<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 30px; margin-bottom: 17px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The former couple, who began dating in 2011 after meeting on the set of Gaga's "Yoü and I" music video, have called it quits, sources tell E! News. The breakup comes after months of speculation that the "Poker Face" singer, 30, and the <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Chicago Fire</em> actor, 35, were on the outs.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 30px; margin-bottom: 17px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"They want to keep it private," an insider says. "It's heartbreaking."</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 30px; margin-bottom: 17px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Last week—on Kinney's birthday—Gaga was photographed without her engagement ring. When she performed at an orphanage in Mexico earlier this week, the ring was again missing. Neither Gaga nor Kinney has commented on the matter, and it's unclear who initiated the split.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 30px; margin-bottom: 17px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">From the beginning, though, it was obvious the pair shared a deep and meaningful connection. "When you meet someone that's not intimidated by the amazing people that are around you [or] by the love that you receive—that's love," Gaga told <a href="http://www.eonline.com/news/654467/lady-gaga-says-she-will-take-fiance-taylor-kinney-s-last-name-watch-now" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 900; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Fashion</em></a> magazine in 2013. "Men weren't always happy for me. It was very challenging to watch a woman be so successful."</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 30px; margin-bottom: 17px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Kinney was The One, according to Gaga. "I really can't imagine being with anyone other than who I'm with right now," the Golden Globe winner told <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;"><a href="http://www.eonline.com/news/howard_stern" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none;">Howard Stern</a></strong> in a December 2014 SiriusXM interview. "He is the right guy. I have that feeling. I just know it."</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 30px;">The pair's relationship only deepened in the following years. To Gaga's surprise and delight, Kinney </span><a href="http://www.eonline.com/news/626023/lady-gaga-is-engaged-to-taylor-kinney-see-her-perfect-valentine-s-day-engagement-ring" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 900; line-height: 30px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">proposed</a><span style="line-height: 30px;"> on Valentine's Day in 2015 with a heart-shaped diamond ring. Three months later, Gaga told </span><em style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 30px;"><a href="http://wwd.com/fashion-news/designer-luxury/lady-gaga-wedding-dress-10130792/" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 900; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Women's Wear Daily</a></em><span style="line-height: 30px;"> that she was looking for a wedding dress with her fiance in mind. "It will be totally for Taylor. It's all about my man," the Grammy winner revealed. "I haven't really thought about anything specific yet, but whatever it is, it will be totally for him."Gaga spent the summer and fall filming FX's </span><em style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 30px;">American Horror Story: Hotel</em><span style="line-height: 30px;">, while Kinney filmed the fourth season of </span><em style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 30px;">Chicago Fire</em><span style="line-height: 30px;"> and guest arcs on </span><em style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 30px;">Chicago P.D.</em><span style="line-height: 30px;"> and </span><em style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 30px;">Chicago Med</em><span style="line-height: 30px;">. "We don't have a date," Kinney told </span><strong style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 30px;"><a href="http://www.eonline.com/news/meredith_vieira" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none;">Meredith Vieira</a></strong><span style="line-height: 30px;"> on her </span><a href="http://www.eonline.com/news/708691/taylor-kinney-dishes-on-upcoming-wedding-to-lady-gaga-i-could-go-to-the-little-white-chapel" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 900; line-height: 30px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">daytime talk show</a><span style="line-height: 30px;"> in October</span><em style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 30px;">.</em><em style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 30px;"> "</em><span style="line-height: 30px;">It's kind of a logistics thing right now.

<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 30px; margin-bottom: 17px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"I could go to the Little White Chapel, but I think...well, she's an Italian and that won't happen," the TV star continued. "She wants a nice big wedding, so I'll let you know when we get a date."</span></div>
