The Biggest Celebrity Breakups of 2023
The Biggest Celebrity Breakups of 2023 So Far
We're more than halfway through 2023 and we've witnessed a ton of shocking (and not-so-shocking) breakups among celebrity couples. The year started off with the surprising news of longtime pair Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott (who share two kids) parting ways. Following that, Reese Witherspoon and Jim Toth shocked the world in March when they announced their "difficult decision to divorce" after nearly 12 years of marriage.
While some celebrity couples this year decided to amicably separate, like AJ McLean and wife Rochelle DeAnna McLean and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Sophie Trudeau, other splits have played out quite messily in the news. Perhaps most notable is the explosive breakup of "Vanderpump Rules" stars Tom Sandoval and Ariana Madix, plus the fallout that followed after the former's cheating affair with their costar Raquel Leviss; the entire debacle was dubbed "Scandoval." Next to them is Avril Lavigne and Mod Sun, as the latter's rep informed POPSUGAR on Feb. 21 that their split was "news to him" because they were "together and engaged as of three days ago when Mod left for tour." Shortly after they broke up, Lavigne was linked to Tyga.
There have been a few other unexpected celebrity breakups in 2023 as well. On July 17, People reported that Ariana Grande and her husband, Dalton Gomez, had separated earlier this year after two years of marriage. That same day, news broke about Sofía Vergara and Joe Manganiello divorcing after seven years of marriage. And in August, Sam Asghari filed for divorce from Britney Spears after 14 months of marriage. In September, Joe Jonas filed for divorce from Sophie Turner after four years of marriage, and in October, Jodie Turner-Smith also filed for divorce from Joshua Jackson after four years of marriage. But they aren't the only stars who've called it quits this year.
