Who needs Kim? Jonathan Cheban enjoys a walk with Kardashian lookalike in London as his BFF heads to Costa Rica with Saint and North

He's been best friends with Kim Kardashian for years - but while she's busy flying to Costa Rica, it seems Jonathan Cheban has easily replaced her. 

The 42-year-old television presenter headed out for a walk in London with a female companion who looked just like Kim, a social media star called Chanelle Sadie Paul. 

While Jonathan was wrapped up against the cold, wearing a padded jacket and ripped jeans and wielding an umbrella, his pal had other ideas.

Look away now! Jonathan Cheban enjoyed a walk with a Kardashian lookalike, called Chanelle Sadie Paul in London as Kim headed to Costa Rica with her family

Chanelle wore minimal clothing, flaunting her ample assets in a red plunging form-fitting dress which was ruched throughout.

The raven-haired beauty wore a black cape over the top and added some extra inches to her height, wearing a pair of nude high heel shoes. 

Her hair was styled into Hollywood curls and she carried a giant clutch bag in her hand as the pair walked down the street together. 

So similar: The lady in question was a dead ringer for Jonathan's best friend Kim Kardashian as she appeared in October 2007 

No doubt Jonathan is missing Kim as she has been pictured boarding a private plane to Costa Rica with her two children, although husband Kanye West was not present. 

An insider for the weekly said the 38-year-old rapper 'was never supposed to come. He is busy working on his music in LA.' 

The trio, however, were joined by momager Kris Jenner and her boyfriend Corey Gamble.

But that was not all as Kylie Jenner was also seen boarding the jet with Tyga as she carried the rapper's son King Cairo on her hip. 

Meanwhile, Jonathan was rumoured to have been joining the Celebrity Big Brother house this year - but the deal fell through over a disagreement over fee. 

However, while in the UK, the reality star has been watching the show and has thrown his support behind controversial housemate, Kim Woodburn. 

He tweeted a picture of her calling her a 'legend.' 

Jonathan's extensive property portfolio already includes a £7 million apartment in New York.

But he is looking to double his investment as he has an eye on a £16 million property in London, close to his favourite shop, Harrods.

A source exclusively told MailOnline: 'He needs to be within 250 metres of Harrods for his weekly shopping sprees - he has spent thousands in the store while he's been in London.'
