Kate Hudson talks breakup with Matt Bellamy amid nights out with friends, Nick Jonas

NEW YORK, Oct. 16 (UPI) -- Kate Hudson was spotted out on the town in New York this week after she detailed her breakup with longtime fiancee Matt Bellamy in a recently published interview.

The 36-year-old actress was pictured entering a Manhattan nightclub to meet with rumored boyfriend, the much-younger Nick Jonas Thursday night. Wearing a sexy jumpsuit and towering heels, she and her apparent new beau, 23, left separately.

In the midst of her reported heightening romance with the "Chains" singer, Hudson shared insight from he recent breakup, calling the ending "painful."

"Relationships ending are painful, and you can choose to carry that or you can choose to reframe it," the Rock the Kasbah actress told Allure magazine for their November issue. "If Matt and I had a great relationship, we would still be together, but we chose to move on because we had different visions of how we wanted to live our lives. That doesn't mean, though, that we can't rebuild something that would be the best thing for the kids."

Hudson and Bellamy have a four-year-old son, Bing, together and are continuing to amicably co-parent the child; Hudson also has an 11-year-old son with ex-husband Chris Robinson.

"[Bellamy and I] said, 'We need to try to create something for the kids where they feel like they're gaining something rather than losing something," Hudson explained about her most recent split. "It's been a seamless transition...Kids just want to see their parents be cool. Everybody's cool; everybody's good."

Hudson, although looking for a "consistent presence" for her family, was first linked to Nick Jonas in September, when they were spotted riding a rollerocaster together in Orlando, Fla.. According to reports, the two are involved in a fling that isn't expected to get serious.

Aside from a budding affair with Jonas, the actress has also been partying with her friends Gwyneth Paltrow and Nicole Richie in Los Angeles this week, sharing a hangover photo on Instagram after a night out. "It's very possible I had one too many last night," Hudson wrote Wednesday alongside a photo of herself holding a to-go coffee cup and peaking over her shades. She tagged the photo with "#MamasNightOut" and "#IHopeImOnTheRightPlane."
