According to PageSize, “Glee” alum Amber Riley and her fiance, Desean Black, have called off their engagement.
On Tuesday, the representative said, “They ask for privacy during this time.”
Breakup rumors surfaced last month when Riley, 36, said she was “single” on a March episode of the “Nice & Neat The Podcast.” At the time, she was also not wearing her engagement ring.
“I am a single black female. I am. I’m a single back female, but I’m not a crazy one like in the movie,” Riley said, referring to her 2022 Lifetime film “Single Black Female.”
“I wish him the best. I don’t have anything horrible or bad to say,” she continued, adding that the split was “amicable.”
“There was a time when I thought I didn’t want or deserve this kind of love. I’m looking at a man who changed my mind,” she captioned the post. “My time by myself, loving on myself, getting comfortable with myself, prepared me for you, and prepared me for this.”
She ended the engagement announcement with, “What God has joined together, let no man separate.”
The relationship began after Riley slid into Black’s DMs and the former couple hit it off. She previously published a screenshot of the remarks on Instagram, but it has since been removed.
“Hey Desean, how are you?” Riley’s message read, to which he replied, “Hey beautiful, I’m doing great, and you???”
Ever since the separation, Riley said she has been putting herself first.
“It’s taken me a couple of years to understand that choosing myself is not selfish,” she said on the podcast.
