We’ve heard every reason why Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt supposedly called it quits last week-- but the real reason is actually a very simple one, Breaking Celebrity News has learned exclusively.
Heidi and Spencer literally ran out of money.
Spencer’s frivolous spending sent their relationship spiraling out of control. According to a very well placed source, the couple had depleted their bank account by the end of last season’s The Hills.
“They were definitely in the hole at the end of last season. Their business manager was calling the house every day. They were tripping over their funds,” the source told Breaking Celebrity News exclusively.
According to the insider, Spencer and Heidi eventually got a check for their work on the show -- but neither one expected to be fired shortly after beginning the new season.
“When they got paid, everything seemed to be ok,” the insider told Breaking Celebrity News. “They started filming the new season of The Hills and then Spencer got kicked off the show. So now he is freaking out.”
