11:51 AEDT Wed Feb 2 2005


AP - Hollywood couple Orlando Bloom and Kate Bosworth have split after dating for nearly three years, US magazine People reports.

"They did decide to take some time apart due to their upcoming work schedule, and they remain very close," the couple's representative, Robin Baum, told the magazine. "It was a mutual decision." The couple's split was reported Monday by People.

Bloom, 28, starred in the Lord of the Rings trilogy and last year's Troy.

Bosworth, 22, who starred in 2002's Blue Crush, played Sandra Dee in last year's Beyond the Sea, about 1950s crooner Bobby Darin. The couple began dating in the spring of 2002.
