Prince William and Kate 'split up'
Related Articles
14 January 2007
The couple, who met at St Andrews University, have reached an "amicable agreement" to end their relationship, according to The Sun.
The source confirmed the 24-year-old second-in-line to the throne and 25-year-old Kate had gone their separate ways.
The split was caused by the huge pressures on the young couple and because of the time William has devoted to Army life, The Sun reported.
Clarence House refused to comment.
A spokesman for the Prince said: "We don't comment on Prince William's private life."
William is training to be a armoured troop commander at Camp Bovington in Dorset while Kate is working as an accessories buyer.
The couple were widely tipped to one day tie the knot, with speculation mounting after Kate attended William's graduation parade at Sandhurst in December.
It was the first time she had attended such a high profile event where the Queen and other senior members of the family were present.
Dating a future King saw Miss Middleton propelled into the spotlight. She faced a barrage of press outside her home on her birthday in January and recently lodged a complaint with the Press Complaint Commission over alleged harassment, which she later settled.
