Tennis star Andy Murray’s obsession with his Playstation played a key role in his split with his girlfriend Kim Sears, claim friends of the couple.

An obsession with video games has been blamed for Andy Murray’s love split

Murray and 21-year-old Kim are reported to have separated after the student became bored at the world No.4’s habit of playing video games for up to seven hours a day.

‘He’d spend all his time glued to them,’ a source told The Sun newspaper.

The Scot reportedly spent hours on his PlayStation 3 playing Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and computer tennis.


‘She just got fed up with it. She wanted more out of the relationship,’ added the source.



‘There are a number of reasons for the break-up. But computer games did factor.’

Kim has reportedly moved out of the star’s £5million Surrey mansion and returned to her parents’ home in Sussex.

‘She does not want to speak about it,’ mum Leonore told the newspaper.

In the past, Murray’s former coach Brad Gilbert claimed the 22-year-old would play video games ‘seven hours a day’.
