SPLITSVILLE: Tyra Banks & John Utendahl Are DONE?!

Dec 12 | by Natasha

So much for that rumored engagement. Tyra Banks has reportedly split from her man of more than three years, banker John Utendahl. Deets inside...

This break up must have done a number on the supermodel because Tyra has reportedly picked up and gone to Bali on an "Eat, Pray, Love" style "find myself" journey.

The NY Post reports:

A source tells us the “America’s Next Top Model” diva and Brooklyn businessman Utendahl have gone their separate ways, and Banks is in the Far East “on a spiritual trip,” adding, “Tyra has gone away with a female friend and has been island-hopping, visiting Bali and taking a spiritual retreat.”

Hmmm. Sounds like the Harvard business school student, supermodel and TV mogul isn't the woman who has it all like she appears. But she did say during Larry King's new "Dinner With The Kings" show that she isn't the strong tough-girl people think she is. She's actually passive-aggressive and taking classes on being confrontational. Check out a clip from the show below which aired December 4th on CNN:

And to throw salt in the wound, John was supposedly spotted out at Catch restaurant in the meatpacking district with a "leggy supermodel" over the weekend. Well that was quick...

If she's taking it hard I hope she's feeling better soon!! Love Tyra and wish nothing but the best for her. Three years is a loooong time in "relationship years"...I would imagine it was hard to let go

Utendahl, does not have a net

Utendahl, does not have a net worth of 500 mil and never has. His companies have gone out of business in the last 2 years, one last year and one this year. He is now on the chairman's board of another bank.

I see dumb people!!!! You OBVIOUSLY are clueless as it relates to the world of Investments. Not only is Utendahl's net worth 500 million now, but at the height of his company, he was worth 2.5 billion! Pick up a book for a change so that you can be more versed in your comments. You're sounding really dumb right now. That's like saying that Bob Johnson is no longer a billionaire because he now a chairman of another company. Just stupid.

Agreed! I wish bw & all women

Agreed! I wish bw & all women really could just be content on 'Being'..........start loving life/develop hobbies & not feel the need to be validated by a human with a penis. I hate the needy type....women always seems to be looked down upon if they are'nt in a realtionship etc....or threatened that they/we will be sad & lonely if they dont hurry up & get married & have kids by a certain age etc....... Lol@ that bs that they are talking, Im only 23/beautiful/smart/degreed...and am totally smitten with MYSELF!! I dont have kids/nor married or in a relationship, and its fantastic!! I see 1 guy/who's a 'friend with benefits' type, that I protect myself with & been knowing for a while......& Im guuwd with that! I will never grow to be 'sad & lonely' because I have a very large /supportive family, 3 brothers & 2 sisters all with kidz/ my nephews are like my second children, thus I am in no need-rush to reproduce!! LIVE & LOVE LIFE LADIES <3 <3

I completely agree with

I completely agree with everything you said...except the "friends with benefits" part. Personally I think you shouldn't have sex with anyone you're not in a committed relationship with, marriage is preferable, but I think at least an exclusive relationship is necessary but hey that's just me. I know everyone doesn't think like that. I'm only 24 so I'm not just some old lady on here spitting out ideas LOL. All you're other points were extremely valid and I agree 100% :-)

Wow, some of you are really speaking on things as if you have personal knowledge of how she's lived. If she's lived that way then that's on her but really, what scoop do you have to verify that? It's amazing how people do that with celebs and much of it turns out to false rumors or hearsay. People spread rumors about everyday regular folk and people with any type of notoriety deal with that on a much larger scale.

The divorce rate in this

The divorce rate in this country is 70% so that means that there are a lot of woman, who aren't making upwards to $40 million a year, dealing with the same relationship drama that Tyra is. People lose sight of that when it's a woman with money. A lot of times they have to deal with an extra element, dealing with guys who don't make nearly as much as they do. Most guys can't deal with that. Not saying that that was a factor, because no one knows their business like they do, but that element is always there.

Where in the hell are you

Where in the hell are you chicks getting this shit from??? Her dude was far from broke. He was a Wall Street banker for God's sake. His bonuses alone are in the multi-millions. Do you really think that he is stressin' over Tyra's pocket change???? Just because she is on tv does not mean that she makes more money. Trust me on that.

So you think that everyone

So you think that everyone that works on Wallstreet automatically makes millions a year? Hmm. Yeah, it doesn't really work that way for everyone. I've never heard about this guy making upwards too $40mil a year like she does. Even if he does have money, Tyra has money, prestige, celebrity and power in show business. Not every guy can handle that.

Well just for your info

Well just for your info Miss-Know-Nothing, I happen to have done contract with the firm that he works for, and trust me, 40-million is nothing to this dude. The difference here: When Tyra makes 40 million, she has to pay 400 other people. She doesn't maintain her brand by herself. A Wall St. banker gets 100% of his scrilla. Get your knowledge up and stop star gazing.

Even if you aren't a Tyra fan

Even if you aren't a Tyra fan you have to recognise she has achieved a phenomenal amount and is continuing to strive to improve herself so it really saddens me reading some of the spiteful comments on here. Are black women so insecure, so mentally brainwashed so low achieving they need to hate on a sista succeeding in her life all because she isn't married and doesn't have kids? Are we really saying that saying everything she's accomplished means sh*t because she isn't Mrs xyz or some baby's momma? People are always coming on here and slating various baby momma's for living off their baby daddy's or berating women claiming huge divorce settlements. Yet here is Tyra, making her own money with a world wide syndicated show SHE created, no illegitimate kids, no multiple ex husbands, no sex scandals and the majority of posts are pouring scorn on her! This is why they say black women are toxic 'cause some of you b*tches are truly filled with bile and hate.
