World Cup winner Adil Rami has reportedly been dumped by actress Pamela Anderson after she rejected his marriage proposal.

The couple had been dating for more than a year before the France defender gave Anderson a promise ring following his country's triumph in Russia.

According to TMZ, the pair discussed the idea of marriage but Anderson, who at 51 is 21 years Rami's senior, decided against it and is preparing to move out of their home in the French Riviera.

The Cartier ring she received has reportedly been given to her eldest son Brandon.

Anderson is due to star in the French version of Dancing With The Stars and according to Page Six , she feels she is a barrier to Rami seeing his two young sons.

“After spending this past week with Adil’s cute twin sons… it broke Pam’s heart that he doesn’t see them enough, as he should, so she’s moving out,” a source told the publication.

“Pamela feels she is the reason Adil doesn’t spend enough time with his children. She is removing herself from his life so he can do the right thing and be with his kids.

"It’s a selfless move by Pamela, a true romantic — and she is heartbroken. Adil has difficulty balancing his life with Pamela and what should be a healthy relationship with his ex, the mother of his children."

The report also claims Anderson hopes Rami can reunite with the mother of his children.

Rami was an unused substitute for France's 0-0 draw with Germany this week having failed to play a minute of his country's World Cup triumph.

The defender has played in each of Marseille's three league games this season.
