Looking lonely yesterday afternoon after breaking up with boyfriend Jamie Kennedy, Jennifer Love Hewitt treats herself to some retail therapy in Beverly Hills, Ca.

After a year-long romance, Jennifer Love Hewitt and Jamie Kennedy have broken up, a rep has confirmed exclusively to PEOPLE.

No further details were available.

Though some in the blogosphere called them an unlikely couple, Kennedy and Hewitt regularly gushed over each other.

When Kennedy first confirmed the romance in March 2009, he told Ryan Seacrest during a radio interview, “I’m in love!” Describing his costar on Ghost Whisperer, Kennedy said: “It’s like, ‘Wow, you are hot. You can sing, you can dance, you’re like, so smart and, wow, you can cook pasta fagioli, too.’ ”

Hewitt called her beau “hilarious,” but praised him as more than just a funnyman. “There are people in your life who are just supportive and who just look at you and they see who you are,” Hewitt told Ellen DeGeneres last year. “And [Jamie] really saw who I was as a person more than anybody had ever done in my whole life. I think that’s for me when I sort of went, ‘Oh, wow.’ ”

Jennifer Love Hewitt is adamant she hasn’t given her boyfriend Jamie Kennedy a deadline for a proposal – insisting the couple won’t “rush” into marriage any time soon.

The actress sparked rumors of an imminent wedding last year after she mentioned in an interview that she wanted to be engaged by summer 2010.

She said, “By this time next year, if we’re not planning something, then there’s a situation.”

Her former Ghost Whisperer co-star was subsequently rumored to have popped the question to Hewitt onstage during a comedy show, but the couple denied the reports.

Hewitt insists she hasn’t given her partner an ultimatum – and doesn’t expect a proposal until they are both ready to wed.

She says, “The engagement thing was blown out of all proportion. When I made that comment about there being a ‘situation’, I wasn’t really giving him a time clock. If it’s going to happen it will happen, but right now we are not rushing anything. We are both just really happy.”
