Nikki Sixx, 51, has confirmed the end of his relationship w ith LA Ink star Kat Von D, 27.


“I want to wish Katherine nothing but the best in her life,” Sixx writes on his MySpace page. “She has loved and inspired the hell outta me and I know I have done the same for her in these almost two years we ruled the earth together.

“We are taking a break from our relationship for reasons that we will choose to keep personal. You won’t find me saying a bad word about her and I don’t believe vice versa… We have too much wonderful history together to ever deface that.”

In her November 2009 interview with Fox News, Kat Von D talked about her relationship with Sixx, “I learn so much from him — this is the most fruitful relationship I have ever had. We read a lot together and we are really into self-help books and wisdom books and it’s cool — I am constantly learning from him. We are big fans of the ‘Four Agreements’, ‘A New Earth’ and we just finished Dr. Drew’s new book which has made the most impact on me recently. He talks about narcissism and healthy ways to handle it. But (being in the public eye) is difficult — anybody who says it’s not is lying. Especially being in a relationship with someone who is also in the limelight makes it hard not to pay attention to some of the public’s feedback.”

That sucks huh? They were such a cute couple!
