Katy Perry's love life is making headlines once again. The pop princess has reportedly split with relatively short-term love Robert Ackroyd.

According to Us Weekly, the "Part of Me" singer and the Florence and the Machine guitarist parted ways very amicably, due in large part to the fact that they were dating for only a few weeks.

"It wasn't that serious," a source told the magazine of Perry's relationship with Ackroyd. "It's not a nasty thing, and they are still talking, but Katy told him to do his thing, and they'll talk soon."

Another source added, "No hard feelings. She's really busy, and so is he."

News of Perry and Ackroyd's romance broke last month when the pair were spotted holding hands, kissing and generally canoodling at the Coachella music festival in California.

The 27-year-old is reportedly still recovering from her highly publicized breakup with husband Russell Brand back in December after two years of marriage. She has yet to speak publicly about the split, but during her acceptance speech of the Spotlight Award at Sunday night'sBillboard Music Awards, she hinted that her new single, "Wide Awake," might reflect emotions she dealt with regarding the divorce.

"Tonight, later, when I get on the stage, I'm going to be singing my personal, intimate song," she said, before shouting out her date. "The real rock star here is my grandmother. She's 91, and she's from Las Vegas. I can't wait to go and do shots with you after this!"
