They first put on an amorous display in their video for Heartbeat back in 2010.
And not much looked to have changed four years down the line when Nicole Scherzinger and Enrique Iglesias reunited for a surprise duet on Tuesday evening.
The former X Factor judge, 35, and her Spanish companion, 39, kept each other close during their steaming performance at Malta's Isle of MTV.
