VANDERPUMP Rules stars James Kennedy and Ally Lewber are ‘all but broken up’ despite him still ‘begging’ her to take him back, a source exclusively told The U.S. Sun.
The reality TV couple began taking time apart last month after James, 32, was arrested for domestic violence following an incident with an unnamed woman at his Burbank, CA home.
After the arrest, Ally, 28, moved out of the Los Angeles property the couple shared with their cats and dog, Hippie.
In the weeks since, the pair have kept a low profile but they were spotted this past weekend moving more of Ally’s belongings out of the house - leading fans to believe they have called it quits for good.
A source told The U.S. Sun that the couple are “all but broken up.”
The insider added: “They still talk and check in with each other but Ally is living her own life.
“She's focusing on her own peace and healing and her astrology career and James is not her priority right now.
“He is desperately pleading with her to take him back and she hasn't fully pulled the trigger yet but it's headed in that direction of her walking away.
“The time apart has made her realize he's not healthy for her and it's better for both of them if they broke-up for good.
“I think Ally will make that decision any day now. For now, James is still holding out false hope."
The source said that photographs from last week of her unloading boxes from the house was “nothing more” than what it seemed and Ally simply had to pick up more of her belongings.
“Ally needed to get some more things from the house so she went back but her and James weren't on the best of terms that day so it was really tense.
“She basically just got her things and left,” they claimed.
As The U.S. Sun previously reported, the reality star’s loved ones are seemingly pushing for the couple to break up following the alleged domestic violence incident that took place in December.
Following Kathy Hilton’s Christmas party in Beverly Hills, James was booked in the early hours of the morning over an altercation at his home.
Officers from the Burbank Police Department were called to the scene to deal with a reported argument between James and an unnamed woman.
An eyewitness claimed the pair were arguing and he allegedly grabbed the woman and threw her to the ground - but cops didn't see any visible injuries on her, according to TMZ.
The DJ was arrested after midnight and he was released three hours later after posting a $20,000 bail.
Following the incident, a source claimed: “Ally’s really leaning on her friends and family right now and everyone is showing up for her, she is very loved and everyone just wants her to know how valued and strong she is.
“It seems she's forgotten some of that strength and independence along the way but she is finding it again.
“She is fine but mentally she is processing a lot. Her family had to step in so Ally can have some space and time to process and that's exactly what they did."
The source added that: "Of course her family isn't happy with any of this. There's aspects of James they completely love, he can have the best heart.
“But his dark side is something her family doesn't want her to tolerate and now that it's come to a head like this, they're trying to open Ally's eyes.
“Ultimately no, they don't want James and Ally together. They want the best for James but Ally is their little girl and she doesn't deserve what he's put her through.
“It's a parent's worst nightmare. Her mom just wants her little girl to be safe and happy.”
James has continued playing DJ gigs around the country since the arrest and Ally continues offering her astrology services with private sessions.
