Lance and Sheryl call it quits

Lance Armstrong & Sheryl Crow Split

February 3, 2006

In another shocking celebrity breakup, LANCE ARMSTRONG and SHERYL CROW have split, according to People magazine. The seven-time Tour de France bicycling champion and the rockstar musician got engaged in September 2005, when Armstrong proposed to Crow in Sun Valley, ID, not long after he retired from the pro circuit in July. He and Crow officially became an item back in early 2004.

"After much thought and consideration we have made a very tough decision to split up. We both have a deep love and respect for each other and we ask that everyone respect our privacy during this very difficult time," a joint statement released to People through Armstrong's spokesman read.

Armstrong, 33, has a son and two twin daughters from a previous marriage. Grammy winner Crow, 42, has previously been linked to ERIC CLAPTON, OWEN WILSON and KID ROCK.

The couple spoke to BARBARA WALTERS last November, when Armstrong was named one of Walters' "Most Fascinating People." While showing off her six-carat diamond engagement ring, the two talked about what drew them together.

"She's hot," Lance said. "I saw that!"

But Sheryl said she just knew he was the one. "I think sometimes you meet people and they just strike such a familiar chord with you," she said. "I just thought I had known him forever."

Lance also spoke to our KEVIN FRAZIER about his love for Crow in August 2005, saying, "We plan on having a long future together."

look out ladies, here comes the Uniballer!

Armstrong's ego and class has actually gotten a lot better over the years.

kinda lost respect for the man... even though i love biking i didnt know he was such a douche.

Considering the gross factual errors regarding Lance's amateur and pro careers, I'm inclined to think that the rest of what was written was BS as well. Don't believe everything you read.
How do I know those details are wrong? Because I've been following his career since his first Olympic Games in 1992 (even went to go see him race in Barcelona). For all I know some of that crap is true, but a lot of it is wrong for sure, so I can't in good faith take anything from what was written other than that the author doesn't like Lance very much.

As for the "man-whore" quote, he does more or less admit it in his own book, saying he had a rep as a player (the first one, "It's Not About the Bike"). His pals used to call him "Fed-Ex", because he had to have it, overnight.

He met his ex-wife after cancer (during his recovery), and met Sheryl after the divorce or at least separation (forget which).
