"They talked long and hard about it, but they didn't think it would work staying together just for the children," an insider close to the former couple claimed.

Sources said their romance fizzled just as Allen's career took off. The Make Me Want To hitmaker recently wrapped his opening for Carrie Underwood's tour and has been soaking up his success after a string of No. 1 hits.

Gale and Allen announced they were calling it quits in a joint statement shared on April 21, sharing how they were both committed to co-parenting and ensuring their children always come first. The former couple's third child is due sometime later this year.

Both chose to turn off the comments section on their respective posts.

Fans were shocked to hear about their breakup after following their duo's love story. They got engaged in July 2019 and tied the knot in May 2021. The exes are currently the parents of Naomi and Zara. Allen also shares a son with a previous partner.

They explained, "He's just trying to figure out the best way to be a great dad to his kids."
