Are ABC's Bachelor Bob Guiney and Estella Gardinier, the woman that he selected at the conclusion of the series, already broken up? According to at least one New York City newspaper gossip column, yes.

Apparently following in the flamed-out footsteps of other reality couples such as original BachelorAlex Michael & Amanda Marsh, follow-up BachelorAaron Buerge & Helene Eksterowicz, and Joe Millionaire'sEvan Marriott & Zora Andrich, Friday's edition of the New York Post's "Page Six" column reported that Bob and Estella ended their relationship "the second the cameras stopped rolling."
According to the report, Bob has recently been "telling women he is single" and, during a Saturday night out on the town in New York City on November 22 -- only three days after the finale for the fourth edition of The Bachelor aired -- Estella confirmed the couple's "no more" status to club-goers. Estella, a Californian who presumably was still in New York for post-finale media appearances, reportedly was accompanied to the LG nightclub by Kutty Kass, the brother of Estonian model and former Gap girl Carmen Kass. While at the club, Estella "told everyone she and Bob were not together" according to those in attendance.
In the meantime, we'll await word if, unlike the last Bachelor couple that broke-up, Bob was smart enough to not unceremoniously dump Estella at a neighborhood Starbucks.
