From red carpets to reality TV reunions, 2025 has been brutal for some of our favorite celebrity couples. Whether it was a slow drift apart, sudden betrayal, or a quiet mutual decision, these breakups have been trending across headlines, TikTok feeds, and group chats everywhere. Let’s break down the biggest splits of the year so far and what really went down behind the scenes.
Jessica Simpson & Eric Johnson: A Quiet End to a Decade of Love
After more than a decade together, Jessica Simpson and former NFL player Eric Johnson have reportedly separated. The couple began dating in 2010 and tied the knot in a stunning ceremony at the San Ysidro Ranch in 2014. They share three children: Maxwell (11), Ace (10), and Birdie (5)
Although neither Simpson nor Johnson has publicly confirmed the split, several insiders told Radar Online and Us Weekly that the couple had been living separate lives for months. Jessica has been focusing on her fashion brand and her wellness journey, even hinting at transformation in her recent interviews.
Fans began speculating about a breakup earlier this year when Jessica was seen without her wedding ring and Johnson was noticeably absent from her social media posts. One source close to the couple said, “They’ve been drifting for a while. There wasn’t one big fight, more like growing apart as their kids got older.”
Despite the rumors, Jessica has remained silent, clearly signaling that she and Eric are handling the breakup privately for the sake of their children.
Quinta Brunson & Kevin Jay Anik: From Emmy Wins to Irreconcilable Differences
Quinta Brunson shocked fans when she filed for divorce from Kevin Jay Anik in early April 2025, citing irreconcilable differences. The couple married in September 2021 in a private ceremony and have kept their relationship largely out of the public eye.
According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Brunson has asked the court to terminate spousal support and indicated that the couple had no shared children. The split came as a surprise, especially as Brunson has been riding a career high with Abbott Elementary, which continues to sweep award seasons and dominate ratings.
Though Quinta has not publicly commented on the divorce, fans noticed she stopped wearing her wedding ring during her recent red carpet appearances. Some fans speculated that her skyrocketing career demands may have contributed to the separation, though no one has confirmed it.
It’s a reminder that even rising stars with “perfect” careers are juggling real-life struggles behind the scenes.
Ashley & Tyler from Love Is Blind: One of the Messiest Splits of the Year
Reality TV fans were not prepared for the Ashley and Tyler fallout from Love Is Blind Season 6. The couple, who got engaged sight unseen and married in the finale, seemed like they had real chemistry until the reunion aired.
In the reunion episode that premiered in March 2025, Ashley tearfully revealed that Tyler had been “sexting” and messaging other women while they were still engaged and filming post-show updates. Screenshots surfaced on social media shortly after, confirming inappropriate DMs and messages.
Tyler denied any cheating, saying the conversations were “taken out of context,” but the damage was done. Ashley, who quickly became a fan favorite for her emotional vulnerability, has since moved on and embraced her new single status with grace. Her Instagram bio now reads: “Healing, thriving, and drinking iced coffee” — a not-so-subtle dig at her ex.
This split became one of the most talked-about in Love Is Blind history, with fans rallying behind Ashley and even launching memes and TikToks celebrating her “glow-up.”
Jessica Alba & Cash Warren: A Gentle Goodbye After 16 Years
Jessica Alba and Cash Warren shocked fans in early 2025 when they announced their separation after 16 years of marriage. The pair, who met while filming Fantastic Four in 2004 and married in 2008, have three children together: Honor, Haven, and Hayes.
In a rare joint statement released to People, the couple said: “We’ve lovingly and respectfully decided to separate. Our focus will continue to be our children and the beautiful life we’ve built together.”
The breakup appears to be amicable, with no signs of scandal or drama. Sources say Jessica and Cash had grown apart as their professional lives took them in different directions. Jessica is focusing on her lifestyle brand, The Honest Company, and Cash is working as a film producer and entrepreneur.
Alba’s social media presence has shifted to focus more on self-care, motherhood, and entrepreneurship. While fans are sad to see this Hollywood power couple split, many respect how they’ve handled the situation with maturity and class.
Zoë Kravitz & Channing Tatum: A Stylish Split That Still Surprised Fans
Zoë Kravitz and Channing Tatum were the couple we didn’t see coming and the one many hoped would last. After meeting on the set of Kravitz’s directorial debut Pussy Island in 2021, the two kept their relationship low-key but stylish, often photographed biking around NYC or supporting each other’s projects.
Rumors of an engagement swirled in late 2023, but by early 2025, multiple outlets including Entertainment Tonight and E! News confirmed they had quietly split. Though the couple hasn’t given a reason, sources close to them say their busy schedules and different lifestyles may have contributed.
“They still have a lot of love and respect for each other,” one insider shared. “But they realized they were better off as friends.”
Neither Zoë nor Channing has commented publicly, but the Instagram unfollowing did not go unnoticed by fans. A classic 2025 breakup move.
Final Thoughts
In a year filled with uncertainty and change, it’s clear that love isn’t always forever, even for the rich and famous. Whether it’s the emotional fallout of reality TV, the quiet end of long-term marriages, or just the complexities of fame, these splits remind us that relationships take work and sometimes, they just run their course.
While the breakups may break our hearts (and our timelines), we’ll always have the red carpet photos, throwback couple interviews, and of course… the memes.
Stay tuned and keep the tissues (and popcorn) ready.
