Mollie King is dating cricketer Stuart Broad

Mollie King is reportedly dating England cricketer Stuart Broad.

The Saturdays singer is set to go on a romantic date with the hunky sportsman after weeks of flirting on social networking site twitter.

A friend of Stuart told the Daily Star newspaper: ''Mollie and Stuart have been following each other on twitter for a while.

''They've been chatting in private on twitter and have really hit it off.

''Stuart has told close friends he plans to take Mollie out for dinner this Saturday.''

The 26-year-old cricketer is currently in London playing South Africa at The Oval stadium, and wants to make the most of being near to blonde beauty Mollie.

The friend added:''He doesn't have any strict England curfews. He will be free on Saturday night to go out for a posh dinner with Mollie and enjoy a few drinks.''

Mollie, 25, has been linked to Prince Harry since splitting with male model David Gandy in February, but insists the pair are just friends.

Stuart could be just her type since the 'Higher' singer has recently joked about liking men in uniform.

She said: ''I'm single. The girls are going to set me up on dates - I hope! Bring me a nice sailor and I'm there!''
