LOS ANGELES, May 26 (UPI) -- Hollywood actress Jodie Foster left Cydney Bernard, her girlfriend of 14 years, for screenwriter Cindy Mort, sources told Britain's Daily Mail newspaper.

Foster, a two-time Oscar-winning actress, and Bernard had been raising Foster's two children together. However, Foster reportedly left Bernard for Mort, whom the film star met on the set of her 2007 revenge drama "The Brave One."

The Mail said Mort had been raising 10-year-old twins Olivia and Miles with her girlfriend, actress Melanie Mayron at the time of the split.

"Cydney had no idea their relationship was in trouble until Jodie came home one day and told her she'd fallen in love with Cindy and was moving out. Cydney is devastated," the source told the newspaper. "Cindy wants to stay friends with Melanie because of the twins but Melanie has taken it very hard. It's not easy to be dumped for the most famous lesbian in Hollywood. It is the biggest lesbian love scandal to grip this town in years."
