Rapper Kanye West and his fiancée of a year and a half, designer Alexis Phifer have broken off their engagement, Phifer confirms to PEOPLE exclusively.
“It’s always sad when things like this end, and we remain friends,” Phifer tells PEOPLE. “I wish him the best in his future and all of his endeavors. He’s one of the most talented people I’ve ever met.”
Phifer was spotted on the red carpet sans her engagement ring at an “Evenings in Vogue” event on Thursday night in New York, where her clothing line, Ghita, was featured.
“They’d been having problems,” a pal of West’s says. “Kanye is really focused on his show; he’s putting everything into the show right now. Alexis is a nice girl, but Kanye has been going through a rough time. They hit a rough patch and for now they’ve split.”
Awww…Kanye and Alexis were one of my fav couples. They have had an on again off again type of relationship, so perhaps one day they will reconcile.
What do you guys think of the breakup? Who takes the top Hip Hop couple crown now- Nas & Kelis or Jay-Z & Beyonce?

Reecie I read about that Sunday on another site and I wasn’t sure if it was true or not.
But unfortunatley it is.what a shame!
I really like Kanye west and even though I didn’t know that much about Aleixs,they looked good together.
I was so happy that he had somebody by his side when his mother passed away.
I really do hope that they get back together in the near future!
I would say Rihanna and Chris Brown but that would only be because I like the idea of them being together but on the real,Beyonce and Jay Z take the top hip hop couple crown!
S.S one day me and u will take the top
R n B/pop crown.
Haha I had to laugh to myself on that one.will never happen,I know
I think Reecie is Kanye’s type. Holler!
Come on, who’s surprised? Kanye West has attention deficit disorder.
Me too Mr Honorable!
