Burch’s spokesperson called the breakup “amicable,” saying that “geography” was to blame. (Armstrong is based in Texas.) The two were first reported together in March – though, by then, the seven-time Tour de France champ had been quietly dating Burch for months, according to sources. As one source told PEOPLE at the time: “I can’t say whether it’s long-term, but they’re having a great time.” • Reporting by ALICIA DENNIS and ALYSSA SHELASKY Who’s turning 40?
