Lady Gaga and Taylor Kinney End Their Engagement After Five Years Together

Lady Gaga and Taylor Kinney are going their separate ways. 

The longtime couple recently ended their engagement, PEOPLE confirms.

Kinney popped the question in 2015 on Valentine’s Day with a heart-shaped ring after four years together. “I really can’t imagine being with anyone other than who I’m with right now,” the singer told Howard Stern right before the proposal. “He is the right guy. I have that feeling. I just know it.”


The couple have always been very supportive of each other’s careers. At the Golden Globes this year, Gaga, 30, revealed Kinney, 35, turned down the opportunity to take the stage at the award ceremony to make sure all eyes were on her. 

“Do you want to know something wonderful?” she gushed to PEOPLE. “They asked him to present tonight, but he said no because he just wanted it to be my night and he wanted to support me. Isn’t that special? I just found that out. I love him so much." 

Earlier this year, Kinney told PEOPLE he and the Grammy winner were keeping their wedding plans "a surprise.” He also attended the Academy Awardswith Gaga, who gave an emotional performance of her song “Til It Happens to You.”


“I never thought anyone would ever love me because I felt like my body was ruined by my abuser. But he loves the survivor in me. He’s stood by me all night proudly and unashamedly. THATS a real man,” Gaga captioned an Instagram photo of the duo afterwards. 

Gaga is currently vacationing in Cabo with friends and is no longer sporting her engagement ring. According to TMZ (who was first the report the news), the couple called it quits earlier this month. 

Reps for the stars have not commented.
