Katie Price has reportedly asked her new boyfriend to marry her.

The 32-year-old star - who split from her husband Alex Reid in January after just 11 months of marriage - was first spotted with 25-year-old Argentinean model Leandro Penna at Sir Elton John's post-Oscars party last month but is already hoping to settle down with him.

The pair were spotted partying with Katie's ex-boyfriend Dane Bowers earlier this week at a bash hosted by adult TV station Babestation at London's Merah nightclub, where the former glamour model vomited in the fire exit before popping the question in restaurant Balans.

A source said: "Katie kept saying, 'Marry me. Come on, why don't we just go and get married?'

"It's like Alex Reid never existed, but they aren't even divorced yet."

Katie - who has three children, Harvey, eight, Junior, five, and three-year-old Princess Tiaamii, from previous relationships -recently declared her love for Leandro.

She tweeted: "Es todo un tierno. Lo amo," which roughly translates as "It's all tender. I love him."

She posted a picture of the pair kissing on the micro blogging site.

Katie's relationship with Leandro - who has fronted advertising campaigns for Louis Vuitton and Coca Cola - has not impressed estranged husband Alex, who is said to have "flipped" when he heard about the couple and headed for crisis divorce talks with his lawyers.

An insider said: "Alex's hurt has turned to rage. His humiliation continues. She keeps dangling the carrot that there's a glimmer of hope for them - but she's just being cruel."
