Sounds like they had a nasty fight.
Damn, they were one Hollywood couple I thought would last...
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - Lance Armstrong and Sheryl Crow have split, the couple announced in a joint statement Friday night.
The seven-time Tour de France champion and the rock star announced their engagement in September. It would have been her first marriage and his second. He has three children from a previous marriage.
"After much thought and consideration we have made a very tough decision to split up. We both have a deep love and respect for each other and we ask that everyone respect our privacy during this very difficult time," the statement said.
Armstrong, 34, recovered from testicular cancer that had spread to his lungs and brain to become the dominant athlete in one of the world's most grueling sporting events.
His seven consecutive Tour de France les from 1999 to 2005 are a race record. He retired after winning his last race with Crow rooting him on.
Armstrong and the 43-year-old Crow met in October 2003 and began dating shortly after that.
Crow called Armstrong the inspiration for her last album, "Wildflower," which was released in September.
Crow talked about being part of a celebrity couple in an interview with The Associated Press in November, saying she wasn't crazy about all the attention that goes with it.
She said celebrity magazines are more interested in seeing a couple break up than reporting on them being happy together.
"When we were rumored to have split, and when our publicists called these magazines to say we haven't split, the magazines were all so disappointed because that's really what's selling, rooting for a couple and then they split," she said. "That's what sells the magazines.
"Why can't we just report things the way they are or see things for the good in them? ... It's an insidious energy."
Armstrong lives in the Austin area, with a ranch in nearby Dripping Springs and is nearing completion on another home in Austin.

It's sad how so many celebrity couples are breaking up.![]()
Yep, I heard Heather Locklier and her hubby also broke up.
It's not SAD... don't ever cry a teer for people that own luxury jet's, mansions and many millions in the bank.
I don't think Lance and Crow will have a hard time getting laid...
So.. just because they are rich and have a private jet means they don't have feelings like the rest of us?!
Emotional loss hurts, whether you have money or not!
I think having all that material wealth but not having anyone to enjoy your life and love with would make you feel even emptier inside.
I really thought they were getting married. They seemed so happy on Oprah.
She probably mentioned Jan Ulrich...
....See? It's the Oprah curse, I'm telling you! Tony and Eva should cancel their segment on Monday.
I can't wait to see Tony and Eva on Oprah... They look so cute in the pictures on www.oprah.com
Hopefully they won't break up though like the rest!
Expect the same thing to happen to Tony and Eva anytime soon
Now I belive in global warming ( unfroze or something)
That's my philosophy about a certain other relationship and I get slammed, how is that fair?
If I was Lance I would go shopping for a new GF in France. Steal a good one and bring her back to Amerika. That would piss off the French.
And I think Crow should hook up with George Clooney. Or is he gay?
He's not gay, but he is George freakin Clooney, he could do way better than Sherryl Crow.
Meeting of the minds.... Bush bashing joy....
That dubya bike ride was the last straw for crow.
"Either me or dubya".. But he's the POTUS.. I don't care if you.. oh secret service is here I got to go.. TRAITOR!!
