Kanye West and his fiancee Alexis Phifer have split, a source tells Usmagazine.com.
A source close to the couple tells Us that “Kanye is possessed by the tour and everything going on and just couldn’t keep it going. They are still friends and have broken up and gotten back together before, so it could work out.”
A rep for West had no comment.
West, 30, proposed to Phifer in 2006 while vacationing in Italy.
Sources close to the Grammy-Award winning rapper previously told Us that he would tie the knot with Phifer to honor his late mother Donda’s wishes that they make their relationship official. (Phifer stood by West’s side after Donda died following plastic surgery last year.)
“I’m just going to go and get married,†West told GQ last year. “I’m not going to make a big deal out of it.â€
The couple — who were honored at Us‘ Hot Hollywood bash last year — had been dating since 2002, but split briefly in 2004 when West briefly hooked up with Brooke Crittendon, an assistant at MTV, a source told Us.
