..He's only know her for a few weeks, but Mark Wright is clearly head over heels about Chelsea Rashoff.

The reality TV star was seen saying goodbye to the U.S. volleyball player at LAX airport yesterday and looked very sad to be leaving her.

Mark, 25, and Chelsea, 22, met each other in Los Angeles while the former TOWIE star filmed his latest reality show, Mark Wright's Hollywood Nights.

The ITV2 show didn't exactly receive great reviews when it aired for the first time last Sunday but viewers may be eager to tune in this weekend as the second episode will include how Mark and Chelsea first met.

Their romance is clearly more than just an onscreen film, as the pair of them appeared to be tearful as they said farewell outside the airport terminal.

When he appeared on This Morning today, Mark spoke publicly about his relationship with Chelsea describing her as 'great.

'It's a difficult one because she's got so many commitments out there, but we met, we had fun, but it was never meant to be like that,' he said.

'She's great, we got on so well. We started out as friends but then it developed into something else.

'She liked me for me because she didn't have a clue who I was.'

Outside LAX, Mark - who was wearing blue skinny jeans and a white T-shirt - was seen hugging Chelsea and kissing her as she flung her arms around his neck.

She was also wearing dark jeans and a white T-shirt and gazed at the Essex-born star as he prepared to catch his flight back to the UK.

The pair have obviously become quite close over the past six weeks, and perhaps Mark is considering letting Chelsea visit his hometown some time soon.

However, once he's touched down in London, Mark was no longer feeling so blue and instead headed straight out to Essex hotspot, Faces, to enjoy a night out with his friends.

But Mark didn't stay out all night, and later tweeted: 'I'm being good. On the way home 2 my bed 4 the 1st time in 6weeks. Faces was great as per usual but I'm on this morning 2mo so have 2 b good.'
