OC actress Mischa Barton has bagged herself a new rocker boyfriend, British frontman Luke Pritchard from The Kooks.

They were first spotted in a small boozer in North London getting friendly in a pub at a special Christmas bash for trendy DJ collective Oh, Inverted World.

The 22-year-old actress really let herself go, clapping and cheering loudly when Luke, 23, below, got up on stage to do a surprise solo acoustic session.

A gushing Luke confided to the Daily Mirror, confided to me: “It’s early days yet but, yes, we are seeing each other. I’m very lucky. She’s beautiful, so I feel lucky she decided to go out with someone like me. It came about because we have lots of friends in common and kept going to the same parties.”

Luke’s been a good roll lately. His band’s album Konk went straight to number one when it was released back in April, but now that the band’s tour is over, Luke revealed: “I plan to enjoy myself and hopefully see more of Mischa.”

Both have had a string of high-profile romances. Mischa has dated Taylor Locke, guitarist in American band Rooney, and Whitestarr’s Cisco Adler. Luke’s ex’s include TV presenter Fearne Cotton and singer Katie Melua.
