Actress Charlize Theron has ended her nine-year relationship with Irish actor Stuart Townsend, according to a British report.

The South African beauty has been dating the Shooting Fish star since they met on the set of 2002 movie Trapped.

But U.K. newspaper the Mail on Sunday claims the couple has now parted ways, with Townsend allegedly moving out of their shared home in the Hollywood Hills.

The report follows a stream of rumors about their relationship after Theron was recently spotted out in public without the beloved antique ring she wears to show her commitment to Townsend.

A source tells the publication, “They had become more like brother and sister than lovers. It was she who ended it. Charlize has remained in their main home in the Hollywood Hills while Stuart has moved all his stuff into their Malibu beach home that they own together. They are sorting out their financial affairs at the moment, as they have been together for so long that many of their financial affairs are intertwined.

“She truly loved Stuart but the relationship ran its course. He is heartbroken but she is insisting it is all over.”

In a recent interview Townsend admitted he considered the Oscar-winner his wife, even though they never legally married. He said, “We consider ourselves husband and wife. We love each other and want to spend the rest of our lives together.”

Magnolia Home Entertainment announced that “The Burning Plain,” a film written and directed by Guillermo Arriaga and starring Academy Award-winners Charlize Theron and Kim Basinger, will hit the stores on Jan. 12.

“The performances by Theron and Basinger are strong enough to get noticed at Oscar time,” a critic for Time wrote. But they were overlooked by the Golden Globes.

Charlize Theron (“Hancock,” “Monster”) stars as Sylvia, a woman on the edge who takes an emotional journey back to the defining moment of her life. “The Burning Plain” explores the explosive power of forbidden love. Sylvia´s cool, professional demeanor masks her sexually charged storm within. When a stranger from Mexico confronts her mysterious past, Sylvia is launched into a journey through time that inextricably connects her to a variety of disparate characters, all of whom are grappling with their own romantic destinies.

Marking the directorial debut of Oscar-nominated screenwriter Guillermo Arriaga (“Babel,” “21 Grams”), “The Burning Plain” also features Basinger (“8 Mile,” “L.A. Confidential”), Emmy nominee John Corbett (“Sex and The City,” “My Big Fat Greek Wedding”) and Joaquim De Almeida (“Che: Part Two,” “24″).

“The Burning Plain” is rated R.

CHARLIZE Theron says she and her boyfriend Stuart Townsend are still “completely crazy” about each other.

The South African actress and the Irish actor have been dating for over nine years and have managed to keep their relationship intact — despite the pressures the of showbiz.

“He’s a remarkable, warm and caring man,” said Charlize. “We’ve been able to make a great life for ourselves — and that can be pretty hard in this business.

“What holds us together is great love, great respect and great friendship.

“After nine years, we’re still completely crazy about each other.”

It was recently reported that Theron is planning to get Townsend tickets for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

“Stuart is a big soccer fan and is already planning on seeing as much of the World Cup as he can,” a source said.

“Charlize really knows nothing about the game but she’s calling in a few favors for tickets for Stuart and a few other friends and family for next summer.”

The South African star moved to California at the age of 19 to embark on a career in the movies.

But Theron, who won an Oscar for her performance in 2003 drama Monster, admits it was tough trying to make it in showbusiness, and she saw the darker side of Hollywood first hand.

She tells Britain’s OK! magazine, ‘I thought it was a little odd that the audition was on a Saturday night at his house in Los Angeles, but I thought maybe that was normal. He was in his Hugh Hefner pyjamas – I go inside and he’s offering me a drink, and I’m thinking, my God this acting stuff is very relaxed. But it soon becomes very clear what the situation was. I was like, ‘Not going to happen! Got the wrong girl, buddy!”
