Jamie Lomas was at the centre of a TV spat last week when Emmerdale actor Asan N’Jie threatened to stab him at the TV Choice awards.
But the Hollyoaks hunk, 44, appeared to have put all the drama behind him when he was spotted kissing a mystery blonde on Thursday.
Dressed in a casual hoodie, jeans and trainers, Jamie looked smitten with the mystery woman after they spent the afternoon in trendy eatery Boisdale in London.
He wrapped his arms around the pretty blonde, who looked chic in an eye-catching leopard print blouse, a black vest top and matching jeans.
Jamie appeared to be in high spirits just days after his run-in with Asan.
Asan, whose character Ellis has been involved in a knife attack storyline, bellowed at Jamie: "Do you think you are a f*****g big man? I'm going to f*****g kill you. I'm going to f*****g knife you."
He was thrown out of the venue after the pair were pulled apart by security twice.
ITV bosses confirmed that they'd sacked Asan following an investigation.
He then issued a grovelling apology.
A spokesperson for the channel said: "Emmerdale suspended Asan N'Jie yesterday pending further investigation into an incident at a central London hotel on Monday night.
"ITV executives have met with him this morning and as a consequence Asan's contract has been terminated with immediate effect."
Asan said: "My behaviour at the TV Choice Awards was completely unacceptable and very much out of character.
"I sincerely apologise to everybody who has been affected especially Jamie Lomas, the whole Emmerdale team, our audience, ITV, my family, and the organisers of the TV Choice Awards.
"I am devastated, accept full responsibility for my actions and I am determined to learn from this."
