Elijah Wood splits from girlfriend

Elijah Wood has split with his girlfriend Pamela Racine. The Lord of the Rings actor – who has been dating the Gogol Bordello drummer for more than five years – broke off the relationship because he couldn’t commit to her long-term. A friend said: “Elijah just didn’t want to settle down. The last thing he wanted to do was hurt Pamela, but she’s pretty cut up about the break-up.” The pair met on the set of 2005 adventure movie Everything Is Illuminated, which starred Elijah and Pamela’s band. Elijah has been notoriously private about his relationship, but Liev Schreiber – who directed the 29-year-old star in Everything Is Illuminated – previously claimed he has a “sincere goodness as a human being” and a “generosity of spirit.” Despite keeping their partnership quiet, the pair were often seen together at events – she often accompanied him to movie premieres and they were both a regular of fashion week shows. However, at the recent premieres for his new movie The Romantics in New York and San Francisco, Pamela was not in attendance.
