Nadine and Jesse split?

By Elaine Sheridan

Girls Aloud singer Nadine Coyle and Desperate Housewives actor Jesse Metcalfe have reportedly ended their relationship.

The couple made the decision to end the relationship a few days ago during a phone-call.

A friend reportedly said: “They had a tearful phone conversation at the start of the week and called it a day.

“They have both been flying to spend a few days with each other between work commitments. But it has not been easy.”

The pair had been dating for the last eight months.
