Justin Timberlake & Jessica Biel Together, For Now

Split in the works...

Yesterday a rumor exploded that Justin Timberlake dumped Jessica Biel last month, and his "professional" relationship with Rihanna was a factor. While the reports weren't spot-on, we've learned they're not exactly false.

Rumor has it in fact the two are on the verge of a split. Timberlake's been teaming with Rihanna on her new album and sources say they enjoy a strictly-business relationship, but Timberlake's behavior outside the studio these days suggests he's up for a little "me-time" after his two-year tie-down with Jessica Biel. People.com reported that Biel attended her Valentine's Day wrap party solo on September 22, and three days later Timberlake was out in full-swing bachelor-style with his best friend Trace Ayala. Yesterday's reports suggested Biel was asking Timberlake to make the relationship a priority but he and his buds are getting fed up with her clinging.

So what about the buzz that they may climb Mt. Kilimanjaro together? It's still a possibility, but it's three months away. Insiders say that it's highly probable that Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel will be off by then...and by the miserable looks on their faces on a trip to Northern California Monday night, we might have to agree.
