New York  - Sean Penn is enjoying life following his split from his wife of over 20 years, Robin Wright Penn.

The Oscar-winning actor, 49, has been spotted canoodling in New York with his new girlfriend, swimsuit model Jessica White, 25, with People magazine reporting that they enjoyed a romantic dinner together before leaving for a swanky hotel.

The couple met at a party last month at Kid Rock's house.

"They are together all the time," a source said. "They are pretty serious together. She wants to get serious with him, and it seems like he is really into her, too." (dpa)
