Leona Lewis, the woman responsible for song above that single-handedly got me through my last break-up (I am so lame), has broken up with her boyfriend of ten years, Lou Al-Chamaa.
From EarthNews:
The ‘Bleeding Love’ singer and Lou – who met when they were just 10 – decided to call it quits after Leona’s busy work schedule stopped them from being able to spend any quality time together.
A friend told Britain’s Sunday Mirror newspaper: “Things have been under pressure for ages between them and they have finally realised that things are not going to be able to progress.
“Leona’s schedule means she’s in the States a lot when Lou’s in London and then when he goes out she’s over here. Then there’s the fact she’s been totally immersed in preparing for her tour. They have barely spend any time together whatsoever.”
The final straw is believed to have come on Wednesday (16.06.10) when Lou didn’t turn up to see Leona perform at London’s O2 Arena, despite living just down the road in Hackney.
Honestly, thank God for break ups. It sounds like this dude was both unsupportive and holding her back. When a relationship ends, it’s often devastating, but by the time you’ve cried it out, the feeling of freedom and relief is invaluable. I bet that if anything, we’re about to see this woman blow up bigger than ever before.
I think this is another case of guy that can't handle his girl being more succesful than him
