London: Tulisa Contostavlos has reportedly split from her long-term boyfriend Fazer Rawson - although she appears to be relishing her time as a singleton. The N-Dubz star hit the town with a gaggle of girlfriends and her male PA on Saturday night, flaunting her legs for all to see.
However, behind the smiles the X Factor judge is nursing a broken heart after splitting from her beau and bandmate following a series of bust-ups.
A source told the Mirror: 'It’s all over... Fazer has been out clubbing twice this week without Tulisa, and she, too, has been spending more time with her friends away from him.
'They are insisting nobody else is involved and clearly don’t want to stick the knife in to each other because they’ve been close since they were 11.
'They’ve still got a lot of respect for each other, but they’ve had a very turbulent relationship', the Daily Mail reported.
Just a few weeks ago they appeared to be taking their 18-month romance to another level, publicly parading on a beach in the Maldives despite their usual anonymity as a couple.
Yet this weekend, Tulisa was obviously enjoying her evening out as she grinned from ear-to-ear.
The 23-year-old had prepared for her raucous night out in London by dressing to the nines. Donning a pair of black heels, her tanned legs were on full show as she stepped out in black shorts. She looked on trend with her leather jacket, but kept it feminine with a lilac top printed with flowers.
While her long locks flowing, she put on a lick of pink lipgloss to complete her going-out ensemble.
And she'd obviously spent time prepping her look as she ensured her bare legs were tanned to perfection - which she insists is real from her recent holiday in the Maldives.
Writing on her Twitter page ahead of her night out she wrote to her PA: '@GarethVareys hating cus (sic) I've maintained my tan from the maldives...he's pouring on the st.tropez as we speak LMFAO'
But she perhaps flashed more than she intended as she piled into the back of a car, trying to cover her face up as the night came to a close.
Tulisa had been partying with Gareth and friends at the capital's Maddox club, before moving on to trendy spot Movida.
As she emerged later on in the night she looked worse for wear, but happy as she joked with passers-by.
Tottering in her heels, Tulisa clutched on to one friend's arm to help the star on her way. And she was keen to be spotted as she posed with a grin, before making her getaway in a car.
The singer was obviously intending on a boozy night out, revealing on Twitter as she hit the town that she was 'off to party', while Gareth posted a picture of him and Tulisa up alongside the words: 'Time to get ready! Vodka o'clock b****es!'
But she'd obviously had enough by the end of the night as she used a baseball cap to cover her face. And ever the loyal PA, Gareth carried her black leather bag as he tried to protect her from onlookers.
The singer only recently returned from her Maldives break, having spent the festive season lapping up the sunshine with Fazer at a £1000-a-night resort.
