Well, here is an overview of those from around the world…
January
Kaia Gerber a Austin Butler
They looked idyllic together, like a pretty picture. But in private, it really creaked. After months of speculation about a breakup, at the beginning of the year TMZ finally reported that model Kaia Gerber (24) and actor Austin Butler (34) had broken up.
They dated for three years and were actually supposed to break up at the end of 2024. The reason was prosaic – their relationship had “simply come to an end”. Apparently, it had nothing to do with the fact that there was a big age gap between them.

Jessica Alba a Cash Warren
A couple that was considered one of the most stable couples in Hollywood. Their split was rather surprising as they had been together for 16 years and had three children.
Over the years, Jessica and Cash have been seen as a couple who successfully balance Hollywood and family life. Alba often talked about how important privacy and common family values ​​are to them.
They were first seen in public without their wedding rings, which in the world of show business is a sure sign that it’s over. Only later did the media bring news that it was over between them. During the year, Jessica managed to find a new partner and seems to be happy with him.

Jessica has previously often referred to her husband as a “soul mate” and a great supporter.
He was her great support during her struggle with addictions, especially alcohol. They raised three children together and seemed like a very strong and stable couple. It is not known what was the reason for their separation.

February
Lily Allen a David Harbour
One of the top breakups of the year was the breakup of the marriage of British singer Lily Allen (40) and actor David Harbor (50). They were married for four years and together they took care of the singer’s two children from a previous relationship.
Their breakup was rather surprising, but as they say – “dirty laundry” began to be aired in public only after a few months, when Lily poured her heart out and released her post-breakup album.

In it, she laid all her cards on the table, and although she was a little vague, it was clear that the main reason for their breakup was Harbour’s infidelity. However, she also revealed many more spicy details from their relationship.
June
Dakota Johnson a Chris Martin
When they started dating, many predicted a quick end for them. Instead, actress Dakota Johnson (36) and singer Chris Martin (48) have been together for eight beautiful years. But as it happens, even their love did not overcome the age difference.
However, it was not their first breakup, but it seems that in this case it is already final. Although some time ago it was said that they were supposed to get engaged.
As reported by various sources close to this couple, the main reasons for the breakup were different ideas about starting a family and children, age difference and personal growth. Although neither of them has officially commented on it.

Katy Perry a Orlando Bloom
There have been reports of a crisis between the singer and the actor for some time. Shortly after Katy Perry (41) went on her space trip, the truth about their broken relationship also came out. Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom (48) started dating in 2015 and although they broke up for a while two years later, they finally found their way back together.
The result was an engagement and the birth of their only daughter together, Daisy. But their happiness did not last forever. The fact that the wedding was postponed several times also testified to the fact that something is wrong with the church order.

Their breakup came after nearly ten years together, with sources citing stress and incompatible relationship dynamics. However, both of them expressed their love and respect for each other, while the stability of the family is the first priority for them. In the meantime, Katy found a new love, which was quite surprising. Her new chosen one is Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and she doesn’t hide it at all.
Marion Cotillard to Guillaume Canet
Another long-term Hollywood marriage also went bankrupt this year. Actress Marion Cotillard (50) announced that after almost 18 years of life together and two children, she is separating from her husband.
This decision should have been made by mutual agreement. Although they did not say the reason, their split came after years of speculation. Even years ago, there were rumors that Marion fell in love with fellow actor Brad Pitt while filming the movie Allies, which she vehemently denied.

Nicole Kidman a Keith Urban
You could say that in their case it was the breakup of the year. Nicole Kidman (58) and Keith Urban (58) were among the most beautiful and stable couples. They were together for 19 beautiful years and had two daughters. More than once, they exchanged loving gestures and affections on the red carpet.
It was even more of a shock when news broke that it was over between them. But after a few days, it became clear that things took a turn for the worse and Nicole, although she was shocked and did not expect it, filed for divorce.

Tom Cruise to Ana de Armas
The darling of Hollywood has already failed another relationship. We are talking about Tom Cruise (63), who dated the young and attractive actress Ana de Armas (37) for several months.
And although he tried it on her with gifts and luxury, in the end their relationship, marked by a huge age difference, did not last.
Cruise’s faith, i.e. the Church of Scientist, had to play its role. According to sources, Ana could not stand the constant scrutiny and longed for freedom.
