Benji Madden won't be enjoying the same domestic bliss as his twin, Joel Madden.The Good Charlotte musician and his fiancee, "Date Movie" star Sophie Monk, are no longer a couple, reports People.
"Sophie and Benji have officially split. The decision was mutual and they remain amicable," the actress's Sydney agent, Yoon Kim, told an Australian newspaper. "This will be my only statement regarding this matter."
