Rumors have been going around suggesting that Harry Styles has gotten over his break up with Taylor Swift and is now dating 33-year-old model and daughter of Rod Stewart, Kimberly. The two were spotted having a "romantic dinner" last week in Los Angeles, but was it really a date? According to a source who has decided to speak up after these rumors started getting around, this match-up is all just a publicity stunt.

The insider revealed to FOX411's "Pop Tarts" column, that this relationship is just for the cameras:

"Kimberly and Harry are just friends. Rod (Stewart) really likes Harry, so it's good PR for him. There's nothing going on. It's just PR fun."

What is strange is that another insider confirmed this relationship last week, saying, "They were introduced by a mutual friend who set them up. Kim is very strong willed, she goes for what she wants and Harry appreciates that. It is a very new thing and we'll see where it goes. She is exactly his type."

Of course even after the confirmation, yet another source denied the relationship. "Harry's not dating Kim," the source said. "He was flirting with a different blonde at the SoHo House on Friday night."

Well it looks like this might be the case.

MStarz recently reported on the Styles and Stewart's night out with Rod. Here is an excerpt:

"The two joined Rod Stewart and his wife, Penny Lancaster, for dinner at Dan Tana's, an Italian restaurant on Santa Monica Boulevard in West Hollywood. Insiders at the restaurant told TMZ that Styles and Kimberly were flirting throughout the dinner.

Other rumors said that Styles had been after one of Rod's other daughters, the 25-year-old Ruby Stewart.

Kimberly Stewart had a baby with actor Benicio Del Toro, despite the fact that the two were not in a relationship, in Aug. 2011."
