Earlier this week, Riverdale fans were bummed to learn that Bughead is no longer—at least offscreen, after reports surfaced that [Lili Reinhart] (Betty) (https://www.glamour.com/about/lili-reinhart) and Cole Sprouse (Jughead) have reportedly broken up.

According to People, the couple’s friends “didn’t really expect them to last in the long-run.”

“At the end of the day, their personalities are very different and their lifestyles often clashed,” the magazine’s source continued. “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.”

While neither Sprouse nor Reinhart has confirmed the breakup, news of the split broke over the weekend as the cast of Riverdale was making an appearance at Comic-Con in San Diego.

The couple has been together for nearly two years, and while there has been much interest—from fans and the media—about their relationship, both have tried to maintain a semblance of privacy. “Lili and I are constantly talked about in the public eye, and for me I think that it is being deeply informed by the love of the characters and wanting to see us together,” Sprouse told People in March 2018. “I think that in many ways it’s offensive and an invasion of privacy, but it’s also a badge of honor because it means you’re creating a chemistry onscreen that is so understandable that people want to see it in real life, which is flattering from a professional perspective. I just never talk about it because it’s not anyone’s right to know.”

”I’m not okay talking about my relationship,” Reinhart told Harper’s Bazaar last summer. “I’m not going to tell you my love story. That’s just not appropriate right now.”

Hey, at least Betty and Jughead are still together, right?
