Another Bachelorette couple bites the dust.

Ali Fedotowsky and fiance Roberto Martinez have called it quits, the couple's rep confirms to Us Weekly. "Ali Fedotowsky and Roberto Martinez have ended their relationship," their rep said, adding, "As they go through this difficult time, we ask that you respect the couple’s privacy."

Martinez, a 28-year-old insurance agent, popped the question to Fedotowsky, a 27-year-old Facebook employee turned TV personality, in 2009 during the finale of the sixth season of The Bachelorette.

Engaged for 18 months before ending their relationship, Fedotowsky blamed the wedding postponements on scheduling conflicts and a kickboxing injury, but pals told Us last month the issues ran way deeper than that.

"Their relationship has been tumultuous since day one," an insider said. "They're either extremely happy or they can't stand each other."

Stressed by long, hectic work hours and more, the duo (living in San Diego) were prone to big-time fights. "They bring out the worst in each other," another source said.

"She's miserable in the relationship and he is too," a friend of the couple told Us.

    Aw-w-w-w! That is so-o-o sad. I really wanted them to live happyly ever after. There is no laid down rule about where people find love so if it is meant to be it will be irrespective of where or how you meet.

    DUH!! I DO NOT understand why these women think that a relationship built in 13 weeks is LOVE. It is camera induced infatuation. Ryan and Trista are a fluke. No one can find love on either of the "Batchelor" shows and the sooner people realize that the sooner our Divorce Rate and STD Rates will decrease....ABC TV is a STD Carrier.

    Sorry this didnt workout.. I think buy getting a date on tv is asking for trouble, only one couple that r still togther out of the 11 seasons of the Bachelorette Trista and Ryan and thats it...

    well if you bring out the worst in each other it's no good, sometimes loving someone isn't enough to sustain a relationship

    and people are surprised? You don't find true everlasting love on national tv in a few short weeks. and if you believe the rag mags they kept putting off the wedding.

    They're going crazy on her face book page! LOL They actually believed this was a real romance! Roberto can finally move on without her.

  • November 22, 2011 - 8:56am Phyllis Lipkin Stern

    She said he was the one from the get go. I do believe that living together is not a good thing. The Mesnicks did it the right way. Commuting...

    Nooooooooooooo! They have always looked so beautiful together...this was the storybook romance! This is sooooo sad! I hope they work out their issues and come back stronger than ever!

    Everyone please respect their privacy? Who the hell are they? She looks like she was in a muppet movie, was she? He looks like Erik Estrada's younger brother. She should be glad that this handsome latin man even gave her that much of his time.

    ow no.. I hoped they get back together..

  • November 21, 2011 - 10:24pm Nancy Lam

    Everyone, please respect Ali and Roberto's privacy!!!

  • November 21, 2011 - 7:56pm Pat Daley Gaston

    So is roberto now going to be the bachelor....let the drama continue.

  • November 21, 2011 - 7:10pm Eve Torres

    From the get go, they are much too different. I think they got the cash they needed to jumpstart their lives and are moving on. Whatever...love on TV doesn't last. We should get that by now!

  • November 21, 2011 - 5:29pm Connie Chang

    disappointed! would be kinda funny to see Ali and Jake back together, unless he happens to go with Gia

  • November 21, 2011 - 5:22pm Diana Skinner

    Smart him !! Congrads Roberto, don't go back down that road !!

  • November 21, 2011 - 4:06pm P Terrance Nels

    No brainer. She's pretty damn annoying. I'd still let her suck my d*ck though....just sayin'! ;)

  • November 21, 2011 - 3:34pm Michelle Theresa Menchenton
