Love on Hold for Orlando Bloom and Kate Bosworth  4/10/05

British screen star Orlando Bloom has put his love affair with actress Kate Bosworth on hold for a year - so they can give each other "time to grow". The pair recently split - but have been spotted together since, prompting rumors of a reconciliation. Bloom admits they're still close, but found their busy lives made a relationship impossible. He says, "There's been a lot of heat because we decided to take some time out. But we're really close. It's unfortunate everything has to be for public display. "It's hard when you travel. It makes relationships a challenge. I've always kept everything close to the vest, and that's how I intend to play everything.

"We've both got a big year ahead, and we thought, just for this year, we'd give each other some time to grow."
