A source said: “Kate and Nikolai have been on and off for months, and eventually Kate felt the time was right to move on and cut ties.
“She felt they were going on different journeys in life. And, at 50, Kate feels fabulous and like she wants to get back out there and have some fun in time for Christmas.
“Despite being 13 years her junior, Nikolai wants to enjoy a quieter life. He remains on his sober path and they just have increasingly different hobbies and wants.
