Mellencamp and Ryan reunited in 2017. They also got engaged in November 2018.
After their reunion in 2017, Mellencamp and Ryan were spotted spending a lot of time with their blended family.
The couple finally broke up in November 2019.
Ryan ended the relationship because “it got exhausting for her to deal with.”
The source added: “There were too many ups and downs and it wasn’t healthy. She just needed to get out and not be in that environment anymore… She cares about John but it was time for her to move on.”

Mellencamp and Ryan Split
Mellencamp took to Instagram to share with followers a painting of a woman. He captioned it: “Pretty Peggy 2019, 55 1/2 x 55 1/2 Mixed Media @acagalleries1932 Binding Wires exhibit.”
Fans took note of the fact that the woman looks strikingly like Meg Ryan. Coincidentally, “Peggy” has been known to be one of Ryan’s nicknames, so a lot of followers believe that the painting depicts Ryan herself.
According to the caption, the painting was on display at ACA Galleries in New York City. From October to December 2019, Mellencamp did have an exhibition at ACA, and there was another artwork there that depicted Ryan as well. It seems Mellencamp includes her in his art a lot and most of the pieces at the exhibition were likely made before the couple split up.
