Keira Knightley has appeared in quite a few love scenes in her time, but not many as convincing as this.
She and her new boyfriend James Righton enjoyed a passionate clinch at a sun-drenched park near his home in East London.
The 26-year-old actress has been dating Righton, 27, for five weeks after being introduced by their mutual friend Alexa Chung. Righton plays keyboards for the rock band Klaxons.

When the couple initially emerged from his flat, she was wearing a polka-dot dress but for the visit to the park she changed to a frilly cream shirt beneath a black cardigan.
The Pirates of the Caribbean actress, 26, and the keyboard player, 27, kicked off their relationship after Keira broke up with fellow actor Rupert Friend.
They had been together for five years and shared a London flat near Hyde Park.
They split just before Christmas after speculation that work commitments had driven them apart.

After the break-up Keira’s father William, 64, told the Mail: ‘It wasn’t a decision that either of them took lightly. I know they gave it a great deal of thought.
‘It’s very unfortunate, but Keira is coping well and is focusing on a new West End play that she is opening. She is getting on with things. I know that she and Rupert will remain great friends.’
Keira met Rupert, 29, when they appeared together in the 2005 film version of Pride And Prejudice.
Prior to Rupert, Keira dated Irish model Jamie Dornan for two years.
