Lady Gaga and Christian Carino's story has come to an end. After garnering critical acclaim for her first major film role in A Star Is Born, the "Applause" singer announced her engagement to Christian Carino back in October. Today, however, a rep for the singer confirmed to People that the couple has called off their engagement and split.
Back in 2018, rumors swirled for months that Gaga and Carino — a talent agent at CAA — were planning on getting hitched. However, the former American Horror Story star only confirmed their status during her speech at Monday's Elle Women in Hollywood event.
