Are Brad Pitt & Kate Hudson quietly seeing each other? Probably not.

I’ve been saying for a month or so that we need to get used to the idea that Brad Pitt will probably move on with another woman pretty quickly. Historically, Brad does not like to be alone. I think he’s probably one of those guys who doesn’t know what to do with himself if he doesn’t have a girlfriend or wife. Personally, my worst-case-scenario for Brad involves him dating a 20-year-old Instamodel, but that’s just me trying to manage expectations. But what if Brad’s next girlfriend is someone already well-known? What if he starts up with… Kate Hudson?

A report emerged claiming that Brad Pitt and Kate Hudson have been secretly dating. However a source has exclusively revealed to DailyMail.com that those claims are false.

In a report published on Monday, an insider for Woman’s Day had claimed: ‘Kate is Brad’s mystery woman. They’ve been extremely close over the past few weeks, following several secret meet-ups.’ DailyMail.com has reached out to representatives for both Brad Pitt and Kate Hudson.

The source for the Australian showbiz publication continued by saying: ‘The rumour in Hollywood is that Kate’s a firecracker in the sack, as is Brad. So they’re two big stars who were very attracted to each other and drawn to one another, and they are certainly enjoying each other’s company.’

Adding more fuel to their claims, the weekly reached out to bodyguard Kris Herzog, who previously worked for Brad and estranged wife Angelina Jolie, as he gave his thoughts about the potential couple.

He said: ‘I know both Kate and Brad, and it wouldn’t surprise me at all if they were dating.’

The bodyguard – who is the founder of The Bodyguard Group of Beverly Hills – also said that Kate, 37, is a ‘wonderful woman’ and Brad, 52, would be lucky to date her.

As the Daily Mail says, this story is being denied and it originates in Woman’s Day, that weird Aussie tabloid that makes up a lot of sh-t. But is the idea of this coupling so weird? Kate and Brad run in the same circles. Kate is friendly with two of his exes, Jennifer Aniston and Gwyneth Paltrow. I think Kate is LA-friendly with Angelina too (they both did voice work on the last Kung Fu Panda movie). My guess is that Kate is the one who would have some qualms about starting up with Brad, but on the other side, I don’t think Kate takes it all so seriously. She likes to date guys and have fun and if it’s a little bit messy, so be it. As for Brad… well, sources do claim that he was in LA (not Missouri) for Thanksgiving, and that he didn’t see the kids for the holiday. So who did he spend time with?
