According to friends, commitment shy Russell wasn’t ready for a serious relationship with Geri Halliwell
Los Angeles:
While the couple started dating after becoming close at rehearsals for the Olympic Games Closing Ceremony last month, friends say commitment shy Russell wasn't ready for a serious relationship.
A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Geri was smitten but things have petered out a tad.
"He isn't ready to settle down so soon after coming out of marriage, whereas Geri is probably more ready to have a relationship.
"She wants a [new home] and spent Saturday (01.09.12) dragging Russell around properties near Devon. It probably seemed a little much.
"Russell is a huge flirt and Geri won't stand for any nonsense - her friends are telling her not to get serious about him."
Their split comes just days after Geri admitted the pair were dating.
She confirmed: "Yes. It's been a whirlwind. Is he my ideal man? I'm choosy. I want someone who's trustworthy, sweet and kind.
"All I want is to be in a loving relationship."
