Model Alison Bowles and former MLB player Adeiny Hechavarría are going their separate ways after five years together.
The longtime couple, who got engaged in 2019 after two years of dating, have split, TMZ Sports reported Tuesday. Bowles told the outlet they rarely saw each other with their respective careers, which factored into the breakup.
“We have nothing but love and respect for each other and I wish him future success in his career,” she said in a statement.

His last stint in the league was with the Braves in 2020 before signing with the Chiba Lotte Marines later that year.
“I haven’t seen him play in real life since the Braves playoffs in 2019, and I think I saw one game in spring training in 2020,” Bowles told The Post at the end of 2021.
“It is really sad, especially because with his career, it doesn’t last forever and I want to be part of it, but with COVID, I haven’t been able to do that.”
Bowles did not immediately return The Post’s request for comment.
