Adam Lambert Splits from Finnish Host Boyfriend Sauli Koskinen Due To 'Hectic Schedules'
Adam Lambert and his Finnish host boyfriend Sauli Koskinen have broken up due to hectic schedules.
The 31-year-old singer, who was the runner-up on the eighth season of American Idol, had been dating Koskinen, a Finnish entertainment reporter for almost three years, according to Mail Online.
"It's been kind of on its way out in the last couple of months," the Grammy nominee told South Florida Gay News on Friday. "Sauli and I remain really good friends, and I know it's a cliché thing to say. But it's totally true."
The two made headlines in 2011 after they were arrested in Helsinki after a physical altercation.
Like Adam, Sauli first gained fame by appearing on a reality competition - as the winner of the Finnish Big Brother in 2007.
"I've been getting really busy and traveling a lot and and he's been getting really busy because he has a show he's filming for Finnish television. So we just decided to part ways," said Lambert, based on the Mail Online report.
The singer even added that he'd just given Koskinen a coffee and bagel that same morning, and said, "He's a great person and we've had an amazing couple of years together. Things have just run their course."
Meanwhile, Sauli wrote on his blog, "Fame is not easy. Celebrities are only human. Love is not easy either, but it is forever!"
