The heiress calls quits on her longest relationship to date...
from MTV News
Now call us crazy, but here at MTV News we really thought Paris Hilton had settled down with Good Charlotte star Benji Madden.
But after 9 months of dating, declarations of love and talk of wanting "3 or 4 babies" the couple have broken up!
The split is thought to have occurred after Paris was spotted getting cosy with ex-boyfriend Stavros Niarchos in Miami at the weekend.
A source told US Weekly “Even though they are still in love, they felt it would be better to just be friends. Benji was overprotective and controlling.
The split comes just a month after Benji told the magazine; "I wear my feelings on my sleeve. I'm very open about how in love I am – Paris and I are very happy."
The pair where thought to be a perfect match with Benji’s brother Joel dating Paris’ BFF Nicole Ritchie.
Paris’ publicist Alanna McCarthy has now confirmed the split but claims that the two “remain very good friends”.
then ..it was also confirmed by a contestant from her BFF show ..so why is she talking about this
“Sadly, it’s true,” Vanessa Fontana, a contestant on Paris‘ BFF show, confirms to Life & Style. “Paris and Benji have split. I love Paris, and I just want her to be happy. I think that they’ll be better as friends.”
Vanessa disputed rumors that the split had anything to do with Paris’ brief reunion with ex Stavros Niarchos this past weekend in Miami. “No, nobody else is involved,” she says. “Paris and Benji were loyal and faithful to each other. I was with Paris in Miami, and Stavros came over to our table, and the two of them talked for literally two minutes. It was a friendly conversation. They definitely did not hook up.”
Paris is said to be devastated by the breakup. “She wishes it could be different,” says the friend. “Benji always treated her like his princess. He’s a really great guy with a big heart and she loves him very much. Maybe at some point in the future, the two of them could try again, but right now, they’re just too different as people.”
