(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Alec Baldwin is "really into" a 28-year-old yoga studio director he's been dating.

The 53-year-old was first spotted with Yoga Vida studio director Hilaria Thomas at a party to celebrate the 120th anniversary of Carnegie Hall in New York last month. Hilaria studied at New York University, graduating in 2007, and the actor is said to be smitten with her.

"He's really into her," a source told New York Post. "He's taking her to the Tonys [Awards]."

How the couple met isn't known, and it's also not clear how long they have been dating.

When the publication contacted Hilaria to get a comment on the story, she refused to talk. "I'm not going to answer these questions," she said.

Alec's representative was more forthcoming. His spokesperson is renowned for giving witty sound bites when quizzed about the star's personal life, and proclaimed: "He's actually been dating Russell Brand down in South Florida."

Alec married Kim Basinger in 1993 but they divorced in 2002. They have 15-year-old daughter Ireland together and after their split they struggled to reach a custody agreement. Alec has previously alleged Kim made it hard for him to see Ireland, while a voicemail of him calling his daughter a "rude, thoughtless little pig" was made public in 2007 after she failed to answer the phone for a planned call.
