Jason Derulo and Jordin Sparks have split up.
The couple - who officially confirmed their relationship in 2012 and have been dating on and off for two years - are said to have come to a mutual agreement to call time on their relationship after struggling to make it work due to their busy work schedules.
A source told US Weekly: "They are both upset. It just wasn't working out. It was a lot of travel and hard to work with their schedules."
The news comes just weeks after Jason, 25, gushed about the 'No Air' singer and claimed he knew she was "the one".
The 'Talk Dirty' hitmaker confessed he was determined to have the 24-year-old singer romantically involved in his life long-term after he broke one of his vertebrae in 2012.
Asked when he realised she was his match, he replied: "I knew that pretty early on. I felt that when I was in the hospital with my neck injury. I felt different ... I felt like I needed her in my world."
However, he also recognised the difficulties of having a relationship in the public eye.
He explained: "You know, of course we have our problems just like anybody else. But our relationship is a positive one and that's good for people to see in today's entertainment industry."

Tyler Perry is to become a father.
The television writer and producer let slip that his on-off girlfriend, model Gelila Bekele, is pregnant with his first child as he celebrated his 45th birthday at a party with his close friends.
According to the New York Post newspaper's Page Six column, a source said: "He said he had to start getting used to not getting a lot of sleep, because his life was about to change in a big way. He said, 'Some of you know what I'm talking about.'"
The news follows rumours that Gelila, 28, was expecting after close friends of the couple accidentally posted messages of congratulations on social media, with one even posting a picture of the mother-to-be and commenting that she was 7 months along and expecting a boy, before the image was quickly deleted.
Tyler - who is yet to confirm the news - has previously expressed his desire to become a father but insisted he didn't have the time for parenthood.
He said last year: "I know I would be a great father. I don't want to work this hard, I don't want to have all this and not leave it to my children. I also know, that as hard as I'm working -- doing 20 hours a day -- now is not the time."

Amber Rose has been left "devastated" by her split from Wiz Kalifa.
The 30-year-old model - who filed for divorce from the 'Black and Yellow' hitmaker yesterday (24.09.14) over suspicions he had been unfaithful to her - took to Twitter today to express her sadness at the breakdown of their marriage and thanked those who had offered her support.
Amber - who has a 19-month-old son Sebastian with the 27-year-old rapper - also slammed "fake" rumours which allege she had grown close to Nick Cannon following his split from Mariah Carey.
She wrote earlier today(25.09.14): "Please stop with the fake stories. I would never ever ever cheat on my husband in a million years I think u guys know this.....
"Unfortunately my now ex husband can't say the same....
"I'm devastated and crushed but my main focus is Sebastian. Thank u for all the support in this difficult time.(sic)"
It is thought the US-born beauty filed for divorce after growing tired of the 'We Dem Boyz' hitmaker 's flimsy excuses for why she couldn't join him on the road and grew increasingly suspicious of his behaviour when he began his tour in July and refused to let her attend.
According to court documents, obtained by gossip website TMZ.com, the stunning blonde cites irreconcilable differences and wants full legal and physical custody of Sebastian, but is willing to give Wiz visitation access.
Sources close to the former couple say their split is bitter amid rumours Amber recently started hanging out with Nick Cannon following his separation from his wife Mariah Carey.
However, those close to Nick - who has three-year-old twins Monroe and Moroccan with the 'We Belong Together' singer - have rubbished the claims.
An insider insists the 'America's Got Talent' star only learned that Amber was having marriage troubles last week through her lawyers when he signed her on as a client.
They said: "That's when Nick says he found out her marriage was on the rocks and only then did the two share break-up stories."

