Actor Alex Pettyfer (“Magic Mike”) and his girlfriend, model Marloes Horst, have broken up.

“I wouldn’t normally do this, as I like to keep my life private,” Pettyfer, 25, said on Instagram. “Despite what may be written, Marloes and I split up due to her being a crazy hot supermodel and her and my work just keeping us apart. It was a mutual decision. We are incredible close and love each other tremendously!!! We are best friends and who knows what the future holds.”

The Dutch-born Horst, 27, wrote similarly that they “split due to our busy schedules. It’s saddening to read these negative articles since we are very close and love each other dearly!

“So we took it into our own hands to say it was a mutual decision, we are best friends and will always remain each other’s family.”
