Courteney Cox and Johnny McDaid call off the engagement!

Los Angeles - Courteney Cox and Johnny McDaid have reportedly called off their engagement.

The former Friends actress and the Snow Patrol rocker - who got engaged in June 2014 after a whirlwind six month romance - are believed to have secretly split one month ago.

HollywoodLife.com first reported the news, with a source saying: "He just decided he wanted to separate. He hasn't really given a reason, but mainly said he wants to focus on his music and can't take the fighting.

"Courteney is extremely upset about it. She truly is just miserable about it."

TMZ added that Johnny, 39, moved out of 51-year-old Courteney's Malibu home before Thanksgiving and flew home to Northern Ireland.

Both publications revealed the pair had been in therapy together but it failed to save their relationship.

Courteney was previously married to David Arquette - the father of her daughter Coco - for 11 years and she and Johnny were introduced by mutual pal Ed Sheeran.

Ed previously spoke about how happy he was for them and revealed the relationship was progressing quickly.

He said: "I'm not sure that it's public knowledge, so maybe I shouldn't have said anything - but, yes, they're already living together.

"Things are moving fast. He moved in and, judging by the last time I saw them, they couldn't be happier."
