The Countess told RadarOnline.com that the pair split because of his desire to have a family and a source previously said that he dumped her because he was afraid she had cheated on him .
Despite their split, Azoulay was full of compliments for the Countess.
"I wish I could say something juicy but it was just a boring breakup. We are still friends and she has a great sense of humor."
