"It's new. They're having fun," a source close to the rumored couple told People.

Cruz, who was crowned the winner of the prestigious pageant in 2007, was spotted multiple times hanging out at the studio as Seacrest filmed "American Idol" last season.

The couple met in February at the hit reality TV show's producer's star-studded 40th birthday bash. They hit it off really well as they partied along with Khloe and Kim Kardashian, Randy Jackson and Paula Abdul.

Following their first meeting, the two reportedly went on several dates, including a dinner date at West Hollywood's Il Piccolino on May 10. Neither of the celebrity has spoken about each other yet.

Earlier this year, Seacrest was linked to another beauty. The TV personality was romantically linked with Nashville-based model, Renée Hall. Prior to that, the host was famously in a relationship with his personal trainer Shayna Taylor for 18 months before splitting in December 2014.

The Emmy award winning producer has also dated "Safe Haven" actress Julianne Hough for three years until March 2013. The host, who seem to have a fixation for blonde woman, had gushed during an interview in the past that he is eagerly looking for a stable relationship, the kind his parents have for last 40 years.
