Hough And Wicks Split - Report

Country music couple JULIANNE HOUGH and CHUCK WICKS have called off their relationship, according to reports.

Hough, who is set to star opposite Chace Crawford in the upcoming movie remake of Footloose, began dating the singer in August 2008 while touring with Brad Paisley.

They took their romance to the small screen earlier this year (09) as Wicks teamed up with professional dancer Hough to compete on U.S. TV talent contest Dancing With The Stars - but they’ve now decided to part ways.

A source tells People.com, “This was mutual. They needed some time apart.”
