Representatives for MGM and Mars did not respond to News Nations‘ requests for comment.
This was not the first time Bruno faced struggles this year, with the star supposedly suffering relationship issues.
Bruno has been leading an increasingly separate life from his partner, Jessica Caban, who he has been with since 2011.
The couple spent Christmas and New Year’s Eve apart, while his busy touring schedule has also kept them away from each other.
TROUBLE IN PARADISE?
Even more pressure is believed to have been put on their relationship by his reluctance to get serious and tie the knot.
“Bruno and Jessica barely spend time together anymore — it is really sad,” said a friend of the couple.
“They are living separate lives so it doesn’t bode well for their relationship. It feels like things are fizzling out between them.
“They have so much history together but we aren’t sure whether they will be able to save things this time.
WHERE’S THE RING?
“It would be hard for them to say goodbye but perhaps it’s for the best at this point.”
A rep for the star did not comment.
