Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott and his fiancée Sarah Jane Ramos have called off their engagement, ending a relationship that produced two daughters, a viral golf course proposal, and a destination wedding planned for the Amalfi Coast of Italy. According to TMZ Sports, who broke the story on March 7, 2026, the split happened just one month before they were supposed to say their vows.
This is not just a celebrity gossip story. This is the story of two real people, two very young children, a canceled wedding, and what happens when a relationship that looked picture perfect in public falls apart in private. There is a lot to unpack here, and the people searching for answers deserve more than a headline.
The Breakup: What Actually Happened
The relationship had been rocky behind the scenes for months, but things came to a head with a blowup argument at their joint bachelor and bachelorette parties in the Bahamas, and Sarah Jane called it off.
That one sentence contains a lot. The Bahamas trip was supposed to be a celebration, a send-off before the biggest day of their lives. Instead, it became the breaking point of a relationship that had been quietly fracturing for months before the public had any idea.
The tropical celebration drew Prescott’s Cowboys circle including Jeanne Grier, wife of backup QB Will Grier, and Brandi Yvonne, girlfriend of safety Juanyeh Ajah Thomas. Friends, teammates, people who showed up to celebrate a wedding that would now never happen.
What makes this even harder to process is what was being said publicly in the days before it all collapsed. Just days before the news broke, Ramos shared several snaps from her bachelorette party with her closest friends, captioning the post: “I truly believe you can get through anything in life as long as you have really great friends. I love these girls so much.” Before that, on Feb. 23, she said she “can’t wait to marry the love of my life” at their destination wedding in Italy. Those posts have since been deleted.
When someone deletes those posts, they are telling a story without saying a single word.
The stakes of this breakup go far beyond a cancelled wedding. Prescott and Ramos have two young children together, a 2-year-old and a baby who is nearly 10 months old. TMZ reports that the relationship is beyond repair and that the focus going forward will be entirely on co-parenting their kids.
Neither Dak Prescott nor Sarah Jane Ramos has made a public statement as of this writing. The Dallas Cowboys organization has also remained silent.
How Dak Prescott and Sarah Jane Ramos Got Together
To understand why this breakup feels so jarring, you need to understand how this relationship unfolded in front of everyone.
Prescott and Ramos went public with their relationship in September 2023 after Ramos attended a Cowboys game against the New York Giants and posted a photo of them hugging, captioned with Prescott’s jersey number. That was the signal. No announcement, no interview. Just a photo, a jersey number, and the internet doing the rest.
A few weeks later she celebrated her 30th birthday with Prescott by her side. He commented on her birthday post: “So much to Love in this post! Welcome to 30 club my love.”
By late November 2023, the couple announced they were expecting their first child together. The relationship had moved fast, and people were watching closely.
He knew Ramos was an avid golfer, so he hid the engagement ring inside a fake golf ball. They went out to play together and he dropped it on the green. She almost hit it with her club. “I told her that we had a lifetime to golf,” Prescott told Sports Illustrated. “I had the ring in a fake golf ball. I dropped it. She almost hit it. I’m just glad she said yeah. Super, super blessed and happy.” The ring itself was custom-made by Jason of Beverly Hills, featuring a 10-carat emerald-cut diamond set on an 18-karat yellow gold band between two tapered baguette diamonds, with an estimated value of around one million dollars.
Their daughter wore a onesie that read “Hi Mommy, Daddy has a question for you.” That proposal story spread everywhere because it felt real and thoughtful, not staged for a camera crew.
With the breakup occurring in March 2026, the couple was engaged for one year and five months
Who Is Sarah Jane Ramos? More Than Just a Cowboys WAG
This is the question a lot of people are asking right now, and it deserves a real answer.
Sarah Jane Ramos was born on November 17, 1993, in Tampa Bay, Florida, and she has never let anyone forget where she came from. Her own website describes her as “Tampa-born and proud, a fifth-generation native with deep roots and big ambitions.”
She is not a reality television personality who stumbled into a relationship with a famous athlete. She built a legitimate career before Prescott ever entered the picture.
