New love: James Haven and his girlfriend Ashley Reign kiss and cuddle after lunch at an Indian restaurant in Burbank, California


It's more than ten years since James Haven and his sister Angelina Jolie shocked onlookers with a passionate kiss at the Oscars.

But now Haven has found himself a woman of his own - and the pair seem blissfully happy.

The actor and producer, 37, was spotted kissing girlfriend Ashley Reign in a Burbank parking lot following a romantic meal.

The pair have been dating for 'over two years now', according to a source, who added that the blonde has become his first serious girlfriend.

It was a far cry from the 2000 Oscars when Haven and Joli'es embrace sparked an outcry, not helped by her claims to be 'in love' with him.

He later said of the kiss: 'It was an amazing moment. Yet it was totally misconstrued.'

Now friends of upcoming actress Reign say she is getting so serious with her new boyfriend they are certain she is set to become Jolie’s new sister-in-law.

Speaking from the modest two-bedroom home that she shares with a female friend, Reign said: 'Yes, we do have a great relationship, but I don’t want to talk about it.

'The reason we have such a good relationship is precisely because I don’t talk to the media about James.'

Sources close to the 27-year-old revealed that she has already met the entire Jolie clan.

Haven’s father Jon Voight, 'has taken a real liking to her' and Jolie and her partner Brad Pitt are also said to have warmed to her.

Pitt is said to be particularly supportive of the relationship as Haven had always taken a close interest in his sister's life, but now has his own interests.

A source said: 'Brad is very relieved that James has a distraction to stop him from taking such a strong interest in what Angelina was doing.'

Haven took Reign as his date to the premier of his sister’s movie Salt last year, although at the the time they were thought to be just friends.

As well as going on dates at an Indian restaurant in Burbank, Haven and Reign have also been spotted buying groceries together at the Ralphs supermarket near his multi-million dollar home in Sherman Oaks.

A friend of the couple said: 'They are head over heels in love. Ashley is one of the first girls James has felt serious enough about to introduce to his family and spend some quality time with.

'Whenever they are together they act like teenagers in love and cannot keep their hands off each other.

'It’s really nice to see them so happy. And the relationship has come as a big relief to Brad too, who sometimes felt like James was hanging around them too much.

'Brad always thought James would benefit from having a serious girlfriend.'

Haven, a born-again Christian, is unlikely to move in with his girlfriend before marriage.

Theatre studies graduate Reign continues to live in the downmarket area of Van Nuys and drives an old Ford Mustang which she has had since her youth in Arkansas.
However, the star is deeply committed to Ashley.

A source said: 'A wedding is definitely on the cards for these two in the near future. James’ family have really taken to Ashley and everyone would be delighted if they were to walk down the aisle one day soon.'
