Racy: Sharon played novelist Catherine Tramell in the steamy 1992 thriller Basic Instinct

The star, who has three children Roan, 7, Laird, 2, and Quinn, 1, was joined on her trip to France by a mystery male companion.

The pair, who were staying at the Ritz, emerged hand-in-hand as they headed off for a sight-seeing trip to the Eiffel Tower.
