The Cool for the Summer hitmaker posted a picture of their statement on Instagram, which read: "After almost 6 loving and wonderful years together, we have decided to end our relationship.
"This was an incredibly difficult decision for both of us, but we have realized more than anything that we are better as best friends. We will always be supportive of one another. Thank you to everyone who has offered us kindness and support over the years.
"With only love, Wilmer & Demi (sic)."
The news of their breakup came as a surprise as the brunette beauty never rejected the idea of marriage with her former beau.
Speaking previously about tying the knot with Wilmer, she said: "We've been together this long ... obviously I'm not going anywhere.
"I am very, very in love with him. I think - we will probably wait a little bit longer, but - if he asked tomorrow I would say yes."
