So much for her happy ending. Andi Dorfman is back on the  market just five months after Bachelor Nation watched her accept a proposal from  finalist Josh Murray on the July 28 finale of The  Bachelorette‘s 10th season, their rep confirms to Us Weekly.

“After several months of being engaged and working on our relationship, we  have decided that it’s best for both of us to go our separate ways,” they said  in a statement on Thursday, Jan. 8. “We are very sad that it has come to this  point, but this is what’s best for both of us individually.  We will continue to  be good friends and have nothing but great things to say about each other and  wish each other the best.”

The news comes just three days after Dorfman, 27, and Murray, 30, walked the  red carpet together at ABC’s season 19 premiere event for The  Bachelor on Monday, Jan. 5. At the time, Murray told  Us that although they hadn’t started wedding planning yet, they  were “looking forward to kind of settling down with each other” in 2015.

“I think we’re open to whatever,” the ex Bachelorette said of her  thoughts on their nuptials. “Honestly we haven’t even taken a breath in  2014…so once we take a breath we’ll figure out what we want.”

Added her former baseball-playing beau: “The traveling has been really good.  It’s been a lot of fun; we just haven’t settled down yet.”

The two went on to talk about date nights — Dorfman learned to cook some of  her now-ex-fiance’s favorite foods — and living together, telling  Us they might be looking to move in the future.

“I can’t even get in the closet,” Murray joked of Dorfman’s messiness, adding  that he recently woke up with a pin in his leg from her sewing. “We just need a  bigger place. This is the problem.”

As Bachelorette fans saw last summer, Dorfman chose Murray over  runner-up Nick Viall, accepting his proposal (and a big diamond  ring!) on the finale. “Andi, you are the answer to all my prayers, you are the  woman of my dreams,” he said at the time. “When I look in your eyes…I see a  woman I want to give the world to. I see a woman I want to spend my life  with.”

Dorfman was similarly effusive about her betrothed, telling Atlanta’s  Jezebel magazine that he made her a “believer” in true love, and in the  power of The Bachelorette. “If I had to say one thing [I love most], I  think I love that he genuinely is my best friend,” she said. “He’s the last  person I want to talk to at night, the first person I want to talk to in the  morning. I just want to tell him everything…He’s just my partner through it  all.”
