The Brokeback Mountain actress – who has a two-year-old daughter Matilda with former fiance Heath Ledger, who died of an accidental drugs overdose in January – sparked rumours she had started dating the director when they were spotted looking “intimate” on a recent trip to New York.

The 27-year-old actress has further fuelled relationship rumours after she and Spike “smooched” throughout their meal at the Little Dom’s restaurant in Los Angeles’ Los Feliz neighbourhood on 2 August.

An onlooker said: “During dinner they would lean in and kiss each other over the table. By the end of the meal, Michelle was sitting on Spike’s lap and they were smooching.”

Earlier this month, Michelle and 38-year-old Spike – who is producing Michelle’s new film Synecdoche, New York – caught the attention of fans as they walked hand in hand around New York.

As they perused a delicatessen, a fellow shopper commented: “Spike had his arm around Michelle and kissed her on the cheeks, then on the lips.”
