Ashley Olsen News: Actress Splits From Richard Sachs After Dating For Five Months
Ashley Olsen has broken off her five-month-old relationship with financier Richard Sachs. However, the two have remained close friends.
The pair had called it quits earlier this year, as Ashley Olsen wanted to focus more on fashion. Her entire fashion empire includes Elizabeth and James, which she started with her twin sister Mary-Kate Olsen. A source told Us Weekly that the split was amicable, and that they were even seen having lunch together at Chinatown in New York City a few weeks ago.
"She wants to focus on her clothing line right now," the insider told the online publication. They're still friends and hang out." Back in January, the couple looked blissfully happy while they went on vacation in St. Barts. They were joined by Ashley Olsen's twin sister Mary-Kate and her husband Oliver Sarkozy. The twins even took their respective partners as their plus-ones to a friend's wedding in New Zealand back in February.
It was reported that the pair first started dating in October. A month later, Ashley Olsen and Sachs looked loved up during a game between the New York Knicks and the Brooklyn Nets in New York. They were also joined by her twin sister and Sarkozy in watching the game. They were also spotted several times in Manhattan holding hands and giving each other stolen kisses, according to the Daily Mail.
Long before she dated Sachs, Ashley Olsen had previously dated a number of men in her lifetime. She dated Bennett Miller, David Schulte, and Scott Sartiano. She briefly went out with Lance Armstrong back in 2007. She dated Greg Chait for two years while she embarked on a relationship with Matt Kaplan for three years beginning in 2001. It was also reported that she had hooked up with the likes of Jared Leto in 2005, and Johnny Depp in 2012.
