Ryan Seacrest And Julianne Hough: Who Is At Fault For The Break-Up?

Earlier this week, Ryan Seacrest and his girlfriend of two years, Julianne Hough, decided to go their separate ways. Neither of the former lovebirds has spoken publically about what soured the relationship, but both common sense and sources close to the situation are saying the same thing. He worked way too much to be a present boyfriend.

Unfortunately for Seacrest, there are a limited number of hours in every day, and between American Idol, his popular radio show, E! News, the Olympics, producing Keeping Up With The Kardashians and a slew of other projects including becoming his generation’s Dick Clark, almost all of his time was devoted to crushing his career life. Sure, he supposedly visited her a few times on the set of Safe Haven and bought her crazy expensive jewelry (that later got stolen), but in general, he worked a high percentage of his days.

Not surprisingly, blame for the relationship’s failure has mostly come down on Seacrest’s shoulders. He was clearly the one that was far harder to hang out with; so, even if she did the dirty work, the dumping deed almost seems understandable. That being said, it’s hard to fault a really talented and driven guy for turning down lucrative opportunities, especially when there aren’t any children or even a marriage in play. Maybe Hough would have been better off sticking by Ryan for another half decade or so until he started to slow down. In fact, a case could be made that she should have known exactly what she was getting into when she decided to start dating the hardest working man in show business.
