Sue Bird's Black Swimsuit Photo Sent Fans Into A Frenzy

Sue Bird is officially back on the market.

The longtime WNBA star and her girlfriend, Megan Rapinoe, announced this weekend that they have broken up after a decade of dating.

"There really is no smooth or easy way to share this news. After a lot of thought, we've made the decision to separate as a couple," they said in a joint statement.

Bird, one of the top women's basketball players of all-time, is heartbroken.

"We have shared so much of our life, so much of our relationship with you. So that's why we wanted to come on here and share this too," Bird said. "These past 10 years have given us so much and launching this podcast and sharing this space has been one of our favorite things that we've done together."
