George Clooney and Stacy Keibler have broken up after ther two year relationship dissolved. Sources speaking to People magazine have suggested that the split was due to a disparity between the couple's hopes and aspirations for the future: "Stacy called it quits. She wants to have children and a family someday. She knows where George stands on that." Sources sharing with TMZ.com revealed that not only was the issue of children a fatal flaw in the stars' relationship, their busy working schedules meant that they've been growing further apart recently.

Clooney has been working hard in Europe filming the WWII drama, The Monuments Men, whilst Keibler has been devoting all her time to her new TV show, Supermarket Superstar. Due to Clooney being set to stay in Germany until December, the anticipation of a long-term distance relationship began to take its toll on 33 year-old Keibler who wasn't so keen on the idea. "Both sides realized there is no way to have a relationship when you don't see each other," said TMZ's source as the pair agreed that at this point in time it would be better to go their separate ways, rather than pine for a lover who was thousands of miles away.

Clooney reportedly consoled Keibler as they decided to break up over the phone, reminding the former WWE wrestler that their friendship would stay strong after they separate. Apparently the couple haven't seen each other since March when Keibler visited Berlin and spending the july fourth holiday far apart was particularly tough to deal with. Stacy attended at glitzy Hollywood party thrown by top manager Guy Oseary, whilst George was snapped enjoying a more relaxed holiday, on his boat near his home at the stunningly tranquil Lake Como. 52 year-old Clooney will still live with Keibler for the time being, but it is unconfirmed how often he will travel back to the states whilst filming.

Ocean's Eleven star Clooney has previously neither confirmed nor denied rumours that he is gay, having explained to Advocate, "the last thing you'll ever see me do is jump up and down, saying, "These are lies!" That would be unfair and unkind to my good friends in the gay community. I'm not going to let anyone make it seem like being gay is a bad thing. My private life is private, and I'm very happy in it," whilst his sister Adelia Zeidler has stated that although her brother is not gay he had no plans to marry Stacy Keibler.
