(Newser) – More than a year later, at least one group of Israeli nationalists has gotten its wish: Bar Refaeli and Leonardo DiCaprio have split. The Israeli model rekindled her romance with DiCaprio last year after a four-year relationship that ended in 2009, but now they have grown apart, a source tells the New York Post. The source insists no third party was involved, although Refaeli was spotted with a mystery man this week, and adds, "neither were ready to settle down, and both have busy careers that have been taking them in different directions."

Couples who look uncannily like brother and sister are creepy.

Bar Refaeli's career has suffered significant damage in Israel because she was dating a gentile. Seems more than a little ironic to be hearing that from the folks who scream racism and anti-semitism all over this planet in the loudest voices available. I guess it depends whether you're pitch'n or catch'n.
