Furthermore, onlookers reported that the pair arrived together and then left separately the following day.

Meanwhile, Mayer has been in a relationship with Katy Perry since summertime. Speculation over the singer's love life comes as no surprise, as Mayer has been linked to several women in the past, including Jessica Simpson, Jennifer Aniston, and Taylor Swift.
Despite his past, the Grammy Award-winner recently said he was "quite happy" about his relationship with Perry, according to Rolling Stone magazine.
"I'm happy in all aspects of my life," added Mayer. "I'm very happy in all aspects of my life."
