Lara Bingle dating Danny Cipriani?

Lara Bingle is believed to be dating Danny Cipriani.

The Australian swimwear model, whose engagement to cricketer Michael Clarke was called off following her involvement in a nude photograph scandal, was spotted with rugby player Cipriani just hours after performing on Dancing with the Stars at the weekend.

The pair were reportedly spotted "canoodling" on the couch at Melbourne's Laika Bar, according to an onlooker who spoke to The Daily Telegraph.

Earlier that evening, Bingle had revealed that she was going to enjoy a night out with her friend and former Neighbours actress Erin McNaught and her boyfriend Nathan Joliffe. She said: "We are going to have a drink. It's nice to have your friends in town, it makes it more special... but I need a drink after all that [dancing]."

Since moving to Australia to join the Melbourne Rebels, Cipriani has been romantically linked to singer Tamara Jaber and also dated Miss Universe Australia Jesinta Campbell.

Cipriani used to date model and actress Kelly Brook but they reportedly split because his female admirers became "too much" for her.

Bingle's manager Titus Day has denied rumours of a romance but admitted that the duo met on Sunday night, saying: "Lara said he is a nice guy, that's all."
