of last year after just six months of marriage and has been spotted on dating app Hinge in recent weeks.

Asked why he had joined Hinge as opposed to the more celebrity-orientated dating app Raya, he told TMZ: "You know...the real ones. We don't need any more influencers, we're good. We've done that already."

In November, legal documents seen by the outlet showed that Chris had cited "irreconcilable differences" as the reason behind the split.

It had also been claimed that the former couple had a prenuptial agreement in place and an insider explained to the outlet that whilst the divorce was "not an easy decision for Chris to make", he had "tried everything" to make it work.

The former couple were reported to have tied the knot in a secret ceremony in April and 'The Kardashians' star Kim, 43, is said to have officiated the proceedings.

The trio also attended the Daily Front Row’s Fashion Awards in Los Angeles around the same time, where Kim presented Chris with an award.

A source told Page Six they said “I do” in front of six guests with the outlet adding Clark County records confirmed the couple had applied for a marriage licence.

Speaking on 'The Today Show', he said: "I feel very happy, very lucky, and very much in love. He's a good-looking man. Something about being in London, I got a taste of the Brits and couldn't help myself."

That same month, British-born Chris reciprocated Lukas's feelings as he noted that he was "very happy" in his relationship.

Speaking on 'The Kelly Clarkson Show'. he said: "I’m very happy (and) very much in love!"
