Just five months ago, Nick Viall and Venessa Grimaldi became engaged on The Bachelor, and according to E! News, they have changed their mind.

“It’s with a great amount of heartbreak for the both us as we have decided to end our engagement,” the couple told E! in a statement. “We gave this relationship our all and we are saddened that we did not get the fairytale ending we hoped for. We will continue to be there for each other no matter what. This hasn’t been an easy decision, however, as we part ways, we do so with lots of love and admiration for each other.”

Well, sometimes a relationship ends exactly the way it began — with a public announcement!
