Apparently, Demi Moore recently tweeted that an implication that she had had a row with her husband and is now trying to get over it. But, as celebrity rumour mills go, someone quickly decided this was enough to start saying that this may be a sure sign that the couple are splitting up.

Now, I don’t know about everyone else, but when I’ve been in a long relationship, occasional fights were normal. Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher (who is 15 years her junior) have been together for around 8 years. I’d say it was worrying if there WEREN’T any fights or wobbles to report.

This is all People magazine have to justify their hard-hitting headline: On Sept. 23, Moore shared a quote from Greek philosopher Epictetus, writing, “When we are offended at any man’s fault, turn to yourself & study your own failings. Then you will forget your anger.”

Demi Moore has been Tweeting all sorts of nonsense again

What part of that statement says “I’m splitting up with my husband”?? What it looks like to me is an attempt to resolve any conflict and move on. But apparently OTHER rumours have also been floating around – for example that 33-year-old Kutcher has been doing the dirty on Moore, who is 48 and does not look it.

The pair also spent their sixth wedding anniversary – Sept. 24 – apart and have both curbed their prolific tweeting, says People. “Kutcher allegedly arrived in San Diego on Sept. 23 for a weekend of partying with his former That ’70s Show costar Danny Masterson. Among their stops: Fluxx nightclub, where they had a VIP table. The actor also refrained from tweeting anything on his wedding anniversary.”

Well ok, maybe they’re going through a rough patch. It’s hardly a shocker, given they’ve been together so long. But actually, it was pretty stupid of her to tweet anything so suggestive in the first place. She is a bit of an attention-seeker. Remember all those weird, sexy photos she posted of herself on Twitter, clearly to prove that age has not got the better of her.

Anyway, Moore has been in New York City to promote the short film she directed as part of Lifetime’s TV anthology, Five. The actress attended the premier along with Jennifer Aniston, who also directed a short, on Monday night.

Neither actor’s rep has commented.

Actress Minka Kelly and baseball star Derek Jeter have called time on their three-year relationship, her rep told People.

“They care about each other and it was amicable,” says a source. “They’re still friends.”

31-year-old Kelly was often seen cheering for her now ex-boyfriend, 37, at New York Yankees games and was there when he got his 3,000th hit in July.

Minka Kelly was voted sexiest woman alive

The pair, who have famously kept their relationship very private, got together in May 2008 and were rumoured to have become engaged earlier this year.

Kelly, who has starred in The Roommate alongside Leighton Meester, was voted Esquire’s sexiest woman alive last year. She is due to appear on a TV reboot of 70s classic Charlie’s Angels and recently began filming in Miami.

The new series is said to be a modern adaptation of the infamous story of three female private detectives – Charlie’s Angels – who meet when they are all employed by the same mysterious man.

Ramon Rodriguez, star of The Wire, iss et to play the role of Charlie’s assistant Bosley and the ABC project will be headed by Sony Pictures TV and Drew Barrymore’s production company, Flower Films.

[adsense]Barrymore herself is more than familiar with the cult show, starring in the two-part movie remake, Charlie’s Angels in 200 and Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle in 2003, alongside Lucy Liu and Cameron Diaz.

 Other couples who have recently announced their split include Latino singers Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony and Jeff Goldblum and his teeny girlfriend.

After Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony announced that their seven-year marriage had ended ‘amicably’, we’ve all been waiting for the onslaught of comments from ‘close sources’ dishing the dirt on their ‘friends’. Five days on  and the time has come.

According to People, the couple’s claim of reaching an amicable conclusion on all their marital matters is even more surprising than the split is to us. In fact, the pair had apparently been arguing non stop for the past months.

Jennifer Lopez

One of the last times Lopez, 41, and Anthony, 42, were in the public eye together, they were sharing the stage (and a passionate kiss) at the May 25 American Idol final. But all was no well in paradise. A source close to the Latino duo said the arguing was getting out of hand and that “Marc and Jennifer decided it’s best to go their separate ways for the sake of their two kids.”

