The couple, who dated on-off for five years, were apparently finding it difficult to spend time with each other since the F1 racer is based in Switzerland, while his singer girlfriend is in the US, the Sun reported.

The high profile couple has been together since 2007. They parted ways briefly in 2010 due to the trials of a long distance relationship but were back together.

A source told the publication that it's so hard to keep up a relationship when the couple is barely in the same country as each other.

A lot of people recognise the Formula One former World Champion, Hamilton as Nicole Scherzinger’s boyfriend. But if rumours are to be believed, it would be history now.
