Leonardo DiCaprio and Blake Lively spilt

Leonardo DiCaprio and Blake Lively have ended their five month romance.

The couple were photographed on a number of dates across the world, including Italy, Monaco and Los Angeles, and the Gossip Girl actress even jetted to Australia to mark her birthday with DiCaprio in August.

The young lovers never spoke about their romance, but representatives for the pair confirmed the break-up news to UsMagazine.com on Tuesday, insisting the two stars would "remain friends".
 
Titanic hunk DiCaprio ended his five-year relationship with on/off girlfriend Bar Refaeli in May and Lively split from her Gossip Girl co-star Penn Badgley in 2010.

The pair met when she auditioned to play Daisy Buchanan in the forthcoming adaptation of The Great Gatsby, opposite Leo In F. Scott Fitzgerald's titular role.

Blake lost out to British treasure, Carey Mulligan, but a dinner with DiCaprio seems to have secure her the role of Leo's girlfriend.
