Former Spice Girl Geri Halliwell has dumped her latest boyfriend after it emerged he was still married.

Geri, 40, began dating online betting consultant Anton Kaszubowski, before Christmas after being introduced at a party by friends.

The relationship quickly developed, with the couple enjoying a romantic trip to Rome, dinner dates in London and a day out shooting in the Berkshire countryside.

It's over: Geri Halliwell has reportedly dumped her millionaire boyfriend Anton Kaszubowski after it emerged he was still married

But it then emerged the millionaire entrepreneur – who founded gambling consultancy Greenlaw Limited and whose previous girlfriends are understood to have included Jimmy Choo co-founder Tamara Mellon – was still married to Russian model and dancer Zoryna Ayzenshtat.

Former City banker Mr Kaszubowski, 38, who won a scholarship to read history at Magdalen College, Oxford, married Miss Ayzenshtat, 33, in July 2010.

The couple were understood to have separated at the end of the following year.

Last night a source close to Geri confirmed the relationship had run its course, adding: ‘Geri said it’s not a big deal but she felt they were never really more than good friends.’

The break-up is the latest heartbreak for Miss Halliwell, who found fame with the Spice Girls in 1996 and is now believed to be worth over £20 million.

The star, whose ex-boyfriends have included Chris Evans and Robbie Williams, has been engaged three times but has never married and admitted in a previous interview: ‘I think we all know that relationships haven’t been one of my strong points.’

The relationship with Kaszubowski, who counts former politician Jeffrey Archer among his friends, came just months after her fling with controversial comedian Russell Brand.

But Geri has never let her chequered love life stop her fulfilling her dreams of motherhood. In 2005 the star gave birth to a daughter, Bluebell, after a six-week fling with British-born Hollywood scriptwriter Sacha Gervasi, 48.

A decade ago she admitted: ‘I think we all know that relationships haven’t been one of my strong points.’

Last night Mr Kaszubowski and a spokesman for Geri both declined to comment.

Stop looking for a millionaire man and just look for a man may be a good start. Shes enough money for the two of them to live a lovely life,I think its greed that keeps her single either protecting her money or wanting him to be loaded,the celebrity life is so superficial I cant see how its worth it,whos a friend and whos after something from you. Maybe she should try aiming for a nice life instead of a celebrity one where money and possessions are everything.

hahahahahaha..oops, sorry. Well, well, well. Geri obviously didn't have her first "meaningful" orgasm with him then did she? LOL. She's a truly awful individual, thankfully it hasn't rubbed off too much on her daughter who has probably seen a range of Uncles arriving and departing timiously from their lives.