On top of that, there were apparently issues on a movie set, envy on the set of American Idol and times when Lopez thought her husband was being unfaithful – a claim an insider from the Anthony camp disputes. “They started to see life differently,” the source says, adding that Anthony had always been extremely supportive of his wife’s career.

The insider says the break up is for the best: “Though they love, admire and respect each other very much, they just needed to be apart.”

Marc Anthony in better days

In any case, both are putting on a brave face. Anthony spent the weekend in Colombia, where he delivered an upbeat performance and even joked about his marital woes on-stage. “They’re saying I’m single,” he apparently told the audience. But reports from Bogota say the star was unusually distant.

Anthony apparently kept to himself in his hotel room, in stark contrast to other times he’s been in town, another source told People. “Everything he ordered was by room service. He was distant from people.”

His guitarist Mario Sebastian was more optimistic and said “He’s a performer. He is as confident as all the band members are. The show always will go on.”

[adsense]In the meantime, Lopez has also immersed herself in work by shooting an ad campaign for her Kohl’s fashion line. A source said the singer is “doing ok” and has been spending a lot of quality time with her children and family in L.A.

The insider added: “She is, of course, sad that she and Marc didn’t work out, but they both feel they have tried everything.”

Of a similar age, both of Puerto Rican descent, both Latin artists with a musical background, they had more in common than the often bizarre couplings that Hollywood attracts. Think Jeff Goldblum and his teeny girlfriend (recently split), pensioner Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta Jones, Genghis and Chaka Khan etc.

We thought Lopez and Anthony had it made. In photographs the duo always appeared very much in love with one another and their body language seemed to mirror that. So it comes as something of a shock to find out that just one year after they renewed their marriage vows, the relationship has disintegrated to the point of no return.

Former Westlife star Brian McFadden and his Australian singer fiancee, Delta Goodrem, have decided to call it quits on their four-year relationship. Fortunately, if their joint statement is anything to go by, there are no bad feelings between the two – their decision to go their separate ways  is mutual and amicable.

As is increasingly the norm these days, news of the break up became public knowledge via Twitter, with 30-year-old Brian posting: “I love Delta and always will. She is one of God’s living angels. I thank her for giving me the best years of my life. Please give us time x”

Brian, who moved down South to be with Delta, 26,  also recently poured out his heart on Twitter with a Valentine’s message, giving no indication that there was any trouble brewing in the love front: “Happy valentine to the most beautiful thing to ever arrive on this planet. My angel, my soul mate, my best friend, my life. @delta_goodrem x’

They first met in 2004, when Brian — at the time still married to former Atomic Kittens singer Kerry Katona, and with whom he has two children — asked Delta to sing a duet with him.

Well, their days as a duet are over…

“Delta Goodrem and Brian McFadden regretfully announce that they are no longer engaged, and after much consideration, have mutually decided to end their relationship,” their joint statement reads.

“This decision has been made with a lot of soul searching from both parties with the realisation that they have grown apart.

“They leave the partnership with respect for one and other, wishing each other success and happiness for the future.”

Another couple who recently split, just months after announcing their engagement is Sienna Miller and Jude Law.

Read about other recent celebrity split ups: Keira Knightly and Rupert Friend, Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds, Taylor Swift and Jake Gyllenhaal, Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens, and John Mellencamp‘s divorce.

Hearts will break all across the world. Including Vanessa Hudgens’, who was nowhere in sight when her heartthrob ex-boyfriend Zac Efron stepped out onto the red carpet with a new lady on his arm – actress Teresa Palmer.

This appearance has once and for all quashed rumours of a possible reconciliation between 22-year-old Hudgens and Efron, 23, who met on the set of High School Musical and dated for four years.

Efron took his new date to the screening of her upcoming film Take Me Home Tonight on Thursday.

