Paris Hilton and her boyfriend of nine months, Benji Madden, have broken up.

Hilton publicist Alanna McCarthy said on Wednesday that the two "remain very good friends." She wouldn't say more.

Hilton and Madden have been photographed wearing rings with each other's initials. The 27-year-old socialite also joined her boyfriend when he toured with his rock band, Good Charlotte.

Madden was engaged to Australian actress Sophie Monk, before he hooked up with Hilton.

Madden, 29, plays guitar, and his identical twin brother, Joel, is the lead singer. Joel Madden has a daughter with Nicole Richie, Hilton's long-time friend and reality-TV co-star.
