Matters of the heart: The love life of Paris Hilton

Rumoured to have had dalliances with people as diverse as Leonardo Di Caprio, Jared Leto and Mark Philippoussis, Paris Hilton has never been short of a man in her life. We take a look at Paris’s romantic history.

Nick Carter

Paris met the former Backstreet Boy in 2003, and they stayed together for seven months. It was reported that Paris decided to end the relationship because her psychic advised her to.

Paris Latsis

Paris and Greek shipping magnate Latsis met when Paris was 14 and Latsis 16, but romance didn’t blossom until 2005. They got engaged in May of that year but the whirlwind romance was over before the year was out.

Rick Salomon

The 40-year-old is notorious for releasing the infamous One Night in Paris, which propelled Hilton into public consciousness. He has been married to Pamela Anderson, Shannen Doherty and Elizabeth Daily.

Stavros Niarchos III

Just days after announcing her split from Latsis, Paris was pictured kissing Stavros Niarchos. Their relationship lasted for just five months.

Jason Shaw

The Tommy Hilfiger model and the hotel heiress were together for two-and-a-half years, and got engaged in 2002. The couple broke up eight months later, with Paris saying she felt she was too young to get married.

Deryck Whibley

Paris’s current squeeze, Good Charlotte’s Benji Madden, isn’t her first rock boyfriend. She acquired her taste for the rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle from Sum 41 singer Deryck. The pair met in the summer of 2003 only to split when Deryck started dating Avril Lavigne.
