Unlucky-in-love Petra Nemcova has broken up with her fiancé, investment banker Alejandro Grimaldi, sources say.

The couple became engaged in St-Tropez in June 2017, and had been living together in Grimaldi’s residences around the world and working on various joint business and charitable projects.

“It’s a civil breakup,” a Grimaldi associate told me. “They are staying friends.”

This is the third time the never-married Czech model has been engaged.

In 2004, her then-fiancé, photographer Simon Atlee, was killed in Thailand when a tsunami hit. Nemcova survived by hanging onto a palm tree for eight hours.

In 2012, she was briefly engaged to English actor Jamie Belman.

Grimaldi, a specialist in Latin America who worked for Citigroup in Mexico and Venezuela, co-founded Global Access Partner.
