Alex Turner 'follows Chung to US'

Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner is moving to America with girlfriend Alexa Chung, say tabloid reports.

According to The Sun, the indie singer can't face the prospect of a long-distance relationship with the T4 presenter and is willing to move countries for her.

"Alex can't bear to be parted from Alexa," said a source. "The thought of being separated for months on end, with her trying to get TV work in America while he is in the UK, was too much for him.

"He's madly in love. It has caused a stink with the other boys [in the group] because it's going to make co-ordinating band business a hell of a lot more difficult, but they're happy for him."

Chung enjoyed a "farewell to Blighty" party at Bungalow 8 last week, which apparently featured guests including Pixie Geldof singing 'New York, New York'.

Arctic Monkeys are currently finishing their third studio album, which will be released later this year.
