Ed Simons and Lily Allen Break Up

Sorry, Lily Allen: we know you had being included in celebrity gossip tabloids.

But we can't help it now that the singer - jut a few weeks after a tragic miscarriage - has been dumped by boyfriend Ed Simons.

The couple had only been dating since September.

"They tried to make things work but couldn't," said a friend of Allen's.

"The miscarriage was a horrible experience for both of them - and in recent weeks the mood between them had been really strained."

The pal of Lily Allen added:

"Lily is really upset things haven't worked out for her and Ed. She had talked about settling down for good and having a family. But there is a big age difference and the heartbreak they had to cope with was too much too early in their relationship."
