Model Lira Mercer has come forward to confirm new speculation and rumors about another split from rap star fiancé Rick Ross going down.

According to Lira, she is once again on the open market despite still having strong feelings for Ricky Rozay.

“We just decided to go our separate ways. I’m 22 and this was my first time in love and I put it out there. I’m still in love with him, but some things don’t go as you would like them to go – I’m fresh out of a breakup, so I’m not looking or worried about anybody right now. There were other things going on, so we parted.” (Global Grind)

Lira also stood behind her image and cleared up a big perception of herself.

“Biggest misconception about me is that I’m a ho, because I’m not. I’m judged by my looks and just because I look a certain way, just because I’m dressed sexy, doesn’t mean that’s only what I’m about. The photos you see online are just a small part of my lifestyle. I’m not in lingerie and sexy dresses 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.” (Global Grind)

Asked about what went down during the two-week split, Ricky Rozay opted out of providing any details or context in November.

AP: There have been talks of your broken engagement with Lira Galore. Can you clear that up? Ross: This is what I’m going to clear up: I’m happy and I’m living. That’s what it is. Rozay is so happy. That’s what life is about, being happy. (AP)

Reports last fall claimed the celebrity couple finally met up days after initially texting one another following their split.

The Boss dropped strong hints he and his ex were reuniting — posting pics of them all hugged up — but we’ve learned it’s 100% back on. We know Lira hopped on a plane to go meet Rick Wednesday. We’re told they’ve been texting non-stop for the last week … and finally decided to get back together. Of course, they just ended things Halloween weekend. (TMZ)
