No wonder Heidi Klum needed a break from Vito Schnabel! Days after she confirmed their split after three years together, reports surfaced that the art curator got in trouble with the law less than a month before their breakup.

And while this certainly does not look good, Heidi and Vito’s relationship was allegedly on the rocks even prior to this latest incident. A source previously told Us, “There has been trouble in paradise for a little while.”
