According to TMZ, the couple reportedly ended their relationship earlier this month. However, the sources of the site noted that it is not yet clear who initiated the break up.

But, hours after the report came out, Lady Gaga took to Instagram to inform her followers about the real situation between her and Kinney. According to the American Horror Story: Hotel star, she and her fiancé merely decided to take a break. She noted that issues such as conflicts in their schedules and other personal matters have taken a toll on their relationship. 

A representative of the singer confirmed Lady Gaga's statement.

An insider close to the entertainer also said that even though Lady Gaga and Kinney love each other, they are having a hard time making their relationship work due to their various projects. According to the source, Lady Gaga is currently working on her new album while Kinney is busy with his television shows, which include Chicago Fire, Chicago P.D. and Chicago Med.

"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 told People. "They both love each other very much and they want it to work. It's just been tough with the long distance."
