Law and Stewart a couple?

Jude Law has sparked rumours he is dating veteran rocker Rod Stewart's daughter Kimberly, after pictures of the pair enjoying a steamy clinch were published by a British tabloid newspaper.

The 'Alfie' actor was caught on camera cavorting with the 28-year-old model at a nightspot in Essex, England on Saturday by nightclub revellers who snapped the pair in a passionate embrace.

The snaps, which were published by The Sun newspaper, show the pair passionately kissing in the club's VIP area.

A source tells the publication: "We couldn't believe it when we saw Kimberly Stewart snogging (kissing) the face off Jude Law. They were going at it and barely came up for air."

According to reports, the 35-year-old was enraged to discover he had been snapped - allegedly ordering the club's security personnel to erase the pictures from the reveller's digital camera.

The source tells The Sun: "Two bodyguards then came over to us and snatched the camera out of my friends hand. They passed the camera to Jude, who then looked through our photos."

British star Jude has four children with ex-wife actress Sadie Frost, who he divorced in 2003. He was engaged to Sienna Miller before the pair split in 2006 amid rumours he had cheated with his children's nanny.
