Arg laughed: "I think she thought I was an English Michael Buble when I met her, that's what I tried to tell her anyway."
Holly added: "She's beautiful."
It comes after Arg revealed to The Sun that he wooed Stella by serenading her with love songs and Mafia movie marathons in his Essex mansion.
He said: “Stella is extremely intelligent, very talented and she’s fluent in four languages, including English, which is lucky, as my Italian’s not great, although it’s improving.
"And she’s beautiful, too. “I feel very lucky.
"Sometimes I have to pinch myself to remind myself this is all really happening.”
While he may have felt intimidated by multilingual Stella, Arg was still able to charm her.
He revealed: “I’m lucky enough to have a home cinema — there have to be some perks to being in showbiz — and I’m obsessed with Mafia films, so I made her watch Goodfellas and some Sopranos and Casino too.”
And Arg, who cheated death three years ago after a series of cocaine overdoses, has been honest with his new love about his chequered past.
He said: “We’ve got an amazing connection. She is extremely supportive.
