Jennifer Lawrence and her boyfriend Darren Aronofsky have called it quits after a year of dating, a source told E! News. While they broke up last month, it was amicable and they are still friends. The actress, who fell in love with the director while making the movie Mother!, spoke about their romance on The Hollywood Reporter’s Awards Chatter podcast last week.

“I had a crush on him when he pitched to me, and that was a year before we started rehearsing. But he was a professional, which only made it worse for me,” she said, adding, “We just kind of formed a friendship. He knew how I felt; he never told me how he felt. I mean, I assumed. And then friendship turned into a partnership once we started working. And when the movie was done, I was like, ‘Alright, you’re my boyfriend.’” Their last public appearance together was at the Governors Awards in Los Angeles on November 11. Entertainment Tonight had first reported the news on Wednesday.
