Jaime Pressly: Splits for fiance's lack of time

Jaime Pressly split from her fiance Eric Cubiche because the DJ wasn't around enough.

In November, 18 months after baby Dezi James was born, the former couple ended its engagement.

Now Pressly has opened up about the split, insisting their relationship changed when Cubiche began spending more and more time away from home.

The actress tells America's Redbook magazine, "When I was pregnant, Eric's job changed. He became a travelling deejay. So he was gone a lot... We'd been best friends for so long, and now it was kind of like we were leading two separate lives.

"It's hard because when you're with somebody for a long time or have a child with someone, you start to expect them to be this person you had in mind. Then, if they don't fill the expectation, resentment starts to come up. Sometimes it just doesn't work."

Jaime Pressly has full custody of her son but insists, "Eric's very much a part of his life; he's a great father."
