Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo have called it quits, reps for each confirm to PEOPLE.

"They have amicably split but remain good friends who still greatly care for one another," Minnillo's rep tells PEOPLE of the couple, who began dating in 2006.

The split comes after a rash of breakup rumors and reports, which were shot down. Earlier this month Minnillo told PEOPLE that she and Lachey were "very much still on."

A source says Minnillo, 28, and Lachey, 35, are "still friends. It was the right thing for both of them to do."

I wonder if Nick broke up with her, considering her comment that they were 'very much still on' just a couple of weeks ago. In any case, I saw this coming. They lasted longer than I expected but same result in the long run.

Wasn't she just hinting about engagement rings to a reporter not long ago? I think it was in US?

Not surprised...

I've seen this coming for a long time. She was a rebound girl IMPO. It lasted much longer than I expected. But a break up is always sad.

geez will Lachey EVER make it work?! he seems so Mario Lopez to me, in that he may get very bored, very fast.

I never liked them as a couple. Vanessa seems very...dirty to me, and I just cannot warm up to her.

The most shocking thing about this story to me was learning that Nick is 35!

I still miss Nick and Jessica. They seemed like a good couple IMO.

yea, you're right. i guess i just meant he has that arrogant swag like Lopez, like he may never be satisfied with one woman for life.
