E! News has confirmed with sources that Kim Kardashian and Miles Austin split "a little over a week ago," right before she left for Europe. "It was mutual," says a source. "It was because of their lack of time spent together and busy schedules. It just wasn't realistic that they could make it work." Kim is currently on a promotional trip overseas. She's now in Italy and due back home Sept. 23. A source says Kim's friends and family are urging her to stop dating athletes and instead focus on more conventional guys. "She needs to date a businessman," says a pal. "Athletes just aren't a good long-term investment."

After her split from football star Reggie Bush earlier this year and briefly being linked to Portuguese soccer player Cristiano Rinaldo, Kim Kardashian, 29, is going out with another football player, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Miles Austin, 26. "They met at a restaurant in L.A. a few months ago and exchanged numbers and have been talking ever since," says a source of the couple. "They've had a few dates and it's going really well." While the pair are officially dating, "he's not quite her boyfriend," the source says. "They're taking it slow. She thinks he's a really good guy. He's really sweet to her. … He thinks Kim is his dream girl."
