Bella Thorne and Benjamin Mascolo announced their engagement over a year ago. Earlier this week, reports emerged that the couple had decided to call it quits. The breakup news was even confirmed by Benjamin in a social media post. Now, Bella has finally addressed the issue.

In an Instagram Story, Thorne shared a selfie of herself and asked for privacy while she is going through the breakup. The 24-year-old actor and 28-year-old Italian singer were together for three years after meeting on Instagram and falling in love at Coachella in 2019.

After what seemed like a long-distance relationship, Mascolo popped the question in March 2021 with a pear-shaped diamond ring and shared the engagement photos on Instagram. After reports surfaced claiming the couple ended things on June 2, Thorne confirmed the breakup rumors were true in a June 3 on Instagram Story.

The star wrote on Instagram, “I broke up with ben [sic] for my owns [sic] reasons please stop asking this is a personal matter.” Mascolo reposted it on his account and added, “Please respect her space 🤍” In a lengthy statement Mascolo shared on Instagram on June 2, he wished her the best and said he “will always be there for her.”
