Kate Ends the Tour De Lance

Ah yes, this is back in the day when love was blind. Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong are seen here having a playful tennis session while they were still going hot and heavy. From the sounds of it though, the relationship has come to a screeching halt. The two have been pretty inseparable for almost three months, and this may be the cause behind their split as they never really took the opportunity to see if absence really does make the heart grow fonder. The split came just a few days after a ‘meet the parents’ episode where Kate met Lance’s parents at a high profile summit for his Livestrong Foundation. At the meeting it was somewhat implied that Lance may be interested in a career in politics. And well, not long after it looked like his political career was going to be sans Kate as the relationship ended just days after. Reports are that they both realized at the event that their fling was just that, and that it was an amicable split with no ugliness, hatred, or drama. But in fact there are sources that say otherwise. The two have apparently been constantly bickering over their travel schedules which were driving them apart, and at one point even there was a huge blowout resulting in a ‘communication breakdown’ that essentially meant they didn’t talk for about 5 days. To add fuel to the fire, almost two weeks ago, Lance was overheard talking to a reporter who had asked him about his relationship with Kate to which he responded ‘I’m single’. Others close to Lance specifically have said that he does have trouble with women once they realize how self-centered he is. He specifically seeks out celebrities but wants them to put it all on hold to take care of him and his needs. Kate on the other hand has different priorities and has been reported as saying to the Britain Sunday Times,
“Any guy I ever meet is always going to come second to my son. And you get to weed out the boys from the men. You definitely know which ones are the boys.”
So maybe that’s just what happened here. We many never know but it will be fun to see what man candy is next on Kate’s arm.