Kim Kardashian has been attacked at Paris Fashion Week.
The 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' star was making her way to the Balmain SS15 show in the French capital with her husband, Kanye West, earlier today (25.09.14) when she was ambushed by renowned Hollywood prankster Vitalii Sediuk who attempted to knock her off her feet.
The Ukranian-born media personality, 25, is believed to have moved towards the reality TV star as she exited her car and tackled her causing her to fall backwards as the brunette beauty's mother, Kris Jenner, can be heard shouting, "Stop it!".
Kim, 33, was quickly grabbed by bodyguards, who shielded her from the attack and helped her make her way through the crowd into the show, according to a video obtained by gossip website TMZ.com.
The prank is Vitalii's first following his claims in July he had entered into "retirement" and apologised to his celebrity victims.
The former journalist - who also scaled a barrier at the 'Maleficent' premiere to confront Brad Pitt and has previously accosted stars including Bradley Cooper, Leonardo DiCaprio and Will Smith at red carpet events - insisted he had changed his ways and was moving to London to launch a modelling career.
He said at the time: "Basically, I'm changing my life. I would like to thank Hollywood for having me this two years and a half. It was an experience that taught me a lot in life. Most importantly, I would like to say sorry for celebrities that had to deal with my stunts and thank them for being tolerant to me all this time."
TMZ.com also reports that reps for Vitalii have been in contact to confirm he is taking credit for the incident.

Rod Stewart is being sued for $10,000 after breaking a fan's nose with a soccer ball.
The 'Maggie May' hitmaker was performing a show at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas in October 2012 when he forcefully kicked the ball into the audience and hit an onlooker in the face.
Fan Mostafa Kashe is now claiming the staggering sum to compensate for his lost wages, his cosmetic surgery bills and his attorney fees following the incident.
According to the Reno Gazette-Journal, the 53-year-old electrical engineer claims the 69-year-old singer was "negligent, careless and/or reckless" in his actions causing him to be "unexpectedly hit in the face" with the flying ball.
The civil negligence lawsuit, filed by Mostafa at the Clark County district court in Nevada, reads: "Stewart has significant experience in the sport of soccer and experience in kicking soccer balls, having previously tried out for a professional soccer team in the UK and regularly playing in amateur soccer leagues since his youth.
"Stewart either knew or should have known that his actions could cause injury to unsuspecting patrons of his concerts."
He is also reported to be suing Caesars Palace and concert promoters AEG Live.
Meanwhile, Rod - who often kicks signed soccer balls out into the crowd during his gigs - reportedly told The Daily Record that his shows wouldn't be the same if he was to stop the tradition.
He said: "The show wouldn't be the show if I stopped kicking out those footballs. It would be like not playing Maggie May."

will.i.am unveiled his custom-designed Lexus NX in Paris last night (25.09.14).
The 39-year-old singer hosted a special event at exclusive venue Pavillion Cambon in the French capital, where he turned up on the stage inside the impressive vehicle, a special edition Lexus NX 200t F SPORT, before getting out of the car and putting on a scintillating DJ set for the 600-strong crowd.
Earlier in the evening, will admitted he was conscious about making too many changes to the original motor because he didn't want his version of the car, which features four external cameras enabling panoramic pictures to be captured while driving and then sent to a phone, to be like a "Frankenstein"-type vehicle.
Speaking to BANG Showbiz at the event, he said: "I didn't want to make a Frankenstein, I just wanted to enhance.
"The NX is an amazing design by default so if that's the default then I thought why can't we make it better. Why wasn't it wider?
"I'm pretty sure my design isn't too different from the original design. Because the designer was like, 'Yes, it's sexy, there are striking angles.' "
The Black Eyed Peas frontman admitted there were certain elements of the black and white car he wanted to alter, such as making it even wider than his final effort, but he wasn't able to due to safety concerns.
He added: "You have your ideas but then you take it to market and then it changes.
"If we widen it then we have to lower it so can we chop the window? Then they say, 'Well, we can't do that because then we're going to have air bag problems and we've already passed all the safety stuff.'
"But if you want to be disrespectful then you say, 'Who gives a f**k? Let's cut the air bags.' But you can't do that."
will wowed the crowd with an entertaining DJ set that saw him play several of his own tracks including '#thatPOWER' and a selection of Black Eyed Peas hits such as 'I Gotta Feeling'.
He had the audience chuckling at one stage when he changed some of the words to his and Britney Spears' collaboration 'Scream and Shout', replacing her name with Lexus by shouting "will.i.am and Lexus, bitch".
Other features of will's NX include an ultra wide body kit, a custom-built steering wheel and hand embroidered Nappa leather interior with his 'willpower' logo and huge 22-inch alloy wheels.
