The news that they were an item seemed to come out of nowhere, and just three months later, it was splitsville for Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong. What went wrong for the whirlwind couple? Sources say Kate wanted to put her relationship with the Tour de France champ on the fast track, and he pedaled the other way.

“Lance felt that Kate came on too strong, too fast,” an insider revealed to Star magazine. “She started talking marriage and babies almost right away.”

Apparently, Lance, who has three children from his first marriage, had no interest in starting a new family with the “Fool’s Gold” star — or anyone else for that matter. In fact, a source told In Touch Weekly, the cyclist wants to keep his options open.

“He tends to get cold feet whenever a relationship gets too serious,” the source said.

In an interview with W Magazine, the “Bride Wars” actress sounded off on her new film and her past marriage to Black Crowes rocker Chris Robinson.

She gushed about her ex, though she kept mum on the subject of recent relationships.

“We can talk about Chris till the dogs come home,” she said. “I married Chris, I had a baby with Chris, Chris will be in my life for the rest of my life. But everything else — I’ve learned that things are better left private until you’re actually planning the wedding.”

And though their romance is over, Kate said she and Chris talk regularly.

“We iChat with Chris constantly,” she added. “No matter what is going on in my life, relationship-wise, Chris takes absolute precedence. It’s important for Ryder to hear me say how wonderful Chris is, and how much Chris misses him.”

It’s son Ryder, 4, who’s the real love of her life. A young mom, Kate doesn’t regret choosing him over Young Hollywood nightlife.

“Am I gonna look back and say, ‘God, I wish I could have gone to that… that… concert?’” she said. “I’d rather be listening to my son sing songs. I’d rather be watching him sleep.”

Though she makes her share of tabloid appearances, it’s the world of weddings that she can’t seem to escape from. Her new film, “Bride Wars,” finds her at odds with Anne Hathaway, with the actresses playing two friends who schedule their weddings on the same day.

“I play the classic extrovert, and she’s the classic introvert,” Kate said. “She sort of goes with the flow, gets a bit walked over sometimes, while I’m that got-it-all-figured-out, everything-needs-to-be-done-my-way, take-care-of-everything type. And that’s kind of how we are.”

The women bonded on set over an obsession with The Knot, a marriage magazine and Web site, she added.

But as for Kate’s own love life, with the actress now reportedly single, following a brief courtship with Lance Armstrong, does she expect to hear wedding bells at any point in the future?

“Every girl wants a fairy-tale ending,” Kate said. “And I believe it’s possible. Absolutely.”

Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong called it quits this weekend after a three-month romance that went public when they were spotted in Austin, Texas in mid-May, Usmagazine.com exclusively reports.

“There was no drama or ugliness – They just decided to end things,” a source close to the couple tells Us. “There is no hatred, just sadness.”

The pair quickly became inseparable with sightings of them in Austin, New York and Los Angeles – though both dodged questions about their relationship.

In the short time they were together, the 29-year-old actress was seen with the 36-year-old cyclist at many of his races and events, including his three-day Lance Armstrong Livestrong Summit in Columbus, Ohio this past weekend.

It was at the conference that Hudson and Armstrong decided to go their separate ways, a source tells Us.

Each had introduced the other to family. Hudson’s mom Goldie Hawn gave what seemed to be her approval at a July 1 lunch at The Ivy at the Shore. Also, Hudson’s four-year-old son Ryder went to a Father’s Day brunch with Armstrong — and dad Chris Robinson – in June.

A rep for Armstrong had no comment while a rep for Hudson could not be reached.

Lance Armstrong and Kate Hudson have already spent time with each other’s kids. On Tuesday, the couple kept their relationship all in the family by hanging out with her mother.

Casually dressed in a gray Nike T-shirt and matching pants, the cycling champ, along with Hudson and her mom, actress Goldie Hawn, met for a late lunch Tuesday afternoon at Ivy at the Shore in Santa Monica, Calif.

The trio, along with an unidentified male, arrived just before 2 p.m. They got some privacy from fellow diners and the throng of paparazzi camped out front by sitting on the patio at the back of the beachside restaurant.

“They looked like they were having a great time and enjoying each other’s company,” says an onlooker. “Goldie was all smiles. Lance was sitting next to her and they were chatting while Kate was laughing. They were all just really happy.”

A tanned Hudson, wearing a long turquoise halter dress, sat on the other side of her beau during the intimate lunch. At the end of the meal, the group left together through the front entrance.

After a vigorous gym session in Santa Monica, lovers Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong gave their mouths a workout with a passionate kiss outside a fitness centre yesterday.

The smitten pair, who have attempted to keep their romance out of the spotlight, pawed one another in front of the public venue as they gave in with reckless abandon.

It’s the second time in a week they’ve struggled to keep their hands off each other - they were spotted kissing on a Brentwood tennis court during a doubles match on Sunday.

The seven-time Tour de France champion, who has previously romanced singer Sheryl Crow, fashion designer Tory Burch and actress Ashley Olsen, has so far dodged questions about his latest relationship.

During a recent appearance on US talkshow The View, he said: ‘I know you have to ask that question . . . and it’s my right not to answer it.’

Kate is also playing coy, saying: ‘It’s better to let … people speculate as much as they want to speculate.’
