Criss & Holly's Love Disappears into Thin Air
The final curtain has dropped in the relationship between Criss Angel and Playboy cover girl Holly Madison! Poof!
"Criss and Holly are no longer a couple. They remain very close friends and wish each other the very best," a rep for Angel told E! news. Another magical relationship sawed in half.
The former "Girl Next Door," 29, and the magician, 41, began dating last October soon after it was announced that Holly and longtime beau, 82-year-old Playboy founder Hugh Hefner had called it quits.
A friend of the couple confirms that their split was mutual. "She was very much in love with him, and they're still very close friends," the source says of Madison. "It was a conflict of schedules. She felt she couldn't devote 100 percent of her time to Vegas and his career at the expense of her career and her goals."
Holly, who was living with Criss in his Sin City home, has reportedly moved back to Los Angeles. Angel's show, "Criss Angel Believe," is currently showing five nights a week at the Luxor.
