Dannii Minogue is said to be fighting to save her relationship with Kris Smith, after a series of arguments left them wondering if they still have a future with each other.

The Australian star recently announced her decision to leave The X Factor and insiders say she hoped this would help heal the rift between her and her model boyfriend, who have reportedly been rowing recently over their ever increasing workloads.

Seeming to hint that all was not rosey between her and her baby daddy, Dannii tweeted this week:

“Never chase love. If it isn’t given freely by another person, it’s not worth having.”

She later added: “Forgiving someone does not mean forgetting what they did. It simply means letting go of the hurt.”

Kris responded: “You don’t know what you’ve got til it’s gone.”

However, both stars later deleted the comments.

Minogue has previously described Smith as the ‘love of her life’, however insiders say they have been struggling to cope with the demands of being parents to their eleven month old baby son Ethan, while juggling their career responsibilities. Dannii has flown back to Oz without Kris this week, as he has a modelling job in Manchester, while she has to start work on Australia’s Got Talent.

A source told The News Of The World: “Kris is not happy about Dannii’s heavy workload, and wants her to spend more time with him and baby Ethan, and has put his foot down.

“Dannii is not happy about having to choose between work and family, and they have been arguing about this recently.

“For the past few months it feels like when one is in Australia the other’s in the UK.

“That’s hard for any couple with a 10-month-old baby to deal with.

“Dannii flew back to Australia with Ethan because Kris had to work in Manchester. She understands but it’s far from ideal.”

“There have been some very rocky times lately.

“She has made a decision to put the relationship first by refusing to commute between Australia and Britain for The X Factor.

“Kris loves Australia so I think they’ll try to base themselves there.

“It would be awful for them to break up now after everything they’ve been through.”
