Clarke, Bingle to end engagement?

Michael Clarke is believed to have ended his relationship with Lara Bingle following her recent nude photo scandal.

The Australian cricketer, who left his tour of New Zealand last week after discovering that Bingle had sold her side of the Brendan Fevola story to a magazine, is reportedly furious that she would accept money to discuss her former affair with the AFL player.

When asked if the couple would be splitting, a friend of Clarke told The Daily Telegraph: "It's certainly heading that way."

Last night, the 22-year-old model was photographed for the first time without her 4.7 carat engagement ring.

Bingle has allegedly taken legal advice over whether she can sue Fevola for leaking the photograph of her in the shower that he took without her permission during their fling three years ago.
