Kate Beckinsale had a very sassy response to fans quizzing her over new rumours that she is dating SNL star Pete Davidson.

The British actress couldn’t help but offer a witty response when a fan commented on a snap of her model mother Judy on Instagram.

The comment read: “Dear heavens, Kate. Not Pete Davidson.”

But Beckinsale was having none of it as she sassily responded: “No that’s my mother, easy mistake.”

Romance rumours surfaced after reports claimed the pair were seen “leaving together” after the Golden Globes party on Sunday night.

An insider told Page Six TV the couple were “flirting all night and sipping champagne” at the event.

Standard Online has contacted representatives of the pair for comment.

After a difficult year for Grande, the star admitted 2018 had been the “worst year of my personal life”, resulting in her drinking more than usual.

She told Billboard: “I don’t think I’ve ever consumed more alcohol than I have in the past month. I am champagne.

“You know how people say we're 60 percent water? I'm 60 percent pink Veuve Clicquot.”

The singer’s break-ups inspired Thank U, Next, the record-breaking track that saw Grande thanking her exes for the lessons they taught her. The lyrics spawned thousands of memes, while the nostalgic video set a new record for YouTube’s most streamed video in the first 24 hours of its release.
