Patsy Kensit has called off her engagement
The 55-year-old actress has decided to end her romance with the 56-year-old millionaire and has now decided to focus her attention on her work instead.
An insider told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "The whirlwind romance has come to a halt and the couple have decided to go their separate ways.
"They have a lot of love for one another, but ultimately, she knew that they couldn’t make it work in the long-term so felt it was best not to move forward with their relationship.
"Patsy has lots of exciting work opportunities at the moment, and she is throwing herself into her career."
The break-up has also been confirmed by Patsy's spokesman.
He said: "I can confirm they have split, and would appreciate that she is given her privacy regarding the matter. She is currently very busy working."
Meanwhile, Patsy previously admitted that she wasn't actually looking for love when she met Patric for the first time.
The actress confessed that she didn't expect to fall in love.
She told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "These things happen when you least expect it. I got set up on a blind date, so there you go."
Patsy also described their relationship as a "companionship".
She said: "I think we have to understand that you are never going to be able to change someone. I use the word companionship. I’m not ruling the intimacy side of things out but relationships are different at this age, and that is good and OK. You have got to be hopeful and grateful."
