(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Kim Kardashian pulled the plug on her romance with Miles Austin.

The reality television star began dating American footballer Miles Austin earlier this year, following the end of her romance with Reggie Bush. Over the weekend speculation they had split was rife, and it has since been reported the relationship ended several weeks ago.

Although neither has spoken publicly about the split, it seems Kim realised things werent working. It was Kim that decided to pull the plug on their relationship, a source told RadarOnline. It was just so difficult because of their hectic schedules to keep their relationship intact.

Kims family have been urging her to branch out and date a different kind of man in the future. They reportedly think things will never work out for her with a sportsman, and her sister Khlo has a very specific kind of love interest in mind for the 29-year-old.

Get a man...no boys she said, when asked her advice for Kim. I think [she needs] the complete opposite of what she has, like an older businessman... late 30s, early 40s.

Meanwhile, Kim has discussed her decision to have Botox injections. The star was seen undergoing the skin smoothing procedure in a recent episode of her reality programme Keeping Up with the Kardashians, and was left with a bruised eye. She insists that is normal, adding she was more than happy with the doctors work. Kim admits freaking out when she saw the black eye, but wants people to know why she was really worried.

I am not against Botox, and I would never judge anyone else for getting any kind of surgical or non surgical procedure, but I think when youre young there are other ways you can look after your skin, and some amazing products on the market that help keep you looking young and beautiful, she wrote on her blog. Botox just wasnt necessary for me at this age. (C) Cover Media
