Emma Roberts finds new man after Evan Peters split

Emma Roberts has moved on from ex-fiance Evan Peters with a new beau.

The American Horror Story co-stars called it quits for a second time earlier this year (16), and now Emma has found a new boyfriend in a man called Christopher Hines.

According to Us Weekly, Emma met Christopher through their mutual friend - fashion designer friend Brit Elkin.

"Chris is one of the most understanding and laid back guys," an insider tells the publication. "They’ve been dating for a little under a month."

Emma and Christopher went public with their blossoming relationship on Thursday (02Jun16), as they were photographed holding hands and embracing each other while on a stroll in London, England.

Emma, 25, and Evan, 29, began dating in 2012, after initially meeting on the set of their film Adult World, but did not start a romantic relationship until much later.

The on/off couple had a rocky relationship - Emma was arrested in Canada in the summer of 2013 following an alleged dispute with Evan, but the incident didn't stop the actor from proposing to her the following Christmas (13). The young couple called off their engagement last June (15).

In August (15), it appeared they had rekindled their relationship after they were photographed shopping in Los Angeles, and earlier this year (16), they were spotted kissing in front of a Hollywood restaurant.
