Ex-Neighbours actress Holly Valance says she is "so happy" after finding herself a billionaire boyfriend.

The 27-year-old pop star has spoken of her relationship to British real estate mogul Nick Candy in an interview with the UK’s Daily Mail.

Nick, 37, and his brother Christian are famous for turning a $10 000 loan into a $15 billion global property portfolio which incudes London's One Hyde Park, the most expensive development in British history.

Holly admits she has become accustomed to "razzle dazzle" but said the extravagant lifestyle of her new boyfriend took some getting used to.

"The wealth and the lifestyle were overwhelming initially," admits Holly.

"I was used to razzle dazzle and meeting lots of famous people, but I wasn't used to super-yachts and private jets.

"I don’t think I'll ever get used to it."

After attempting to launch a pop career in London in 2002 then moving to LA to follow acting, Valance has returned to the UK and scaled back her raunchy image.

"When I watch my music videos, I scream 'What was I doing?'" she said.

"I am so shy now. I've turned into a grandma."

Valance said that when she met Candy, she didn't know about his wealth.

"I didn't know anything about him.

"I just thought 'cor, if I didn't fancy you so much, we'd be the best of friends.

“Instead, I just want to make out with you all the time.'"

Valance said she feels like a “spoilt brat” in her relationship with Candy.

"My friends and my sister say 'I hate you' when I show them what he's bought me."

She is currently starring in the British Agatha Christie drama Marple: The Pale Horse.
