‘I’ve never met Tiff. I know who Tiff is, we have very close mutual friends and I don’t know how but we have never met face-to-face, ever. Never, ever, ever. I’ll swear on a stack of bibles. I’ll take a lie-detector test!’ he told news.com.au.

 A News Corp report earlier this week linked Stu to the beautiful blonde socialite, who has recently separated from her husband Ben Tilley. 

‘It’s all complete bulls*** I’m sorry to say,’ Stu said of the newspaper’s claims.

While he has found the rumours ‘comical’ the pub millionaire said he hope the former couple hadn’t been hurt by media reports. 

‘I know Ben and I’ve met him on several occasions. I don’t know where it came from but I just think it’s absurd and I hope she hasn’t been hurt by this because she’s obviously going through a lot,’ Stu said.

Stu’s strong comments come after ia photo emerged earlier this week of Stu having lunch with a beautiful blonde.

In the picture, which was shared by a fan, the blonde beauty has her head down and shields her face with large sunglasses.

However, the woman wore an eye-catching yellow sundress, and given the pair’s prominent position at the famous Sydney eatery, it appears they weren’t worried about going incognito. 

Meanwhile, Stu – who is an heir to the $500 million Arthur Laundy fortune – also opted for dark sunglasses, and wore a crisp white button-up shirt that matched the restaurant’s tablecloths.
