Miley Cyrus and Patrick Schwarzenegger are taking a break from dating for nearly five months.

News of Cyrus and Schwarzenegger's break follows the controversy surrounding Schwarzenegger's spring break trip in Cabo San Lucas back in March.

While he and Cyrus were reportedly still together, Schwarzenegger was photographed in an intimate pose with another woman, E! News reports.

He was later photographed again with another female from Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority which fueled the rumors that he was cheating on Cyrus.

Schwarzenegger later took to Twitter to defend himself.

Check out his tweets below.

E! News sources report Schwarzenegger is "devastated and heartbroken" over causing Cyrus pain. Schwarzenegger is allegedly embarrassed by his actions and has been getting support from his close friends.

"He's had some of his friends around for support, but he's very down and upset. He hasn't cracked a smile or been able to think about anything except Miley. He's so embarrassed and knows he screwed up," says the E! News source.

And while Schwarzenegger is devastated, Cyrus is focused on making music in the studio.

According to People, Cyrus recently posted a photo of herself eating healthy in the recording studio. She also posted several photos in honor of 4/20, the day that many people celebrate and smoke marijuana.

People also claims that Cyrus and Schwarzenegger's relationship is in fact over and not on break.

A People source claims that the two are at two different stages of their lives and have different goals.

"They're just in two different places in their lives -- he's in college and she's focused on her music and career," says the source.
