Jennifer Lopez is single again after she and her boyfriend of two-and-a-half years split. According to TMZ, the 44-year-old singer and Casper Smart ended their relationship almost two months ago but kept the break up hush hush.

A source told TMZ that Smart, 27, and Lopez "grew apart" but the split was amicable. Smart recently made headlines for allegedly flirting with a transgendered model on Instagram but TMZ's source said that had nothing to do with the two ending their relationship.

"Casper has been a single guy and can text or see whoever he wants, but the idea that he was knowingly texting a transsexual is laughable," the source said. "He's not that guy."

Reportedly Smart is in the middle of moving his belongings out of the singer's house while she's busy promoting her tenth studio album.

"It wasn't an easy decision, but they decided to stay friends," another source told US Weekly. "Their relationship couldn't work with the distance. He started trying to establish his own life and career, and she is so focused on hers, and they just couldn't be all about each other anymore."

According to reports, Smart wants to pursue a career in acting. He used to be a backup dancer and choreographer.

Nik Richie's site TheDirty.com, was first to report on Smart's alleged transsexual scandal. The site claims that a tipster sent them the following claims as well as screen grabs of Smart's messages with a model named Sofie Vissa.

"Nik, sooo my homegirl has been talking and linking up with Casper Smart for a week now... they met online and I guess they both follow each other... she texted me saying they exchanged pictures XXX's... and what not... I'm liked shocked... didn't know he was down for Us beautiful Transsexual WOMEN."

"I myself didn't believe it... I'm like Casper Smart? JLo's MAN!!! Guess he likes beautiful women and the best of both worlds... crazy what a simple hello and simple talking and flirting can end up to.... My girl said she seen him a few times and he picked her up in his big truck... I didn't believe it so I asked for screen-shot and here they are. I guess my friend Sofie is f**king Casper Smart. I'm asking for more screenshots she has them ALL."
