Amy Winehouse has a new man in St Lucia - a waiter she met at a low-key resort. Her latest holiday fling goes by the name of Clifford, but is known to locals as "Junior".

Holiday romance: Amy Winehouse in St Lucia

Amy, 25, hit it off with him after they met him at a bar on the island, and has even taken him along to viewings as she looks to buy a luxury pad on the Caribbean paradise island.

A source said: "Amy has been letting her hair down on the island and is enjoying being single. She instantly clicked with Junior and is just having a bit of fun. It's very early days but she loves spending time with him."

The chap, who works at the luxury East Winds resort, was spotted with Amy as she viewed a $2m (£1.33m) villa this week.

The pair were seen arm in arm while visiting the property, which is set against the dramatic backdrop of the Piton mountains near the town of Soufriere.

The source continued: "They were snuggling into each other as they walked around the villa, taking in the spectacular views. It is in a very secluded area, with four bedrooms and a huge swimming pool.

"There is a massive deck, where Amy said she'd love to be able to get a band out onto to play over the valley views."

The neighbours are going to love that. The source added: "It was a bit strange seeing a bedraggled Amy walking around this opulent villa with a guy who only earns a handful of dollars an hour."

Amy is due to play the St Lucia Jazz Festival next month as a thank you to the locals who she feels have been so welcoming to her.

She has been living on the island for five months now, working on her new album. Junior isn't the first holiday fling she's had there - in January she had a brief dalliance with aspiring actor Josh Bowman.

Amy has been single since splitting from her husband Blake Fielder-Civil.
