Steven Avery has apparently broken up with his fiancee, just a few days after they became engaged.

It was revealed in late September that Avery was engaged to Lynn Hartman, a 53-year-old Las Vegas woman who fell in love with him while watching Making a Murderer. Now, it looks like the bloom is already off the rose.

Avery's friend, Sandra Greenman, posted on Facebook to spread the word that Avery and Hartman had broken up.

"I have a statement that I need passed around to groups," Greenman wrote, via TheWrap. "Steve called me two times tonight and wants everyone to know that Lynn and him are done. She has been in this relationship for money and publicity. His eyes are finally opened!!! Lynn received at least 5000.00 dollars from Dr Phil, and he thinks more. She got another 1000.00 for doing other shows. She also wanted to be on as many as possible. His words-she is a golddigger. He wants someone to contact Dr Phil before Mon. show annd (sic) let him know she was only in the relationship for money. I checked and doublechecked with him to make very sure he wanted this put on and he said very much so."

Hartman said in a People interview that Avery became a "support system" for her as she was dealing with her divorce, adding that she pictured traveling the countryside in a motor home together.

Others saw things differently. One of the administrators on the Avery Dassey Facebook group told TheWrap that Hartman has "been a problem since the beginning ... and flip flops faster than anyone I've seen." They added, "She started this media frenzy, and she's gotten money from all these different outlets," the admin added. "But she has blocked his calls and she claims on 'Dr. Phil' that he's not calling her."
