Rumors that Dale Moss would have cheated on former “Bachelorette” Clare Crawley with a “mystery woman” named Eleonora Srugo are circulating this week around the Internet.
While Srugo has vehemently denied ever having a romantic relationship or dating the former NFL pro, a photo taken in Cipriani Downtown in early November first sparked speculation that the pair were more than friends.
However, sources close to Srugo told Page Six exclusively on Friday that she only ran into Moss, 32, in the Manhattan hotspot and actually went on a date herself.
“Those references for a dinner in Cipriani are incorrect,” her representative, Ronn Torossian, told us. “Mrs. Srugo was with a man and a group of friends she saw in Cipriani. It’s just not true.”
Her publicist added that Douglas Elliman’s real estate agent is “ focused on her real estate career ” and “ has never interacted with Dale and [they] never dated. She was there with someone she was dating at the time. “
E! News previously reported that the outing “definitely looked like a date” and “Dale looked really smiley and happy with her. They laughed and flirted.”
However, a source told Page Six that Srugo was sitting at a different table that night and is not one of the women depicted next to Moss in the photo circulating online. We are told that the woman sitting right next to Crawley’s former fiancé is model Brooks Nader, who is married to Billy Haire.
Earlier in the day, paparazzi snapped photos of Moss, Nader and Rachel Hilbert having lunch in New York and attending a Hugo Boss event. It seems the group went for a drink in Cipriani Downtown, where Moss next happened to run into Srugo.
“You don’t go to Cipriani if you cheat,” said a source. “You’re going to be seen.”
We are told that Moss and Srugo only exchanged a quick greeting and goodbye.
Torossian told us earlier, “They have not been romantically involved in any way. Eleonora was excited about his engagement and wishes him all the best. “
Meanwhile, Crawley and Moss have not commented on the alleged cheating scandal.
The former couple announced they were breaking up after a five-month engagement and a whirlwind romance.
Moss wrote in a statement about the split, “We appreciate the love and support we’ve received from so many people, but this is the healthiest decision for both of us right now. We only hope for the best for each other. “
Crawley then seemed blinded by Moss’s “reciprocal” statement, who wrote on Instagram, “The truth is, I am crushed.”
In season 16 of “The Bachelorette”, Crawley and Moss became engaged after just a few weeks.
Representatives for Moss and Crawley did not immediately respond to our requests for comment.
