James Cook was seen holding hands with a mystery blonde as they left the Chiltern Firehouse on Friday night after a romantic date night.
The ex-husband of Poppy Delevingne, 43, didn’t hold back from showing off his loved one – who is a dead ringer of his former flame.
The businessman dressed down for the occasion, as he donned a quirky silk bomber jacket and a pair of skinny blue denim jeans – and contrasted the quirky look with a pair of white trainers.
James looked in great spirits while leaving the swanky 5-star hotel with his date in tow.
The former model beamed alongside his ladylove as the duo made their way to the car to head home for the night after a romantic evening of fine dining.

Meanwhile, James’ date looked typically chic in an all-black ensemble as she held hands with James as they left the restaurant.
The blonde beauty donned a lace black camisole top which featured a plunging neckline and paired the chic top with a pair of skinny black denim jeans.
She wore a black leather jacket over the top as the evening chill kicked in.
The businessman and his mysterious lady made their first public debut in May when they were spotted enjoying some drinks in Mayfair.
Exes James and Poppy, 37, have not addressed their split publicly but are said to have called time on their union at the beginning of last year.
While the pair are said to have remained friends and still mix in the same social circles, it appears James is now moving on romantically.

And the news was ultimately confirmed by James’ public appearances with his mysterious woman, as well as Poppy’s recent relationship with her toyboy Prince Constantine Alexios of Greece, 24, – as it appears they have both moved on.
The English socialite was seen enjoying the company of her royal beau again earlier this month, as the new couple spent some quality time at the Chiltern Firehouse in London – a place that seems to be the former pair’s favourite.
Despite the 12-year age gap between Poppy, 36, and Prince William’s godson, 24, they are believed to have been enjoying each other’s company for a while now.
The son of Crown Prince and Princess Pavlos, known as Tino to his pals, has often been considered one of Europe’s most eligible royal bachelors.
He is the grandson of Greece’s late King Constantine II, who was a cousin of King Charles and one of Prince William’s five godparents. He died aged 82 in January.
Poppy and James, who works for his family’s aerospace company, tied the knot in 2014 at a Knightsbridge church ceremony, with sisters Cara, 30, and Chloe, 37, among her many bridesmaids.
Rumours started to circulate about their marriage when James resigned as a director of her company Poppy Delevingne Limited, the firm which files the accounts for her ‘photographic activities’.

Celebrity dating app Raya had a new account added in November featuring pictures appearing to be of James, but he never confirmed whether it was his account or if somebody had opened a parody account.
Alongside a series of brooding snaps, James describes himself as a CEO in the business and entrepreneur industry.
One black and white image originally featured on his Instagram page with Poppy in the snap, yet he cropped her out for his dating profile.
He had originally shared the picture on his social media in May last year alongside a birthday tribute to his wife.
The image – which is the last photograph of Poppy on his Instagram feed – was captioned: ‘Happy happy birthday my love can’t wait to celebrate with you when you get home. @poppydelevingne.’
Split: It comes after James and Poppy, 37, have not addressed their split publicly but are said to have called time on their union at the beginning of last year
MailOnline has contacted James and Poppy’s representatives for comment.
The Mail On Sunday reported last January that the pair had ‘consciously uncoupled’ after being little more than friends for the best part of a year.
The following month she flashed her ringless hand to photographers at Perfect Magazine’s London Fashion Week party at The Standard.
Poppy looked gorgeous on the night in a striking black and white gown, enjoying the celeb-packed bash with friends Georgia May Jagger and Iris Law.
The same month, Poppy’s husband James was posting from Chamonix, France, enjoying a ski trip with friends.
It’s believed that Poppy moved into her own place in West London, with an insider spilling: ‘James is refusing to accept things are over.’
Despite the reported split, the pair have continued to mix in the same social circles, with the pair attending Glastonbury Festival together alongside pals Sienna Miller, Alexa Chung and Matt Smith in June.
