Liz loses in love again

Last week it was Shane Warne who called it quits with his girlfriend and now his former fiancee Liz Hurley has reportedly split with her new flame too.

The actress struck up a romance with British multimillionaire David Yarrow earlier this year but he dismissed their relationship when questioned at a recent event in London.

"Yes, I was on her arm for a while earlier in the year but so what," said Yarrow who is a close friend of the royal family.

"I don't feel it helped publicise my career or my work - I prefer my work being promoted through royal connections rather than through Liz."

However, he indicated he was still close with Hurley. "We remain great chums," Yarrow said.

Hurley was engaged to Australian cricket legend Warne before they split late last year.
