Kate Hudson and Nick Jonas' cosy dinner date

Kate Hudson and Nick Jonas met up for dinner in New York on Sunday night (01May16).

The 37-year-old actress was first linked to the 23-year-old singer last September (15), before the pair fuelled romance rumours again when they were spotted on a skiing trip with a group of friends back in January (16).

Now the duo has once again reignited relationship claims as they were seen together at Carbone restaurant in Soho.

Both appeared dressed down for the evening, with mother-of-two Kate opting for a sheer purple shirt and bell bottomed jeans, while Jealous singer Nick wore a button down green shirt with dark jeans and a black jacket.

Nick and Kate have both addressed rumours of a romance in the past, with Nick insisting in a recent interview with Complex magazine that he is "very much single".

However, when questioned about the nature of his relationship with Kate, Nick refused to be cornered about whether he and Kate had been intimate.

"Out of my best effort to respect her and her privacy, I'm not going to say if we had sex or not," he said. "But we did have a beautiful connection. Even now I have so much admiration and respect. She's amazing."

Kate has done little to dispel claims that there's something going on between her and Nick, giggling her way through a recent interview when she was questioned about the friendship.

But she did tell InStyle magazine earlier this year (16) that she was fed up of being romantically linked to every man she is pictured with.

"It really feels like high school," she said. "I can't say hello to anybody without (people speculating we're together). I don't comment when I'm single because some of them are right, some of them are wrong. But I end up with everybody anyway! I've been linked to every one of my brother's best friends. We're going to do a coffee table book of all of my 'mystery men'."

Last month (Apr16), Kate was linked to American football star J.J. Watt after the pair were seen out for dinner together.
