The dating reports began after UK tabloid The Sun ran a story which suggested that the pair is more than friends.
"They were trying to keep a low profile but Rob teased Nettie by messing with her hair and they had a flirty play fight," a source told The Sun. "Afterwards they were giggling like teenagers."

"Rob spent some time with Nettie over the holidays in London. She's an incredible contemporary artist, known for her portrait drawings," a source told HollywoodLife.com.
"Rob and Kristen are both collectors of her work. It wouldn't surprise me if Rob was commissioning her to do something cool for Kristen as a Christmas or New Year's gift," the source went on. "Rob and Kristen have very similar tastes when it comes to artwork and Nettie is also a very dear friend."
Wakefield is not the only friend Pattinson has spent time with recently. On New Year's Eve the British actor dined with actress Dakota Fanning among other friends at Juliette restaurant in the trendy Williamsburg, Brooklyn area.
Fanning, 19, is said to be a close friend of Stewart who is currently in Los Angeles.
"[They] came in as a walk-in ... Rob waited at the bar with some of his friends," an insider revealed said adding that the group had to wait "a half hour for their table."
