Kate Middleton - the ex-girlfriend of Britain's Prince William - has enjoyed a night out with a new man. The fashion buyer - who split from the prince in April amid reports he was not ready to commit - visited one of William's favorite spots, London's Mahiki club in Mayfair, with her mystery man and a few pals on Wednesday night.

Kate ordered the prince's favorite cocktail, The Treasure Chest, chatted to William's friend Guy Pelly and "got close" with her new male acquaintance.

A source told Britain's The London Paper: "Kate and her date were getting close at their table. She was in unusually high spirits. She had a table within the VIP section and was dancing around."

Other guests enjoying the Johnny Cash themed night included singer Lily Allen and model Lizzy Jagger.

Kate and her mystery man left Mahiki to continue their night at another of William's top hangouts, Boujis in South Kensington.

As they exited the club and clambered into their taxi, Kate's new man put his hand on her knee and the pair giggled together.
