WATCH: John Mellencamp says he’s a “chilD” in relationships: “I throw fits, I gripe, I complain. I’m moody.” 

According to a source close to the When Harry Met Sally actress, she was the one to call off their engagement after realising she’d outgrown their relationship. 

“She’d had enough and ended [their engagement],” the source dished. “She has no regrets.”

While the news may come as a shock to some, rumours began swirling their relationship was on the rocks last month when Meg, 57, was spotted out and about on numerous occasions without her wedding ring.
