Former Gov. David Paterson was spotted on a date with a 20-something mystery woman at the Bowery Hotel on Saturday night.
Page Six previously reported that divorced Paterson had been dating his staffer Pamela Bane for 18 months till they split earlier this year.
“It seemed new,” said a spy, who added the woman was Asian.
“They were sitting on the couch talking for a few hours. She looked into the conversation, she was laughing.”
They stayed till around 2:30 Sunday morning.
But Paterson’s rep told us, “It was definitely not a date,” and the woman “is dating a friend of his and they had all been together just before those two stopped for a drink.”
A drink that lasted until the wee hours.
