Michael Sam's six-month engagement to long-term boyfriend Vito Cammisano is over [1], according to reports. "They've been rocky for months," a source reportedly told Us Weekly. News about their split emerged less than one week after the Supreme Court's historic ruling about gay marriage [2].

The duo first connected at University of Missouri, where Michael was a star football player. Dating since 2011, Vito remained private about their relationship before Michael's emotional coming-out story [3] grabbed headlines in February 2014. However, the couple went public with their love when Michael made history by becoming the NFL's first openly gay player [4] that May.

Michael was later cut from the St. Louis Rams, but he has remained in the public eye, receiving the Arthur Ashe Courage Award [5] at the 2014 ESPYs last July and later putting his athleticism to good use on Dancing With the Stars [6] in 2015. Vito was by Michael's side for the competition, showing support for his fiancé from the audience.
