Latin lover doll gets funky chunky after bidding Melanie Griffith adieu.

Antinonio Banderas has packed on the pounds since splitting from Melanie Griffith – and he couldn’t be happier, sources said!

The 54-year-old actor was snapped with a few inches extra on his waistline and a new girlfriend, 34-year-old Dutch investment banker Nicole Kempel.

“Nicole is the total opposite of Melanie,” a pal told The ENQUIRER. “While Melanie was controlling and took issue with trivial things, like how he dressed, Nicole is laid-back.”

Melanie, 57, filed to end their 18-year marriage on June 6, days after exclusive ENQUIRER photos surfaced of Antonio and a sexy date on the French Riviera.

“Since his divorce, he’s fat and happy!” added the pal.
