The couple call it quits after less than six months

These two were one of the most unlikely couple in the history of unlikely couples out there. When news that former child star Ashley Olsen got herself involved into a relationship with the chief executive officer of luxury eye-wear brand Oliver Peoples, more than one eyebrow went up in the air.

Their relationship was first reported last year back in September, and from the start, it seemed like far from being a match made in celebrity heaven. Us Weekly spoke to an insider who claims the two have now parted ways.

“He was a great guy and cute, but it didn't work out,” the insider explains. Most likely these two got together because they roll in the same fashion circles. Ashley, one of the famous Olsen twins, has long given up her career in acting and has turned her creative efforts to fashion design.

Apart from being one of the wealthiest 27-year-olds in the world today, Ashley is also very tight-lipped when it comes to her personal life. That doesn't mean that paparazzi don't follow her around, hoping to break that impregnable shell of privacy.

The last romance the media has seen her in was with “Hangover” actor Justin Bartha. The two reportedly went out together from 2008 until 2011. Bartha moved on and recently changed his martial status by marrying his girlfriend over the holidays.

Ashley has also been linked to fashion designer Greg Chair and restaurant owner Scott Sartiano.

As for the recently dumped Mr. Schulter, he became CEO of Oliver Peoples Eye-Wear back in 2006 and managed to do well for himself and the company both. Oakley bought the eye-wear manufacturing company back in 2006 for several tens of millions of dollars, confirming their status in the industry.

Now that Ashley is single again, she has the time to return to her fashion company, The Row, which she runs with her equally famous sister Mary Kate. The twins are said to have amassed a fashion empire worth over one billion dollars, which is more than you can count to in a single day.
