"SheÂ’s extremely happy right now and really enjoying spending time with James,' one source told the Mirror at the time of Keira and JamesÂ’' budding romance.

 

"He’s a real rocker and a lovely guy with it and she likes that whole scene – lately she’s become far more rock and roll and has been hanging out with a really trendy crowd."
