SubscribeKate Hudson, Lance Armstrong cycle separate ways
The romance race is over for Kate Hudson, 29, and her Tour de France cycling champ, Lance Armstrong.
According to Us, they have ended their very high-profile romance.
"There was no drama or ugliness. They just decided to end things," a source tells the magazine. "There is no hatred, just sadness."
Although they had been spotted around in Cannes, Austin, New York and Los Angeles -– neither had spoken publicly about the relationship.
Kate even attended Lance's three-day Livestrong Summit in Columbus, Ohio, this past weekend. That was where the decision to end it was made. To see photos of them at the Backstage Creations suite at the American Century Golf Championship on July 9, where they looked very happy and chummy, click here.
Sheesh, they'd even met each other's families. Lance's mom liked having lunch with Kate at the Ivy by the Shore. And Kate's 4-year-old son, Ryder, went to a June Dad's Day brunch with Armstrong and his father, rocker Chris Robinson.
Armstrong's rep had no comment. A rep for Hudson could not be reached.
They seemed so perfect together. What went wrong? Was it just a spat? What do you think?

It was because of the travel schedule and the fact that they live in different states. How long can you keep that up with kids? Also, she still digs Owen.

My life will be just a bit more pointless not being able to track the minute to minute developments of this tremendously important romance.

Lance Armstrong takes his life and work seriously, somehow I don't think Kate Hudson would fit his profile lady. She appears all giggly and silly? In addition, Armstrong has 3 kids, a tough thing for a woman to be involved with a high-profile man, who already has a ready-made family.

That took a lot of ball.

I think it's the fact that Lance is a Republican and Kate is a screaming Liberal...like all those Hollywood airheads.

Um, Lance is 37, not 33. Born in '71.

Of course it's over.
What sort of decent women is going to stay with a nutcase who campaigns for John McCain... a man who called his own wife a c-nt in public?
Posted by: James McDouglas | July 30, 2008 at 11:02 AM
they are both divorced because they are cheaters and fame whores. She's a b movie actress who plays the same role over and over, and he's retired from steroids and riding around on a bicycle. Give us more dish on the "mad men" cast, now thats got juice.

I don't think they ever got that serious. Everybody dates, you go out with someone a few times, a few months, and then you both realize there's not enough there. Only difference, they had to do it with everyone watching.

Uh, everyone is saying that Kate has the problem and can't hold on to a guy. Lance has been through how many women? Are we still this sexist???

Lance Armstrong is the biggest whore in celebrity-dom and can't stay in a relationship to save his life. Why any woman would hook up with him now is a mystery!

she's lost.

Who's moderating the comments? Three of these are extremely offensive (moderator: please refer to all of the whore comments) -- what's the moderator doing? People are rude and want a forum to say ridiculous things -- you're giving them just that.

Lance is a player and he played Kate. Maybe next he will hook up with Sienna.

He should have married Sheryll Crow...no doubt about it. He really screwed that one up.
Posted by: JJ | August 13, 2008 at 06:51 PM
SHeryll Crow was for him, but he made a big mistake by letting her go.
Posted by: jj | August 13, 2008 at 06:54 PM
he just gets bored after the inital fling and she is the same way...
