“Love on the Spectrum” stars Abby Romeo and David Isaacman have confirmed their breakup.
“Abby and David have spent four and a half years together and truly cherish the time they have shared with each other,” Romeo, Isaacman, and their family told People in a joint statement Friday.
“At this time, they want different things and have decided to go their separate ways, but remain friends and wish each other well.”
News of their breakup first surfaced on Thursday, with a source telling US Sun that they “couldn’t come to an agreement on when to get married.”
The source said that while Romeo was “ready” to get married “a few years ago”, Isaacman was held back because his partner “needed more time”.
Despite their breakup after five years together, Romeo, 27, showed love for Isaacman, 31, and said he supports Isaacman’s new children’s book, The Big Five Save the Lions.
Just two weeks before their split broke in the news, Romeo gushed about his love for his now-confirmed ex on the podcast We Need To Talk.
She told host Paul C. Branson that the couple enjoyed going to places together such as the Los Angeles Zoo, Disneyland, Universal Studios and the Griffith Observatory, and shared her favorite things about him.
“He tells me things that make me feel better. He covers my ears when there’s a noise I don’t like,” she said.
Isaacman and Romeo met and fell in love during the first season of the popular show, which aired in 2021.
The former lovebirds revealed their plans to get married during Season 4 of Love on the Spectrum, which premiered on April 1st.
“Neither of us are ready to get married,” Romeo told producers.
“We’re already married in our hearts,” the “Boyfriends Forever” singer explained, adding that she “doesn’t want to be a divorced woman like my mom” and plans to “take my time.”
