According to the Daily Mail, Mendes was charmed by her after working with her in his 2006 film Starter for 10, and even more so when she starred in his Bridge Project theatre company shows in New York and London.
"When Kate found out that Sam had grown close to Rebecca, she was upset. Rebecca is totally Sam's type - a thespian mix of brains and beauty," a source "close to Winslet" told the paper.
However, now pals of both Hall and Mendes have denied the claims.
"Yes, they know each other, but that's about it," says an insider close to Hall, who insists, "Rebecca has absolutely nothing to do with their split." In fact, says the source, "she's friends with Kate, too."
"She thinks they are both wonderful people, and it's just not appropriate to look towards Rebecca as the reason [for the split]. This is between Sam and Kate."
A representative for Mendes confirmed saying, "There is absolutely no truth to this. Sam and Rebecca are professional colleagues. That's it."
