Is Keira Knightley about to send Rupert packing?

Keira Knightley has been making headlines this week over the startling amount of weight she’s lost recently. But according to the 3AM Girls of London’s Daily Mirror, Knightley may be well on her way to losing her boyfriend as well as her excess pounds.

Keira has been quietly seeing her Pride and Prejudice co-star, Rupert Friend over the last six months. Their relationship began with a bang when they were spotted cavorting in the Bahamas, but these days they seem to be headed in the direction of Dumpsville, USA. Friend and Knightley both admitted that the “It Girl’s� career is to blame for their lack of quality time.

The 3AM Girls caught up with the couple at the afterparty for the London premiere of Pirates Of The Caribbean 2: Dead Man's Chest. Keira told the girls, "I know I've been like a workaholic and I really don't have time for much. I want to spend more time with my friends and family." In response to the query of whether Rupert was behind her desire for free time, Keira said, "I'm going to take time off because of myself mainly, not because of him. Let's see how things go there. I'm working on two new movies, that's what I'm concerned about now."

When the Girls later asked Friend about his romance with Knightley he said, "She hardly ever comes home to me." He also whined about Keira’s role in Pirates, stating, "It must have been a hard job kissing Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom. I'm sure she hated every minute of it!"
