Photo Credit: Splash NewsNovember 19, 2008, (Sawf News) - Paris Hilton dumped boyfriend of more than nine months on November 17, telling him he was "too controlling" and that she needed her freedom back.
"Paris was fed up with Benji always telling her what to do and bossing her around," an insider told Star magazine. "She couldn't take his overbearing ways anymore. It was stressing her out. He can be very aggressive and he was just too much trouble."
"She is saddened by the breakup but they're just too different and they wanted different things in life," a source close to Hilton told People magazine. "He was loyal and sweet but it was time to take a break."
The couple's relationship has been plagued by infidelity rumors.
Benji has reportedly been out with a woman who looked like his ex-fiancée, Sophie Monk, and on another occasion with a groupie. He denies cheating on Paris.
Paris was photographed getting cozy with ex Stavros Niarchos at nightspot Mokai in Miami on November 15, an interaction that a Hilton friend describes as close and friendly, not romantic.
"In no way are they romantic, nor do they want to get back together," the source says.
Shortly after the break up on Tuesday, Paris partied with her sister, Nicky, and Nicky's boyfriend David Katzenberg at Villa nightclub.
The next day the couple partied separately - Hilton danced on top of a couch at Apple Lounge, while Madden unwound at Coco de Ville with Nicole Richie, who dates Benji's twin Joel Madden.
