“Their friends didn’t really expect them to last in the long-run,” a source tells PEOPLE.
“At the end of the day, their personalities are very different and their lifestyles often clashed,” the source adds. “Things have felt super heavy in the relationship for a while, and it got to be too much. They’re both very professional though and trying to be as amicable and friendly as possible.”
