Controversial couple Sienna Miller and Balthazar Getty have called it quits.The actress spilled the Splitsville news to Usmagazine.com at a London charity event:

"I'm single at the moment, and I'm completely happy with that. It's nice not to have a relationship that the press constantly want to scrutinize and discuss. I'm cool with being on my own."

But she was definitely hot with Getty, perhaps generating too much heat when a topless Miller was photographed smooching her guy on a boat in Italy while the actor was still married. Getty, a star of TV's Brothers and Sisters, separated from his wife a couple of months later. And the publicity glare hasn't done much for Miller, either, with her London home vandalized in August with the word "slut."

This is clearly a case where that old truism about how "there's no such thing as bad publicity" is definitely more of a false-ism.
