Kat Stickler's date with mystery man
Kat Stickler was spotted on a date night with a mystery man just days before reports emerged that she’s dating John Mayer. In a TikTok video shared by Stickler on September 28, the content creator, 30, was spotted at an outdoor restaurant. “Oh no don’t worry I got it,” she wrote atop a clip of a man across the table — who was only shown from the chin down.The hilarious video concluded with Stickler pulling a small brown dog out of her bag — instead of her wallet. “No I know,” she captioned the upload, which she set to Kelly Clarkson’s hit “Breakaway.” Fans immediately speculated that her date — who wore a black polo shirt and rocked a slightly greying goatee — was Mayer, 47.
“So this is John Mayer,” one person wrote, while another remarked, “John Mayer — damn girl. I just heard the tea.” Although their relationship is said to be “very new,” the duo has already been seen together on a few occasions. Deuxmoi reported that last Friday, they were spotted at a private New York City club, sitting side by side in a booth and appearing “very touchy.” The following night, they were photographed at Flyfish Club, fueling further speculation about their romance.

Mayer has previously been linked to a long list of A-list love interests, including Jennifer Aniston, Jessica Simpson, Taylor Swift and Katy Perry, among others. Stickler previously dated “The Bachelorette” alum Jason Tartick, and shares daughter MK with ex-husband Mike Stickler.
“I am sad to share that Kat and I are no longer together,” Tartick wrote via Instagram Stories in October 2024. “It’s fair to say that I love hard with all my heart and fall fast. Sometimes in life, that works out and other times it doesn’t. This time it didn’t.”
Stickler, for her part, also took to Instagram to confirm the split, which she described as “amicable.” However, she said, it “just didn’t work.”
