Lindsay Lohan confirmed on April 6 that she and DJ Samantha Ronson had broken up. The couple had started dating about a year ago and had constantly been plagued with rumors of splits and fights.

Lindsay insisted the break-up was for the best, as she was ready to get her career back on track - and keep her personal life out of the press. Lohan seems to hold hope that the split won't be permanent.

In an interview with U.S. TV host Ellen DeGeneres she said "I really care about Samantha and we’ll see what happens," confesses the actress. "Maybe when we’re fully in the right place… and I love her."
