Kelly Brook dines with mystery man at Cipriani... after splitting from Danny Cipriani
Posted by org at 4:56 AMJust hours after confirming she was 'taking a break' from boyfriend Danny Cipriani, Kelly Brook dined out at the rugby star's restaurant namesake in London.
Arriving at Cipriani in Mayfair with an older male companion, the model looked far from heartbroken as she showed off her curves in a tight lace mini-dress.
Of all the restaurants in London she could have dined at, the 30-year-old chose Cipriani, perhaps sending a message to her toyboy ex.

The beaming model looked happy as she clung on to her mystery male friend as they left Cipriani and headed off to the nearby Claridge's Hotel.
The restaurant has recently changed its name to C London, but is still recognisable to its upmarket clientele as Cipriani.
It was Brook's second night out in a row as she hit the London party scene as news of her split from Cipriani after a 22-month romance spread.
On Saturday night, she was seen giggling and talking to Glee star Matthew Morrison at The Wolseley on Piccadilly.

Brook's weekend of socialising came after baring all for her £340,000 Playboy magazine shoot on Friday.
Her arrival back home coincided with news that she and Cipriani, 22, had secretly split two weeks ago.
Close friends told the Mail they have been close to breaking up several times before over the past month, but this time it seems final.
A friend said: 'On two or three occasions Kelly has said: "That's it, it's over" - only for them to sort things out and be back together again the following day.

'This time, though, it looks more serious. It had been rocky for a while but it's really deteriorated recently.'
The pair are said to have split following a make-or-break holiday in California earlier this month.
Last Thursday, back in central London, Cipriani attended a showbusiness party and spent much of the evening with actress Jessica Lowndes, 21, as MailOnline exclusively revealed.

In further revelations, the News of the World claimed the sportsman partied with another aspiring Hollywood actress, Jasmine Waltz, two weeks ago just after splitting with Brook.
He is said to have attended a party with her in the Hollywood Hills while Kelly flew back to London.
Waltz has been linked to Star Trek actor Chris Pine and American Idol presenter Ryan Seacrest in the past.
In February, a source claimed Cipriani had become fed up with Brook telling him what to do.

'She is older and has experienced more,' the source said. 'Even so, he feels claustrophobic sometimes in the relationship.'
The couple appeared to have patched up their differences when it was announced that Cipriani was quitting his club Wasps and joining the Melbourne Rebels.
Brook even announced she was joining him in Australia. But the romance was also put under strain by Cipriani's personal problems.
He told earlier this year how he had undergone counselling after becoming depressed about being dropped from the England team.

A friend said: 'There is no doubt that Danny is a complex young man who can be difficult.
'Kelly, meanwhile, is somebody who likes to get her own way. It's no surprise they have had a particularly volatile relationship.'
Last night a spokesman for Brook confirmed the couple were 'taking a break' from each other.
He told the Daily Mail: 'Kelly and Danny are taking a break but remain close friends and will continue to be a part of each other's lives.'
