Flowers blooming, spring is a time for fresh starts & new beginnings. Love is in the air. With that in mind, Spring is also a time for Spring Cleaning your home and sometimes in your life. People are re-energized and feel the need for new beginnings in different areas of their life, just as nature does. Self reflection and setting new directions can, in some cases, lead to breakups. It’s now that time of year again. Summer’s approaching and it’s seems like everywhere I look (even in my close circle of friends), as well as on all the latest headlines – couples are breaking up. “So and So is no long listed as in a relationship,” as Facebook would say.

Here’s a list of the celebs that officially broke up this past week:

• Paris Hilton & Doug Reinhardt
• Melissa Ethridge & Tammy Lynn Michaels
• Larry King & Shawn Southwick
• Mel Gibson & Oksana Grigorieva

…and this is only in the past week.
