Their “fake” split may have raked in a few dollars – but that’s clearly not enough to keep Speidi in the lifestyle they’ve grown accustomed to!

Due to Spencer Pratt’s love of healing crystals and expensive cars, and Heidi Montag’s passion for plastic surgery, the pair are reportedly broke!

According to RadarOnline, the ‘Hills’ stars have run into such serious money problems, they’ve even had to flee their Malibu home after being unable to pay the rent.

Now the reality couple, who were snapped frolicking and kissing on the beach this week, have moved into one of Spencer’s mum’s beach houses.

A source revealed, "The truth is that they are cash-strapped right now and their only real form of income these days is from set-up paparazzi photographs.

"But the U.S. magazines are not really that interested in them anymore and they are becoming increasingly difficult to deal with.

"A lot of the editors know that the recent split story was a complete sham and they realize that there readers can see through it all now too.

"The reality is that they earned a lot of money but did not invest it wisely, spent way too much, and now they are in trouble."


Earlier this year the ‘Hills’ bad boy admitted his spending had gotten way out of control.



At the time he confessed, "I am so addicted to crystals, it's like a sickness.

"I've spent $500,000 on crystals this year. I checked my bank account last night, and I have $203 left. There's a whole science to this. I'm not crazy."
