When both Turner and his girlfriend were at the Glastonbury festival, the couple barely spoke to each other.

The outlet also reported that the pair decided to go their separate ways and remain friends since their relationship wasn’t working out. They reported,

“Alexa and Alex both wanted things to work. It was best that they both got out now and saved their friendship.”

Chung’s spokeswoman, Liz Matthews, also confirmed Turner and his girlfriend’s split. “It’s completely amicable—but yes, it’s true. They have split.”
