The tungsten-throwing lovebirds met in an online darts league and fell in love over their love for KFC, but now they have brought their time together to an end.
During the latest episode of the podcast Darts Draait Door, presenter Damian Vlottes let slip that Van de Voort knew their relationship had come to a close.
Vlottes said: "They broke up — you told me.'
To which Van de Voort replied: "True, yes. But what else do you want me to say about it?

"I don't work for a gossip magazine. I don't know the exact reason either. She told me and I didn't ask why.'
SunSport has approached both Sherrock and Menzies' camps for comment.
The news comes after Sherrock made her return to television on Sunday at the Women's World Matchplay.
Menzies was nowhere to be seen in the crowd as 'The Queen of the Palace' took to the stage at Winter Gardens.

The Scot is normally watching on for all of Sherrock's matches but wasn't present for her return despite being in Blackpool himself for the Men's World Matchplay earlier in week.
Sherrock reached the final, ultimately losing to Lisa Ashton, 54, after a string of eight missed darts at double.
Darts star Cameron Menzies has nightmare as he busts with incredible 180 and is left with head in hands
Meanwhile Menzies lost 10-2 to Danny Noppert in round one of the men's matchplay, exiting with the worst average (81.35) of the competition after busting with a 180.
Menzies and Sherrock used to practice together at home, with Menzies admitting she would often get the better of him.
He previously told Sky Sports: "We enjoy our practice together and she is a very class player.
"She has done well for darts in general and is banging in 90 averages and 100 averages, the same as a lot of women.
"I'm quite lucky I've got a very good partner who can play darts.
"It's good in the house unless she beats me and I've got to make the food. I don't like it when she beats me.
"I will support her left, right and centre. I am her biggest fan.
"I might be a bit strict, but I know how good she is. I've known her for a very long time and I know she is very, very good.
"She's taken me places I would never have experienced because of darts, so I'm a very lucky person."
The pair had met while playing in an online darts league, competing in a doubles team.
Following their initial online encounter, Menzies revealed that "It started off with a KFC''.
He said: 'I had known Fallon for years in darts and played doubles with her years ago.
''We met in an online league in Southampton.
''The rest is history as they say. It started off with a KFC.''
Former plumber Menzies, who fixed a sink on the day of his world championship appearance, was also a brilliant father figure to Fallon's son Rory from another relationship.
Sherrock was dubbed the 'Queen of the Palace' after becoming first woman to win at the World Championship back in 2019, ultimately reaching the third round.
The 31-year-old announced last month that she is taking a year-long break from darts after battling with health issues.
She said: "I just need to sort myself out.
"I need to get myself well again and then once I do, the sky is the limit because I know I can do it and I know how many hours I've got to put in, what standard I've got to play. So I can do it, I just need the energy for it first."
