Hold on to your handkerchiefs because you could be needing them in about 5 minutes. There are reports online suggesting that Jennifer Lawrence, Hollywood's darling actress, has broken things off with fellow actor Nicholas Hoult yet again, making her single.

Page Six reports that Hoult was spotted earlier this week getting really cozy with Lisa Marie Presley's daughter, Riley Keough, who is a model in her day-to-day life. This happened during No. 8's “Philo Prom” party and eye witnesses confirm the two looked all loved up.

“They were sitting arm-in-arm in a booth with Adam Lambert and Charl Brown,” says one such eye witness, a report that is supported by a secondary spy, who claims that both of them “looked cozy” but adds that Hoult also flirted with “a bunch of other girls.”

Whatever the number of women he was surrounded by that night, the last thing on Hoult's mind was Jennifer Lawrence. This does nothing to improve on the rumors that he and Lawrence have been on the rocks for a while.

The interesting twist in the tale is that Riley and Nicholas have been friends for some time now and speculations are running wild that Nick turned to Riley back in 2013 when he first split up from Lawrence.

He and Riley have worked together on “Mad Max: Fury Road,” but the thing is that Riley herself already has a boyfriend, meaning that if she and Nicholas would have really shacked up, it's a double double-cross and that's never nice.

The first time Lawrence and Hoult broke up it was said to be because he couldn't handle her fame and all the attention she was getting. Seeing as how Jennifer's rank in Hollywood has gone even further up since last year, thanks to performances in films like “American Hustle,” there is a real possibility Hoult has packed up and went his own way.

When they did get together eventually, it was at a time when they were busy shooting for “X-Men: Days of Future Past.” Since the shooting took place in Montreal, the couple was far from the intruding eyes of the paparazzi and their relationship seemed to thrive. As soon as they went back into the limelight, things started to go pear-shaped again.

From the looks of things, Jennifer is suffering from a frequent disease among Hollywood actresses who choose other actors as partners: some men simply can't handle the fact that their partner is more popular and makes more money than them. This leads to frustration and eventually breakup.
