British tabloids are alert to the possibility of a romance between freshly divorced Guy Ritchie and Jemima Khan, millionaire heiress and recent Hugh Grant fling, the New York Daily News notes. The pair “got along like a house on fire” at two London dinner parties earlier this month, the Daily Mail adds.

The ink is barely dry on the divorce accord between director Ritchie, 40, and Madonna, 50; Khan, 33, was married to Pakistani cricket star Imran Khan until 2004. A source says American Idol mastermind Simon Cowell might be trying to make it a triangle with Ritchie and Khan: “Guy was totally ensconced chatting with her and seemed rather miffed when Simon Cowell unashamedly stuck his oar in and started flirting with Jemima.”
