Deion Sanders and Tracey Edmonds have ended their engagement, the couple announced on Instagram Sunday night.
周日晚上，戴恩·桑德斯和特蕾西·埃德蒙茲在Instagram上宣布解除婚約。

"To EVERYONE who has been there for us, supported us, and shown us love...We have mutually decided that it is best for us to move forward in life AS FRIENDS and have made this decision with love in our hearts, respect for each other, and appreciation for the time we've shared together," Edmonds and Sanders wrote in a joint statement on her Instagram page.
“感謝所有支持我們、支持我們、愛我們的人……埃德蒙茲和桑德斯在她的Instagram頁面上發(fā)表聯(lián)合聲明說:“我們都認為，以朋友的身份繼續(xù)生活對我們來說是最好的，我們懷著心中的愛、對彼此的尊重和對我們共同度過的時光的感激做出了這個決定。”

"Please keep us in your prayers as we go through this transition. Thank you for being there for us ALL THESE YEARS! We love you and appreciate you SO MUCH!" she concluded, adding praying hands and a red heart emoji.
“在我們度過這段過渡時期，請為我們祈禱。謝謝您這么多年來一直支持著我們!我們愛你，非常感謝你!”她總結(jié)道，并加上了祈禱的手和紅心的表情符號。

Sanders responded in the comments section, adding, "Love u Tracey and You've been a true blessing to me. I appreciate the times we've shared and they laughs we've had. You are an amazing woman and a tremendous mother. God bless u with every endeavor and every step u take. You are HER. Tracey-Mack !!!"
桑德斯在評論區(qū)回應(yīng)道:“愛你的特蕾西，你一直是我真正的祝福。我很感激我們一起度過的時光和我們一起歡笑的時光。你是一個了不起的女人，一個了不起的母親。愿上帝保佑你的每一次努力和你走過的每一步。你是她。Tracey-Mack ! !”

Sanders and Edmonds, both 56, met at a movie premiere party in 2012 for a film Edmonds had produced. They only chatted briefly during their initial meeting, but Sanders was so taken with the producer that he asked a friend to get her business card that night.
桑德斯和埃德蒙茲都是56歲，他們是在2012年埃德蒙茲制作的一部電影的首映派對上認識的。他們在初次見面時只聊了一會兒，但桑德斯被這位制片人深深吸引，當晚他讓一個朋友拿了她的名片。

A few months later, the football coach reached out to Edmonds to set up a meeting where they discussed his vision for a reality series. "I started off thinking I was just going to produce [Deion’s Family Playbook]," Edmonds explained, "But as I started working with Deion on the show, we grew quite fond of each other and ended up dating."
幾個月后，這位足球教練找到埃德蒙茲，安排了一次會面，討論他對真人秀系列節(jié)目的看法。埃德蒙茲解釋說:“一開始我只是想制作Deion的《家庭劇本》，但當我開始和Deion一起工作時，我們變得非常喜歡對方，最后開始約會。”

The couple navigated being long-distance throughout their relationship. During a joint interview with PEOPLE, Sanders, who has been married twice before, reasoned that he and Edmonds are "at the age and stage where I don't think neither of us needs a lot.”
這對夫婦在他們的關(guān)系中一直保持著異地戀。在接受《人物》雜志的聯(lián)合采訪時，曾結(jié)過兩次婚的桑德斯解釋說，他和埃德蒙茲“處在我認為我們都不需要太多的年齡和階段。”

The retired athlete shared that he and Edmonds don’t regularly call or text throughout the day in order to give each other the space to build their respective careers.
這位退役運動員分享說，他和埃德蒙茲每天都不經(jīng)常打電話或發(fā)短信，以便給對方空間來建立各自的事業(yè)。

“Tracey is a go-getter; she is that. I get up early, and she knows I'm up working out and I'm ready to go get it,” Sanders added. “It's a blessing, but we understand each other because we're busy in our own right.”
“特蕾西是個能干的人;她就是那樣。我起得很早，她知道我在鍛煉，我已經(jīng)準備好了。”桑德斯補充道。“這是一種祝福，但我們彼此理解，因為我們都在忙著自己的事情。”
