Hotel heiress Paris split from the Good Charlotte rocker because the pair are ‘just too different’ and have been spending too much time apart.

According to Paris, "She is going to enjoy being single for a while." Paris and Benji originally got together through Benji's brother Joel and Paris' best friend, Nicole Richie, who have an 11-month-old daughter Harlow together. But soon Paris found Benji overprotective and controlling.

A representative for 27-year-old Paris has confirmed the break-up, although an official statement has not yet been released. Paris has recently been away from Benji, filming her new reality TV series in the UK - 'Paris Hilton's My New BBF' [British Best Friend].

News of the split comes as a shock, as many were expecting an engagement announcement from the couple, who have dated for nine months.

Sources close to Paris were also quick to deny Paris' ex-boyfriend Stavros Niarchos has anything to do with the split, after they were spotted together.