“There was definitely some hand-holding,” a source tells People of the couple at the event’s after-party at L.A.’s Pink Taco restaurant. “The two ate together and seemed really engaged in conversation. They seemed really into each other…They weren’t trying to hide their affection at all, even though they knew people were watching them.”

According to Perez Hilton, that was just the beginning of the night. The celeb blogger claims Efron and Palmer later left the party together and headed over to West Hollywood’s Voyeur, where they were seen “getting handsy” with each other, dirty dancing and even making out.

Another source told People that Efron “gave high-fives to his friends” and watched the barely dressed go-go dancers “slide up and down the wall” with “a huge smile on his face.”

“Zac chatted with Teresa for awhile,” the source added. “She leaned in close so she could hear over the music [while Zac was] smiling and slightly flirting with her. There was no overt PDA, but he was not shy about giving her leg the occasional touch.”

While Zac is out having fun with an attractive blonde, Vanesssa Hudgens has chosen to focus more on her career. “It’s going to be a very, very busy year,” she said in an interview with People. “I have three movies coming out in the next year, so I’m excited to see what the future is going to hold.”

[adsense]The Disney star also said of her current relationship with Zac Efron: “We’re good.”

Let’s hope the news of his bid to move on from their break up does not stir any unhappy feelings.

British actors Keira Knightley and Rupert Friend have decided to end their relationship after 5 years together.

The 25-year-old Pirates of the Caribbean star has been left heartbroken, even though the split was a mutual decision.

Keira’s father, theatre and TV actor Will Knightley, confirmed the separation to The Sun, saying:

“Yes, they have broken up. But that’s the way things go, unfortunately. The only option is to get on with things.”

Speaking from the family home in Richmond, South West London, Mr. Knightley added: “They were together for quite a long time and it is always hard breaking up. She’s focused on her work.”

The couple met on the set of Pride and Prejudice in 2005. Knightley was starring as Elizabeth Bennett, while Friend played Mr. Wickham.

Sources close to the pair have said that the decision to split was in part due to the pressure of constantly being in the public eye.

“Rupert hates the idea of being followed and photographed. Keira partially had to accept it because of her rising profile,” a friend told The Sun.

“It affected the harmony in the relationship. The pressure took its toll and both decided they should go their separate ways. They will remain life-long friends.”

Knightley’s career has recently gone from strength to strength, earning her an Oscar nomination and even a deal with Chanel. The actress is now thought to have amassed a fortune of almost $50 million, according to the Daily Mail.

Yet Keira has also admitted that she finds it difficult to deal with constant media scrutiny. In an interview for the January issue of Vogue the star made her feelings clear, the Daily Mail cites:

“I was told very early on that if I didn’t go out to openings and parties and events I would be left alone. I didn’t, and they still didn’t leave me alone,” she told the fashion magazine.

[adsense]“I knew it was part of the deal in the life I had signed up to, but the fear of it has never left me…I’m still not good at being recognised. I wear scruffy clothes and hats and keep my head well down.”

The actress also talked about taking a break from acting after spending years working non-stop and even wondered whether she would come back at all.

“I wasn’t enjoying what I was doing and I felt terribly guilty about that. I remember hating the idea that I was in a privileged position and couldn’t see the point of any of it,” she said.

“I had worked solidly since I was 16, till 22, and I had not been on holiday in all of that time. I didn’t know if I was going to go back to acting at all. I think for a long time I thought I wouldn’t.”

Keira Knightley will not be starring in the fourth Pirates of the Caribbean movie On Stranger Tides but is due to appear on the big screens later this month in Never Let Me Go.

Keira and Rupert are the latest in a number of A-listers calling it quits on their relationships. Read here about Elizabeth Hurley and Arun Nayar, Dexter stars Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter, Christina Aguilera and Jordan Bratman, and Courteney Cox and David Arquette,
