Bye-bye, Justin Bobby! Audrina Patridge has a new beau. At the January 11 opening of the Jimmy Choo store in Beverly Hills, the Hills star, 22, told Us Weekly all about her whirlwind romance with Bernard Steimann, 25, an old high school pal. (To see more pics of the Hills stars as kids, click here.) "I've known him since I was 16," she told Us. "My sister recently had a baby shower and he was there. We have been hanging out ever since." (The duo were spotted holding hands and hugging in L.A. January 11.) The only catch? He lives 50 miles away, in Newport, California. "I'm torn between being here in L.A. and being there," she said. Luckily, geography seems to be their only stumbling block, since Steimann ' unlike her ex Justin "Bobby" Brescia ' has already passed the most important test: winning Hills BFF Lauren Conrad's seal of approval. Conrad, an Us weight winner , tells Us, "He is a sweetheart!" For more details, pick up the newest issue of Us Weekly, on newsstands now.
