"Pirates of Caribbean" actress Keira Knightley has split up with her model boyfriend Jamie Dornan. Keira met the Irish model in August 2003 and thought they will be together for the rest of their life.

But, because of their careers, with Jamie filming for his forthcoming film "Marie Antoinette", and Keira for "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", the two actors barely saw each other. So they decided to split up.

An insider tells British newspaper the Daily Mirror: "Keira's gutted. She really thought what she and Jamie had was love but it just wasn't meant to be.

"They both wanted it to work but in the end it was just untenable. They were having crisis talks on an almost daily basis so the decision was reached to finally call it a day."
