Hotel heiress Paris Hilton has been named in American newspaper reports as the woman behind the break-up of producer Robert Evans' latest failed marriage.

Pals of the sexy blonde claim she was responsible for causing a rift between Evans and his sixth wife, LESLIE ANN WOODWARD, after forming a close bond with the THE KID STAYS IN THE PICTURE movie-maker.

One friend tells the NEW YORK POST's PAGESIX website, "Robert loves Paris. They met at (Rush Hour director) Brett Ratner's house.

"He calls her constantly. They hung out before and after the MTV AWARDS."
