Max George and Michelle Keegan have called off their engagement
The Wanted singer confirmed he and the `Coronation Street` actress - who got engaged in June 2011 after a whirlwind romance - are no longer engaged, although a spokesperson for Michelle insists they are still in a relationship.
When questioned on US radio station KIIS-FM by presenters Ryan Seacrest and Ellen K, on if he is engaged, Max replied: "No, no, no, not anymore" before the telephone interview abruptly ended.
Ryan and Ellen admitted to listeners they were unsure if they had been deliberately cut off or if the connection had dropped out. When Max, 23, eventually did come back on the line Ryan asked if he was enjoying the benefits of being in a boy band, to which he replied: "Absolutely."
The station`s twitter feed also posted: "BREAKING: @MaxTheWanted from @thewantedmusic is not engaged anymore! (sic)"
A spokesperson for Michelle told Digital Spy: "Michelle and Max are still very much together as a couple, but they are both traditionalists and realised that there is no point in being engaged until they are in a position to plan a wedding."
