Earlier this week, news broke out that actress Regina King and her boyfriend, Malcolm Jamal Warner, have called it quits. 

Now, the couple is speaking out (well not really)-- just telling fans they shouldn't always believe everything they read.

According to a USweekly insider:

"He said he wasn't feeling it anymore," the insider says. The two were notoriously tight lipped about their relationship while they were together.

He then reportedly asked King and her son Ian Alexander Jr. to immediately leave his Hollywood home because the relationship was over.

Here's what Jamal had to say in response to upset fan who called him out on Twitter about split:

However, the rumors might be true because she did say "Life Happens".... which makes you want to "read between the lines." And she did not give specific details or deny the rumors.

Plus, both King and Warner were child stars on NBC in the 1980s when Warner starred on "The Cosby Show" and King was on "227." They had been friends since, and started dating quietly in 2011

So what's your take on this story? Are they trying to sugarcoat something that actually happened?
