KELLY Brook has split from fiancé Billy Zane.
The sexy Strictly Come Dancing star is single again after deciding last month to end her four-year relationship with the movie smoothie.
Kelly, 28, has been thinking over her life since dad Ken died last November – and decided she was too young to wed 42-year-old Billy.
She appeared in public without her engagement ring for the first time at the TV Baftas in London on Sunday.
Actor Billy is now moving back to Los Angeles for good after moving out of their £1million farmhouse in Kent.
A source said: “After much soul-searching, Kelly decided that Billy is not the man she wants to marry and has called off the engagement.
“The split is completely amicable and the decision was made after long conversations here and in the US. They remain good friends.”
The couple had planned to tie the knot in a romantic ceremony at their 600-year-old farmhouse last year.
But ex Big Breakfast host Kelly kept putting back the date due to work – and Ken’s death then left her shattered.
After a tough few months, the couple had a romantic holiday in St Barts in the Caribbean in January.
Billy had hoped to rescue the relationship and get spliced this year. But since they came back to Britain, Kelly started losing her desire to get married – despite his enthusiasm.
The source said: “When her dad passed away she spent a lot of time mulling over life and decided she was too young to settle down.
“Billy was keen, but she kept delaying plans for the big day. He started asking questions – and they eventually decided to go their separate ways.”
Last night a spokesman for Kelly confirmed the split.
Thrill-seekers flock to death plunge waterfall
Fancy a relaxing dip in the pool? This one has got it all: sun, water... and a 110m (360ft) death plunge.
Tourists whose excitement threshold is not met by bungee jumping or scuba diving have created a new craze – having their picture taken right on the edge of a waterfall.
The daredevil stunt is performed at the appropriately named Devil's Swimming Pool, which forms part of Victoria Falls.
Guides at the natural wonder on the Zimbabwe/Zambia border insist it is safe to pose there during the dry season because that is when the flow of the Zambezi river is at its lowest.
However, thrill-seekers have to wade across strong currents to get to the pool and are then swept towards the lip of the waterfall.
Francisc Stugren and his wife, Angela, took these snaps when they visited the falls to celebrate their first wedding anniversary.
Mr Stugren, 35, claimed the thrill of the interesting new watersport was 'better than bungee jumping'.
He said: 'Being in the Devil's Pool is a serious adrenaline rush for the first few minutes.
'The thought that you may get sucked away from the relatively calm waters of the pool and down the foamy hell into the pit makes you giddy with apprehension.'
Mr Stugren, from Seattle, US, added: 'If you jump in it adds up to the excitement, but you can also get in gently. It's great fun.
'Some people enjoy it quietly, swimming, looking and thinking, while others just keep screaming.'
It's certainly something not to be attempted during the wet season, when 500million litres of water cascade over the pool every minute.
