Cameron
Diaz Confirms Timberlake
Split
Cameron
Diaz
and Justin Timberlake
have confirmed they have
split up after more than
three years
together.
Timberlake,
25, and Diaz, 34,
started dating after
meeting at the Kids
Choice Awards in
2003.
In
a joint statement the
couple said their
relationship had ended
"mutually and as
friends, with continued
love and respect for one
another".
They
also said that "recent
speculation" and
"inaccuracies" had
prompted them to issue
the
statement.
Rumours
of the couple's
separation have been
circulating for many
weeks but both had
declined to be drawn on
it until now.
The
pair had fiercely tried
to protect their private
lives during their
relationship, pursuing
newspapers that printed
false stories about
them.
Timberlake
accepted libel damages
from the News of the
World over a fabricated
story that he had an
affair with a British
model.
Cameron
Diaz also accepted
"substantial" libel
damages over a story in
The Sun, which falsely
claimed she was dating a
married man behind
Timberlake's
back.
The
pair co-star together in
the upcoming animated
sequel, Shrek the Third,
which is released in the
UK in June.
