Katie Price and new boyfriend Leandro Penna have completed their skydives.

The British TV star and the Argentinean polo player - who have been dating for seven weeks after meeting at Sir Elton John's Oscars party in February - jumped out of a plane thousands of feet up in the sky above the Argentine city of Alta Gracia, which is 20 miles north from Leandro's hometown of Despenaderos.

Katie and Leandro were each paired with a qualified instructor for a tandem jump and when they landed, they greeted each other with a kiss and Leandro's parents, Hector and Mercedes, were waiting for them.

Writing on her twitter page, Katie said: "This is me and Leo skydiving. Can't believe we did it."

Katie - whose three children, Harvey, eight, Junior, five, and three-year-old Princess Tiaamii, are currently on holiday with her ex-husband Peter Andre - is in Argentina to be introduced to 25-year-old Leandro's parents and she admitted the meeting earlier this week went well.

She said: "Great time great day great family leo is a true gent."

It seems Katie, 32, has become very taken with Argentina and has even started to learn Spanish.

She gushed in a tweet written in Spanish, which has been translated: "I love Cordoba. I'm fascinated with this province! The perfect Combrecita."

She even wrote "Io amo" meaning "I love him".
