AceShowbiz - Kendra Wilkinson has apparently moved on with Chad Johnson, months after sobbing over her split from her husband of almost nine years, Hank Baskett. The two TV personalities sparked dating rumors after they were spotted on a date.
The 33-year-old model and the former "The Bachelorette" contestant stepped out together for dinner at Rocco's Tavern in Los Angeles on Monday, January 21. They were pictured holding hands and flashing a smile while leaving the restaurant.
According to TMZ which obtained the photo, the pair spent about an hour in the restaurant "on what looked like a date night, and it appeared to go pretty well."
Kendra looked chic in a gray top and dark pants for the outing. She kept herself warm with a padded jacket, while her long blonde hair was let loose. Chad was casually charming in a white shirt, black jacket and jeans.

A source tells E! News that Kendra and Chad's relationship is still early, but there may be sparks between the two as "Chad has always thought Kendra was super attractive." Kendra reportedly isn't thinking too much about their dinner together and is just "having fun."
Another source, however, begs to differ, telling the site that their outing together was simply a business meeting because they had a "work thing" together.
Kendra tearfully announced she and Hank were divorcing in April 2018. Their divorce documents have been rejected by the courts twice due to technical issues. The estranged couple shares two children together, 9-year-old son Hank Baskett IV and 4-year-old daughter Alijah Mary Baskett.
Kicking off 2019, the former Playboy model said she's not in a rush to find a new love. "Lookin for a new love? Nah. Looking to tailor myself to please the eyes of others? Nah. Bettering myself to make people happy? Nah," she wrote on Instagram. "This year I'll be me and let go of anything holding me back only accept eyes of love and support. Healthy and fit enough to play with my kids and dance in the mirror. Healthy and fit enough to climb the highest mountain with my closest friends!"
As for Chad, he is infamously known as "The Bachelorette" villain during JoJo Fletcher's season. He went on starring on "The Bachelor" spin-off show "Bachelor in Paradise", E!'s reality show "Famously Single" and "Celebrity Big Brother U.K.". He's currently starring on MTV's "Ex on the Beach" season 2 alongside Farrah Abraham and his ex-girlfriend Madeline Sullivan.
