Slumdog Millionaire co-stars Freida Pinto and Dev Patel have called it quits on their relationship, multiple sources confirm exclusively to US Weekly. The now-exes, who met on set of the Oscar-winning movie in 2008, were together for almost six years. "Dev and Freida have broken up," one source said of the couple.
"They have been done for a while." Pinto, who is six years older than Patel, recently celebrated her 30th birthday without the actor this past October. The Immortals actress instead rang in her milestone birthday with Siddharth Mallya. "Freida is single and happy," another source tells Us of the newly available star. "Friends are setting her up."
In an interview for the June issue of Harper's Bazaar Arabia, the Indian beauty was forthcoming about many things, but managed to remain coy about her boyfriend, simply saying that she has become adept at protecting herself in the public eye. However, in previous chats, the two had dubbed each other 'soul mates'.
