Travis Mills wrote an essay on Instagram explaining why he and Madelaine Petsch are no longer boyfriend and girlfriend.
Riverdale star Madelaine Petsch and 'Stupid Boy' rapper Travis Mills have broken up after three years of dating.
Rumours that Madelaine Petsch and Travis Mills had split surfaced earlier this week and now Travis has confirmed them in a lengthy Instagram post. Travis opened the post by stating: "Been writing, and re-writing this the last few days. I've had to accept there’s no possible way to capture a love of this scale or its significance to me, in a few paragraphs."

He added: "That said, I'll try, because so many of you supported us over the years like a family would."
Travis explained: "What’s ironic about my most public relationship is that behind the scenes it was the most non-superficial & grounding experience in my life. While it pains me our journey has come to a close, I mean it when I say I’m so incredibly grateful to have shared the last three years with someone as compassionate, smart & wonderful as Madelaine."
He continued: "I wish our lives really looked like a Google image search of our names. In reality we're ambitious & hard-working individuals, dealing with rejection, in different states/countries, wondering what the next best move is, trying to see friends/family, take care of our dogs, answering an ocean of e-mails, balancing REAL LIFE & doing it all while being separated by it."
Travis then wrote: "There's a ton of privilege being able to do what we do, but there’s a mountain of challenges. That said we were in it together. It challenged me, kept me honest, made me more compassionate, and helped me do some very necessary growing up. The highest highs were made better, the lowest lows were liveable, because of her. I’ve learned so much about myself & life from that unconditional love and support."
He ended the post writing: "While I'm holding back tears I’m excited to see what you do next. I’ll always have your back. Trying to capture the gratitude, love & pain in a few paragraphs, is impossible. I’m not deleting any of our images, I regret nothing. It’s a sad world when sites, blogs, & media try to profit off our pain. Please be respectful. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the support."
Following the split, Madelaine has deleted many of her pictures with Travis from her Instagram page. As it stands, she is yet to publicly comment on the breakup.
