Just a “bad romance”?
After numerous reports exposing her shocking break-up with beau Taylor Kinney, Italian-American pop singer Lady Gaga released a statement on her Instagram account on Tuesday night to say that they are “taking a break”.
The 30-year-old “Bad Romance” singer released a statement on her Instagram account. “Taylor and I have always believed we are soulmates. Just like all couples we have ups and downs, and we have been taking a break. We are both ambitious artists, hoping to work through long-distance and complicated schedules to continue the simple love we have always shared. Please root us on. We’re just like everybody else and we really love each other,” she explained.

An insider also confirmed to entertainment news site People that Gaga and Kinney’s long-distance relationship challenged them, but the star-studded couple is not throwing their relationship on the rocks.
“She’s working on an album, he’s working on his show, they aren’t in the same state, it was just hard,” the insider said. “They both love each other very much and they want it to work. It’s just been tough with the long distance.”
The couple was engaged last year and were in a relationship for five years. Gaga and Kinney, 35, started dating in 2011 when they met at Gaga’s “Yoü and I” music video shoot.
Citing reports by TMZ and E! News, Lady Gaga was recently seen not wearing her engagement ring during her recent trip to an orphanage in Mexico. Gianna Francesca Catolico
