Only last week they sparked engagement rumours after enjoying rapturous embraces while holidaying in the Caribbean. But the romance between Lily Allen and her multi-millionaire beau, Jay Jopling, is now over!
Lily, 23, was pictured wearing a large ring on her engagement finger after return from an idyllic holiday in St Barts, prompting speculation that she and 45-year-old art dealer Jopling were a serious item.
But a source close to Lily tells me: 'It's all over – it was basically just a holiday romance. Lily is going away for a year on tour, so it's unlikely she will have much time for a relationship.
The couple were photographed kissing in St Barts on New Year's Day but the romance is said to have upset Lily's father, comedian Keith Allen.
A spokesman for Lily said: 'She is very well and busy promoting her new record.'
