This may answer may shock some people but...
He may not have a problem. If his ex is acting like that, she may not want to go and thinks by being rude he WILL break the date.
She may be nudging him in that direction.
He could talk to her and phrase it to give her a great big out.
I asked a guy to our formal who accepted ONLY because he wanted to go to our formal. At 11:00 he said, "I promised my GIRLFRIEND I'd stop by before I went home so we gotta leave." BUMMER... I wish I had known ahead what a total waste that evening would be.
My daughter JUST broke a date with some guy. WHY? He told her "If you need to reach me I'll be at _________(insert girl's name) house drinking before we go." The date was a set up and she explained everything to her friend. No, not the nicest thing to do, but the guy was a hideous lush and obnoxious to boot. Do I think she did the right thing? I trust her decision & instinct.
Sounds like neither of them really wants to go as is. If he approaches it like, "I've met someone...I know you were being nice...I don't want to hold you to our date..." It could get him out of it. IF SHE ALREADY BOUGHT THE DRESS-TAKE THE EX. (Could he find someone else who might really like to take her?)
