Lily Allen has split up with her Chemical Brothers boyfriend, Ed Simons.
The break-up was reportedly instigated by Simons and comes just weeks after Lily suffered a miscarriage.
According to sources close to the pair the relationship came under pressure as they fought to get over their grief. After numerous attempts to mend the relationship, Simons made the decision to call time on it.
One friend told The Sun: 'They tried to make things work but couldn't. The miscarriage was a horrible experience for both of them – and in recent weeks the mood between them had been really strained.'
The source added: 'Lily is upset things haven't worked out, but there is a big age difference and the heartbreak they had to cope with was too much too early in their relationship.'
