Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel have split according to recent reports.
Speculation that there was trouble in paradise began in late September, however those rumors seemed to be squashed when it was learned that Justin and Jessica were planning a trip to Africa to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro to draw attention to the global water crisis.
In an interview with GQ magazine, Timberlake said he was preparing for the climb by training four times a week to get his V02 levels up to expand his lungs.
“We’ll climb for a week straight, carrying 30 pounds on our backs. It’s going to be intense, but it’s going to be so rewarding,” he told the mag.
But while Jessica made the trip, and climbed to the top of the summit today with Emile Hirsch and Isabel Lucas, Justin was nowhere to be seen.
According to Hollyscoop, the couple haven’t been seen together since late October, and Justin hasn’t been spotted publicly since the Golden Globe nominations on December 15.
While the break up hasn’t been officially confirmed, it doesn’t bode well for the relationship that JT’s own grandma, Sadie Bomar, said in an interview that her grandson had no intentions of marrying Jessica.
“As far as we’re concerned, he’s always been single. The girlfriends come and go, but we believe nothing has ever been serious. Justin does his own thing and he isn’t ready to marry just yet,” Bomar told Closer magazine.
