Donna Air and James Middleton SPLIT after nearly 3 years

Donna Air and James Middleton have broken up after two and a half years of dating, as he called it quits.

The Sun reports that the pair, who met back in February 2013, are over and that Donna is in bits about it.

A source told the newspaper: "The split happened a couple of weeks ago and it was James' decision. Poor Donna. She's more than a little bit heartbroken.

"But he just didn't think it was going to go the distance. And I think his family were always very anti her being the future Queen of England's sister-in-law."

Woah, woah, woah there… what? As if Kate Middleton would mind who married her 28-year-old baby brother, as long as they were nice to him. Could this be the ACTUAL Queen's doing? Probs not, but still: we hope there was no threat of being taken to the Tower of London that helped James make his decision.

It comes just after Donna's grandmother passed away, which she revealed on Twitter last week.
