Agent Jason Trawick reportedly called time on their relationship after it became clear Britney - who has sons Sean Preston, three, and Jayden James, two, with ex-husband Kevin Federline - was desperate for him to commit to her.

A source told National Enquirer magazine: "It was just too fast, too soon for Jason. He didn't like the pressure Britney and her family were putting on him to put a ring on her finger. He told Britney repeatedly that he would never marry, but she refused to believe him.

She thought she could change his mind by having a baby with him. "Jason told Britney he needs time to chill away from her. She's heartbroken."

Although they have now separated, Britney - who was first romantically linked to Jason in March - was seen wearing a diamond ring on her engagement finger while shopping in Beverly Hills last week. It was recently claimed Britney was so determined to marry Jason she was planning to convert to Judaism for him.

The 27-year-old star has been photographed wearing a Star of David necklace during her world tour and even recruited a rabbi to help her study the faith. An insider said: "Britney wants to try the religion Jason was brought up with." It's not the first time Britney has changed faith.

She dabbled in Kabbalah - which is a mystical off-shoot of Judaism - in 2005 after devout follower Madonna spoke to her about it.
