Kate Hudson

Kate Hudson is dating Lance Armstrong, it has been claimed. The 'Fools Gold' actress - who was recently romantically linked to Owen Wilson - spent a romantic weekend with the seven-time Tour de France cycling champion at his home in Austin, Texas.

A source close to the couple said: "Kate and Lance have been dating for a couple of weeks. She and Lance are both physical, passionate people - she's never been happier."

The pair were spotted dining together in Austin on Friday night (16.05.08), and enjoyed a meal with Armstrong's three children at a different in the town on Saturday (17.05.08).

A restaurant insider said: "They looked like they were having fun." Kate first got to know Lance through ex-boyfriend Owen, who is close friends with the sportsman. Lance split from country singer fiancee Sheryl Crow in 2007 after a three-year relationship. Kate has a four-year-old son Ryder with her ex-husband Chris Robinson.
