James later added his own snap of him and Charlie holding hands with a love heart emoji.
The producer, who has worked on a number of high-profile commercials, is understood to have met Charlie earlier this year.
It’s Charlie’s first public romance since splitting from boyfriend Ben Hollington, to whom she was married for six years, in 2018.
She has a daughter with Ibiza club owner Tony Truman, from whom she split in 2007, and has previously spoken about their unusual relationship – revealing in 2021 that he lived in the flat above her and Ben.
Charlie also revealed that Tony “cried” when she broke up with Ben.
She explained how the trio were super close while raising Charlie and Tony’s daughter Kiki together.
Speaking on Yahoo UK’s White Wine Question Time podcast, she said: “My ex-partner Ben, who I was with for five or six years, who is an amazing human being, you know, we woke up on Christmas Day together, all of us.
“Tony would come downstairs, we’d all go to bed and open presents together with Kiki, because she adores Ben, and I think that can be problematic.
“I think he probably has more trouble with that kind of thing than I do. I’ve been single for four years, so that’s the longest I’ve ever been single.
“Then I was with Ben for five or six years before that, who was just accepting. Tony absolutely adored him, we all went on holiday together.
“Tony cried when me and Ben broke up. He actually did.”