After graduating from Florida State University, where she studied criminalistics and criminal science, she entered the hospitality industry as a bartender at Marriott Hotels. From there she pivoted into the wine and spirits world, joining Southern Glazer’s Wine and Spirits in 2017 as an on-premise sales consultant. Southern Glazer’s is the largest wine and spirits distributor in the United States.
She later worked as a specialist for Moet Hennessy and then Diageo before returning to Southern Glazer’s, advancing to the role of distribution manager for the Tampa Bay region.
She is a certified wine and spirits specialist. She also founded her own tequila brand called Volteo, a spirit inspired by overcoming adversity and transcending limitations. The name loosely translates to “to turn things around” from Spanish. That detail sits differently today than it would have a week ago.
She is an avid golfer who has been playing since age eight. She describes the course as her sanctuary. She is a lifelong Tampa Bay Lightning fan. She volunteers on the food and beverage committee for a charity event supporting Tampa’s Children’s Cancer Center.
Her parents are Paul and Jane Ramos. She is the eldest of three daughters. Her younger sisters are Grace and Emily. Her Instagram bio includes the Italian, Cuban, and British flags, reflecting the mixed heritage her family carries.
Sarah Jane had been growing her public presence significantly in the months leading up to the wedding, sharing lifestyle content, family moments with MJ and Aurora, and pre-wedding celebrations right up until the moment everything changed. The contrast between the joy she was publicly projecting and the private reality that was unfolding is a big part of why this story has resonated so widely.
Dak Prescott’s Past Relationships: Context Worth Understanding
Context matters here, because this is not the first time Prescott has been through a high-profile relationship that ended.
The quarterback dated Ireland Borba in 2019, Natalie Buffett from 2020 to 2022, Jadyn Jannasch in early 2023, and then his relationship with Ramos, which began in 2023. Buffett and Prescott started dating in 2020, were commonly spotted together at training camp and games, then broke up in 2022. They were last seen in public together at the 2022 NFL Honors ceremony.
Prescott is not someone who puts his personal life on the table for media consumption, and given the level of scrutiny that comes with being the Cowboys quarterback, that privacy is completely understandable. But it does mean that when things go wrong, the public is often left piecing together what happened from Instagram deletions and TMZ reports.
The relationship with Ramos was different in one major way: they had children together. The stakes were not just personal. They were permanent.
Two Daughters at the Center of Everything

This is the part of this story that deserves the most care and attention.
Their first daughter, Margaret Jane “MJ” Rose Prescott, arrived February 22, 2024. Aurora Rayne followed May 22, 2025, completing their family of four. Two daughters. One is two years old. One is not yet a year old.
Prescott said about fatherhood: “I’m blessed. I’m blessed to have the opportunity to raise two girls alongside my fiancée. To have a beautiful family, healthy family. For me, it’s just about being grateful and not taking a moment for granted when I’m with them. But, I’ve been through things in my life that I don’t necessarily think fatherhood just showed me something new. I understand the love my mom had for me, in a different way now that I have kids.”
That quote was not from a press release. That was a man talking about what it felt like to build something he had clearly wanted. The weight of those words, and the contrast with where things stand today, is not lost on anyone paying attention.
What comes next is the real story that matters. Two daughters who deserve to be raised by two parents who put them first. A co-parenting relationship that will require both people to bring their best even when things are hard.
The Italy Wedding That Will Not Happen
The couple had planned a destination ceremony along Italy’s stunning Amalfi Coast for April 2026, three years after going public.
Destination weddings do not come together overnight. They take months of planning, vendor deposits, venue reservations, travel arrangements for guests, rehearsal dinner bookings, all of it now undone.
Just a few weeks ago, Ramos said she “can’t wait to marry the love of my life” in Italy. That social media post has been deleted.
There is something particularly painful about a canceled destination wedding. It is not just two people calling off an engagement. It is an entire celebration, months of anticipation, dozens of people who built their spring travel plans around a date in April, all of it erased in the aftermath of an argument in the Bahamas.
