Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo have split!

A source close to the couple tells ys: “It was an amicable break-up. They walk away from it still friends.”

Adds another source, “They still care about each other very much. This is what’s best for both of them.”

The couple hooked up in 2006 — the year after Lachey split from wife Jessica Simpson.

In 2007, Minnillo told Us she wanted to have kids with Lachey: “I always say I want three boys and a girl, but at the end of the day, I just want healthy kids.”

Vanessa Minnillo’s rep may say the former “Entertainment Tonight” presenter is still with boyfriend Nick Lachey — but she’s sure acting single. Minnillo showed up solo recently at Prive at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas to celebrate her friend Malin Ackerman’s 31st birthday and proceeded to have a few Grey Goose vodka drinks. Then she plunked herself on an unidentified man’s lap for “a while,” before challenging a Michael Jackson impersonator to a “Thriller” dance-off atop a dancing platform. Our spy says, “She matched him move for move, complete with a lick of her palm, grab of her crotch and other non-PG-rated moves. She even completed her dance by kicking off her shoes and climbing off the platform in drunken prom girl style.” Minnillo’s rep didn’t return e-mails.

Tongues were wagging over Vanessa Minnillo’s recent display of affection with a guy who was not longtime beau Nick Lachey. The celebutrash was spotted at the SLS hotel in LA, “hanging out in a private cabana all night” with “90210″ actor Matt Lanter. Our spy said, “Vanessa definitely wasn’t with Nick. She sat on Matt’s lap and really close to him for two hours at the party. He looks like a younger version of Nick.” A rep for Minnillo said her client knows her “Disaster Movie” co-star because “they made a film together.”

It looks as though genetically-blessed duo Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo are going stronger than ever, but is Miss Minnillo ready to take the next step? The Tinseltown twosome snuck into Christina Aguilera’s Target Terrace AMAs party at and stood by each other’s side throughout the evening. According to an inside source, Ness did some hinting while hitting the dancefloor during Beyonce’s “Single Ladies.”

“Vanessa was dancing and joking about putting a ring on her finger,” said the eyewitness. “She was pointing to her ring finger! The two were very happy and sipping champagne together.” Awww.

Other guests included rekindled romancers Jimmy Kimmel and Sarah Silverman as well as Xtina herself, Sarah McLachlan, David Archuleta, Tyrese Gibson and JC

Luckily for Vanessa Minnillo, life doesn’t always imitate art.

Case in point? In Disaster Movie, hitting theaters Friday, Minnillo’s cheerleader character just can’t get her boyfriend to say “I love you.”

“He just can’t drop the L-word,” Minnillo, 27, tells PEOPLE of her character’s commitment-challenged boyfriend. “And what a girl wants more than anything in the world is for their boyfriend to say ‘I love you.’ ”

But, says Minnillo, her real-life beau Nick Lachey, 34, doesn’t have any similar hang-ups: “The L-word is not thrown around by men as easily as it is by women – but I didn’t say it first! He’s very loving. We’re very open and vocal.”

While Minnillo and Lachey may be in sync when it comes to their love for each other, their attempt to exercise together is not so harmonious.

“We used to work out together, but we stopped,” says Minnillo, laughing. “We’re doing different things. And the guy runs forever! Like, I swear, he’s running 11 miles a day. I can’t run. That’s the one thing I can’t do, because I feel like the further I jog away from my house, the further I have to jog back!”

Sexy Nick Lachey does not regret marriage to ex. Jessica Simpson, despite their emotionally-charged very public media divorce.The Newlywed stars split in 2005 following a three-year union documented on their television reality show. But Lachey insists his highly-publicised break-up with the pop star has helped him become a better man. He says, “I think that life is unexpected in a lot of ways… You certainly can’t predict or script the way life is going to turn out. The best you can do is just roll with those punches and be a better person for it in the end.”
