Cricketer Michael Clarke spotted at a birthday lunch with his rumoured new socialite girlfriend Rique Miroshnik

Michael Clarke has been spotted with Sydney socialite Rique Miroshnik again, fueling rumours the pair are dating. 

The cricketer, 42, cosied up to the beauty queen in Double Bay when they attended a friend’s birthday lunch together on Friday, reported Herald Sun on.

Arriving by Uber at 3pm, the former Australian captain appeared to be in good spirits as he spent quality time with his friends at Neil Perry’s Margaret restaurant. 

While friends close to Michael insist he is ‘single but dating’ and not involved in anything ‘too serious’, he and Rique sat next to each other throughout the lunch. 

The same group of friends, which included property developer Max Shepherd, were also reported to have spent time together at another recent birthday party – this one hosted on a superyacht in the Sydney Harbour. 

According to The Daily Telegraph, Michael has been spending a lot of time with Rique (pictured) who is the ex wife of plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Miroshnik

According to The Daily Telegraph, Michael has been spending a lot of time with Rique who is the ex wife of plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Miroshnik.

Michael and Jade Yarbrough are reported to have split earlier this year following their wild Noosa brawl which captured the nation.

An alleged friend of the pair told The Daily Telegraph last week the couple are ‘definitely no longer together’.

Jade and Michael’s relationship has been under scrutiny since they got into a bust-up on January 10 which included her sister Jasmine and Today show host Karl Stefanovic. 

It took place in a Noosa park when she accused the cricketer of sleeping with his ex, P.E Nation designer Pip Edwards.

The couple appeared to rekindle their fraught romance in early March, when Jade was spotted spending time at the cricketer’s Vaucluse mansion.

However, it seems things have taken a turn.

The video begins with Jade screaming at Michael before she slaps him in the face and pushes him away after the cricketer insists he didn’t cheat on her. 

He then swore on his daughter Kelsey Lee’s life he did not cheat on her but Jade refused to believe his desperate protests and claimed she spoke to Pip.

A remorseful Clarke later took full responsibility for what happened.

‘I’m absolutely gutted I’ve put people I hold in the highest regard in this position. My actions in the lead-up to this altercation were nothing short of shameful and regrettable,’ he told The Daily Telegraph.

‘I am shattered that because of my actions I’ve drawn women of class and integrity, and my mates, into this situation.’
