According to a source that spoke to PEOPLE, “She has been pretty miserable,” and “didn‘t think it was in her best interests to stay with Alex.” The source added that infidelity wasn’t the cause of their breakup but ”whether or not he has cheated doesn’t matter,” because “she won’t tolerate the fear of it in the air between them.”
