    Zac Efron’s split from Vanessa Valladares wasn’t dramatic

    The ‘Baywatch’ hunk was rumoured to have split from Vanessa this week after 10 months together, and news of his break-up has now been confirmed by his friend and radio personality Kyle Sandilands, who said there was “no drama” involved


    Speaking on his ‘Kyle and Jackie O Show’, Kyle said: “I can also confirm after speaking with him yesterday. It’s only recent, but not like yesterday recent. But they’ve gone their separate ways. [There was] no drama, but it’s done.”

    Zac, 33, was said to have split from Vanessa this week, although no reason was given for the couple’s break-up.

    However, a source later suggested Zac dumped Vanessa amid the news she is set to appear on a reality series named ‘Byron Baes’.

    An insider said: "He's a very good person who wanted a genuine, normal, down-to-earth partner. Zac sent her home from the set [of ‘Down to Earth with Zac Efron’] last week. There still may have been a chance.

    "I'm sure the final nail in the coffin was him seeing the story of her being possibly on Byron Baes and the claims that he was helping her get on it."

    The ‘Greatest Showman’ actor started dating 25-year-old waitress in June last year after they met at the Byron Bay General Store in New South Wales, Australia, where Vanessa was working.

    Meanwhile, Zac was recently said to be property hunting in Australia after putting his Los Angeles home up for sale in December, as he reportedly has “no plans” to move back to the US.

    A source said: "As of now, he has no plans to live permanently in LA again. He loves Australia and considers it his home."

    Whilst another added: “He keeps looking at properties.”
