James Franco and his girlfriend Isabel Pakzad show off some steamy PDA in ...

James Franco and his actress girlfriend Isabel Pakzad packed on the PDA as they enjoyed a sun-soaked getaway together in Mykonos on Sunday. 

While taking a dip in the crystal-clear ocean, the Academy Award nominee,  43, flaunted his chiseled chest while donning a pair of grey swim shorts.

After tanning on a lounge chair under a large umbrella, the couple cooled off in the water, where they engaged in a passionate makeout session.  

Franco and Pakzad were unable to keep their hands off one another as they shared a romantic smooch and frolicked along the shore. 

Pakzad, who showed off her incredibly toned physique in a barely-there, beige bikini, looked completely in her element as she splashed around.   

The pair looked happier than ever as they showed off their continued blossoming romance as they hugged, kissed, and swam around. 

James and Isabel reportedly started dating in November 2017 but have kept their romance predominantly out of the spotlight. 

At the time, it was believed that James chose not to go public with the news he was dating Isabel given that he had found himself making headlines for alleged sexual misconduct just weeks into their romance.

It was claimed that the Hollywood star had previously been 'abusing his power as an acting teacher in a sexually exploitative manner,' PEOPLE reported in January 2018.

In late June, news broke that Franco agreed to pay $2.235 million to settle a lawsuit brought by two of his former students, according to a settlement.

Actresses and ex-students Sarah Tither-Kaplan and Toni Gaal alleged in a 2020 lawsuit that Franco coerced them into sexual situations against their will, under the guise of it being part of an acting course.

The class-action lawsuit also named Franco's partners in the school, Vince Jolivette and Jay Davis.

As part of the settlement, Tither-Kaplan would receive $670,500, and Gaal would receive $223,500 - both minus attorney fees. The remaining $1,341,000 goes to other students in the school, which had locations in New York and Los Angeles - unless they opt out of the settlement.

Franco, Jolivette and Davis 'continue to deny the allegations in the complaint' but 'they acknowledge that Plaintiffs have raised important issues,' according to a 'public statement' section in the settlement.

'And all parties strongly believe that now is a critical time to focus on addressing the mistreatment of women in Hollywood. All agree on the need to make sure that no one in the entertainment industry - regardless of sex, race, religion, disability, ethnicity, background, gender or sexual orientation - faces discrimination, harassment or prejudice of any kind.'

Tither-Kaplan tweeted after news of the settlement broke that she's not commenting on the settlement except to say, 'I’m very lucky to finally have a strong support system. I hope soon my focus can just be on making movies. That’s all I’ve ever wanted.'

Tither-Kaplan and Gaal said in the the class-action lawsuit that Franco and his partners 'engaged in widespread inappropriate and sexually charged behavior towards female students by sexualizing their power as a teacher and an employer by dangling the opportunity for roles in their projects.'

They argued they were victims of fraud, paying $300 a month for an acting school opened by Franco and his business partner Jolivette in 2014. The women, whose ages aren't clear and weren't disclosed in the settlement, further alleged that those who were willing to disrobe in front of Franco and his friends were given special treatment.
