Crist's new gal pal?

New York Post's gossip page gives us a little more context on that Trump fundraiser (see below). Page Six reports that Carole Rome, currently divorcing Bluestar Jets CEO Todd Rome, is dating our governor:

"They met about four months ago and have been together ever since," spies said. "Carole has been living on Fisher Island since she left Todd in July, and Charlie takes her to Miami Heat games." Crist also rented an estate on Ox Pasture Road in Southampton last August so Carole could be closer to her kids."

An estate in the Hamptons? Crist spokeswoman Erin Isaac tells the Buzz, "The governor did not rent in the Hamptons." As for Crist's relationship with Rome, "She is a friend."
