According to People magazine, Grammy winner Sheryl Crow and seven-time Tour de France champion Lance Armstong have untied the engagement knot and gone their separate ways. The buff rock and roller and cancer survivor bicyclist were engaged last September soon after Armstrong’s retirement from the pro circuit. He and Crow officially began their public displays of affection back in early 2004.
“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,” a joint statement released to People through Amtsrong’s spokesman read.
