Audrina Patridge Reflects On How ‘The Hills’ Affected Romance With Chris Pine, Claims Past Flirtations With Leonardo DiCaprio And Chace Crawford

In Audrina Patridge’s new memoir, the former reality star looks back on how “The Hills” came between her and former beau Chris Pine. “He didn’t like going out and being followed by the paparazzi — he was an introvert, and very focused on his acting,” Patridge, 37, recalls in Choices: To the Hills and Back Again. “I loved to go out, and of course I was usually filming ‘The Hills’, so our lifestyles were complete opposites in that sense.” The former couple met in April 2009 at Las Vegas’s ShoWest Awards, where Patridge was honoured for her role in “Sorority Row”.

Throughout their relationship, they made a collective effort to avoid tabloid attention since it made Pine, 41, uncomfortable.

However, she writes that one time a fan snapped a photo of them in a restaurant, which seemed to “annoy” Pine, and, another time, she was photographed leaving the actor’s home.

Ultimately, the TV personality’s commitment to the popular MTV unscripted series proved too much for their relationship. “With my filming schedule, and the fact that there was no way Chris would want to be on [‘The Hills’], I just knew that after a couple months that I couldn’t date him,” she explains. “My life was the TV show, and there weren’t enough hours in the day to do my job and find time to see him privately.” She continues, “He was a big up-and-coming actor with demands on his time, and it didn’t seem like our lives were lining up, even though we really liked each other.” According to Patridge, the two amicably parted ways.
