It's all true about Erica Packer and Seal. They're canoodling. On a boat.

It’s a battle of ‘whose new partner is more famous?’

The relationship between billionaire James Packer and voice of your family Christmas Mariah Carey is old news. Because there’s a new, very famous couple that we need to talk about.

James Packer’s ex-wife, 36-year-old Erica Packer, has started dating supermodel Heidi Klum‘s ex-husband, 52-year-old soul singer Seal.

Peal/Sacker is officially official. We know this because they’ve been ‘spotted’ ‘canoodling’ on a yacht, and in words we all understand, that means KISSING.

They’ve been holidaying together in Italy and just so happened to be photographed while Seal played with Erica’s kids, seven-year-old Indigo and five-year-old Jackson. James and Erica also have a two-year-old daughter, Emmanuelle, who was not pictured.

Seal has four children with his former wife of seven years, Heidi Klum – Leni, 11, Henry, nine, Johan, eight, and Lou, five. They didn’t get an invite to the Italian yacht, unfortunately.

Aside from true love and all that, which we’re sure this is, it seems to be a battle of who can date the more famous person.

At the moment, James is winning. Sorry, Erica. Seal’s great and all, but he has sold a pitiful 20 million records to date, while Mariah Carey has sold over 200 million.

There’s no denying it – Maracker won this round. But congrats and all that to Erica and Seal. We hope their lives together are filled with yachts and canoodling.
