According to Mail Online, Ralf has now joined exclusive dating app, Raya, and has grown close to actress Shelley Lankovits, who also worked on Death in Paradise as an assistant director.
Whispers that Ralf and Lindsey had parted ways were rife back in April after she ditched her ring and they unfollowed each other on social media.
An insider told the publication that Ralf enjoyed a date with Shelley earlier this week at Frog and Bucket comedy club in Manchester.
The pair were allegedly kissing and "acting like a couple", according to the report.