What This Means for Dak Prescott Going Into the 2026 NFL Season
Prescott is 32 years old. He is the starting quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys and one of the highest-paid players in the NFL, having signed a four-year, $240 million contract extension in 2024.
The news comes amid Prescott’s ongoing career with the Cowboys, where he recently set the franchise record for most passing yards in November 2025. The Cowboys missed the playoffs, and the criticism of his ability to deliver in high-stakes moments has followed him throughout his career in Dallas.
For now, Prescott is dealing with a major life change away from football, one that shifts his immediate focus from wedding plans to parenting and personal stability as he prepares for the 2026 NFL season. Prescott has consistently been one of the NFL’s most productive quarterbacks when healthy, and he is expected to remain the cornerstone of the Cowboys’ offense moving forward.
Prescott has been through genuine hardship before. He lost his mother to colon cancer when he was in college. He lost his brother Jace to suicide. He has spoken openly about mental health and how he processes grief and adversity. None of that makes this easier, but it does suggest a person who has had to learn, over and over again, how to keep moving when things fall apart. The Cowboys need that version of Dak Prescott in 2026. His daughters need that version of their father.
Infidelity Rumors: What Has and Has Not Been Confirmed
It would be irresponsible to write this article without acknowledging that unconfirmed rumors about infidelity have been circulating in Dallas area gossip circles since the news broke. There had been rumors spreading in the Dallas area about infidelity, but those have never been confirmed.
That is as far as confirmed reporting goes. Neither TMZ nor any credible outlet has verified specific claims about what caused the blowup argument in the Bahamas beyond the fact that an argument happened and Sarah Jane called off the wedding. Anyone telling you they know exactly what was said in the Bahamas is speculating, not reporting.
What we know for certain is what TMZ reported: the relationship had been rocky for months, something came to a head in the Bahamas, and Sarah Jane ended the engagement.
Sarah Jane Called It Off: Why That Detail Matters
It was Sarah Jane who ended the engagement. That detail is not a minor footnote.
In a situation where the natural public instinct is to assign blame, the fact that she made the call tells us that she reached a threshold and decided she was done. Whatever was happening behind the scenes during those months of rocky patches, it was serious enough that she looked at a wedding that was 30 days away and decided that getting on that plane to Italy was not something she was willing to do.
That takes courage. It also takes clarity. Walking away from a relationship with two children under the age of two, a year and a half engagement, a million dollar ring, and an Italy wedding on the calendar is not something a person does lightly. Whatever pushed her to that decision, she made it.
Ramos only has one post from 2026 remaining on her Instagram, uploaded in February. “Happy 2nd Birthday to our beautiful first born baby who is no longer a baby. I thank God everyday for you and the joy you bring to us and everyone that knows you. The brightest light in every room with the biggest personality. You are the coolest little girl and we love you more than anything, Margaret Jane,” she captioned a birthday tribute to her toddler.
That birthday post is the only thing she left up. The love for her daughter. Everything else is gone.
The Main Thing on Dak Prescott and Sarah Jane Ramos
The Dak Prescott and Sarah Jane Ramos breakup is trending because he is one of the most famous quarterbacks in the NFL and their canceled Italy wedding is a dramatic story. But underneath the trending searches and the deleted Instagram posts, this is a story about something that happens to real people all the time.
Two people who genuinely seemed to love each other, who built a family together, who told the world they were ready to make a lifetime commitment, discovered that something was broken before they made it to the altar. It is painful and complicated, and it does not resolve neatly.
What comes next is what actually matters. Two daughters who deserve to be raised by two parents who put them first. A co-parenting relationship that will require both people to be their best selves even when things are hard. A quarterback who now carries both the weight of Dallas Cowboys expectations and a completely restructured personal life into what may be one of the most important seasons of his career.
And a woman who walked away from a million dollar ring, an Italy wedding, and a relationship the world had already decided was a fairy tale, because she knew it was the right thing to do for herself.
That part of the story does not trend as easily. But it is the part worth paying attention to.
