Meg Ryan and John Mellencamp have called off their engagement after eight years together.

According to US Weekly, the two have decided to split ways. They quote a source as saying, “She’d had enough and ended [their engagement]. She has no regrets.”

Earlier this week, the actress was spotted at the Academy Of Motion Picture Arts And Sciences' 11th Annual Governors Awards at The Ray Dolby Ballroom at Hollywood & Highland Center.

Ryan looked stunning as she walked the red carpet without Mellencamp.

Ryan and Mellencamp first started dating back in 2011. The two would break up in 2014 but got back together later that year. The couple broke up again in 2015 and reconciled in 2017.

The couple reportedly struggled with long distance issues. Mellencamp once talked to Howard Stern about his relationship saying, “I Love Meg Ryan. She hates me to death. I think it’s because I’m a child. I throw fits, I gripe, I complain. I’m moody.”

They announced their engagement in November 2018. The actress posted a cartoon drawing of themselves captioned, “ENGAGED!”

Ryan spoke to InStyle following her engagement, “Today I’m happy too. Yes, I’m going to get married at some point. But for now this engagement thing is a state of grace.”

The actress was previously married to actor Dennis Quaid for 10 years. They share a son Jack Quaid. She also has a daughter Daisy True Ryan.

She said, “Most of all, what I’m ambitious for in the 12 hours a day that I’m awake is my kids’ happiness. I just am. I’m either figuring out how to provide for them, figuring out how to say it right, figuring out all those mom things. I want them to be happy.”
