All is not well in Hollywood, and the celebrity breakups of 2021 show that. So far in 2021, we’ve seen celebrity couples like Shia Labeouf and Margaret Qualley, and Zoë Kravitz and Karl Glusman call it quits. And as we know from past years, there will be more celebrity breakups to come in 2021.
Before we dive into all the couples who have split in the past year, let’s look back at the celebrity couples we lost in 2020. Everyone and their moms knows that 2020 was a dumpster fire, so, as expected, there were a lot of celebrity splits that shook us to our core. Some examples include Demi Lovato and Max Ehrich (who split two months after their engagement); Kelly Clarkson and manager Brandon Blackstock (who are in a legal battle over alleged unpaid commissions); and Kristin Cavallari and Jay Cutler (who split in 2020 after almost seven years of marriage.)
Now that we’re in 2021, we’re sad to report that more celebrity couples have come and gone. From married celebrity couples to matches that we made on reality TV, the biggest celebrity breakups of 2021 is one sad list. Ahead, are the most shocking celebrity splits from the past year so far.
Zayn Malik & Gigi Hadid

Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik are over. A source told People on October 28, 2021, that the couple—who share daughter Khai—split after Zayn allegedly “struck” Gigi’s mother, Yolanda Hadid. “They are not together right now. They are both good parents though,” the insider said. “They co-parent. Yolanda is of course very protective of Gigi. She wants the best for her daughter and grandchild.”
TMZ reported at the time that Yolanda planned to file a police report against Zayn after he physically “struck” her in a fight. “Gigi is solely focused on the best for Khai. She asks for privacy during this time,” a representative for Gigi said at the time.
In a tweet at the time, Zayn confirmed that he and Yolanda had an argument after she “entered” his home with Gigi while he was home alone. “As you all know I am a private person and I very much want to create a safe and private space for my daughter to grow up in,” he wrote. “A place where private family matters aren’t thrown on the world stage for all to poke and pick apart. In an effort to protect that space for her I agreed to not contest claims arising from an argument I had with a family member of a partner’s who entered our home while my partner was away several weeks ago.”
He continued, “This was and still should be a private matter but it seems for now there is divisiveness and despite my efforts to restore us to a peaceful family environment that will allow for me to co-parent my daughter in a manner in which she deserves, this has been ‘leaked’ to the press. I am hopeful though for healing for all involved with the harsh words shared and more importantly I remain vigilant to protect Khai and give her the privacy she deserves.”
Zayn also responded to the claims in a statement to TMZ where he “adamantly” denied that he physically “struck” Yolanda and slammed her “false allegation” about the assault. “I adamantly deny striking Yolanda Hadid and for the sake of my daughter I decline to give any further details and I hope that Yolanda will reconsider her false allegations and move towards healing these family issues in private,” he said.

Katie Thurston and Blake Moynes broke up two months after their engagement aired on the season 17 finale of The Bachelorette. Katie confirmed the split in an Instagram post on October 25, 2021.
“It is with mutual love and respect that we have decided to go our separate ways. We are so grateful for the moments we shared together and the entire journey that has unfolded this year, but we ultimately have concluded that we are not compatible as life partners, and it is the most caring choice for both of us to move forward independently. We ask for kindness and privacy as we both navigate this transition. Both of us will forever want the best for one another and ask you to please support us in our decision,” she captioned a black-and-white photo of her and Blake at the “After the Final Rose” ceremony. Blake posted the same statement on his Instagram.
Days before her split, Katie told Us Weekly that she was “winging” she and Blake lived apart. Katie moved to San Diego, while Blake lives in Canada. His job as a wildlife manager also takes him around the world, including a recent trip to Africa.
“I’m, like, totally winging my life right now,” she said at the time. “I literally leave tomorrow in San Diego at, like, six in the morning.” “The short version is we’re figuring it out,” she continued. “We don’t know. This is very new to us still. I’m just focusing on myself. He’s focusing on him, and if we work doing that, great.”

Dance Moms alum JoJo Siwa has reportedly broken up with Kylie Prew after less than a year together. An insider told E! News on Monday, October 25 that JoJo and her partner “split weeks ago.” JoJo, who stars on Dancing With the Stars season 30, started dating her first girlfriend in January 2021. “After being my best friend for over a year, January 8th 2021, I got to start calling this exceptional human my Girlfriend,” she wrote on social media in February. “Since then I’ve been the happiest I have ever been!” The reality star previously came out as a member of the LGBTQ+ community in a post to her followers earlier that month.
According to a separate source who spoke to The Sun, the pair reportedly broke up after Kylie started to become “jealous” of JoJo’s relationship with her DWTS partner, Jenna Johnson. “They split. Kylie became jealous of the relationship JoJo has fostered with Jenna,” the insider told the site at the time. “JoJo is a mess.” The source went on to suggest that JoJo’s “busy” schedule may have contributed to the breakup, noting, “I think JoJo has always been a workhorse, but having a relationship and trying to keep up with a massive star schedule—it’s a challenge.”
Lala Kent & Randall Emmett

The split came after photos and videos of Randall with two women went viral on Instagram and Twitter. After the viral videos and photos, Lala deleted all posts of her ex from her Instagram. She also liked an Instagram post about him allegedly cheating on her, as well as shared a video on her Instagram Story of her moving into a hotel as Beyoncé’s “Sorry” played in the background with the lyrics: “Now you want to say you’re sorry / Now you want to call me crying / Now you gotta see me wilding / Now I’m the one that’s lying / And I don’t feel bad about it / It’s exactly what you get.” Lala and Randall, who got engaged in 2018, share daughter Ocean.

Season 16 Bachelorette Clare Crawley and Dale Moss are broken up. Us Weekly confirmed on September 28, 2021, that the couple had ended their engagement less than a year after they got back together. “It was best for them to go their separate ways at this time,” a source said. “They will still support each other and have love for each other no matter what.” The split also came after Dale was seen at several events, including a friend’s wedding and his own birthday party, without Clare. “[Dale] didn’t mention why she didn’t go,” the source said. “He was celebrating his friend’s wedding and wasn’t going around telling people about his own personal life.”
Clare and Dale met and got engaged on season 16 of The Bachelorette in 2020. They broke up in January 2021 amid rumors he cheated on her. E! News reported that Dale had cheated on Clare with Eleonora Srugo, a real estate agent in New York City that he knew before her season. (Srugo denied that their relationship was romantic.)
Us Weekly reported in July 2021 that Clare and Dale were back together and engaged again. “They’re still working on some issues they have to overcome but it’s not like they make it known,” an insider said at the time. “They’re more private when it comes to their issues. The good thing is that they’re happy together and enjoying this time as an engaged couple. They love each other very much and care for each other.”
The source continued, “[They are] a much better place than where they were months ago….They have plans to travel this summer. She still has her home in Sacramento. Sacramento will always be home to her and she’ll be in California a lot still since she still takes care of her mom and her sisters live there.”

The split came a year after the birth of their son, X Æ A-Xii Musk. “We are semi-separated but still love each other, see each other frequently and are on great terms,” Musk told Page Six. “It’s mostly that my work at SpaceX and Tesla requires me to be primarily in Texas or traveling overseas and her work is primarily in LA. She’s staying with me now and Baby X is in the adjacent room.”

The source continued, “It was wild while it lasted, and they both really care for each other. But the distance has put a strain on them.”

This isn’t the first time Olivia and Jackson have broken up. In May 2019, Us Weekly reported that Jackson broke up with Olivia after her parents, Lori Loughlin and Mossimo Gianulli, were arrested for their part in the college admissions scandal. “Jackson broke up with Olivia because it was all getting to be too much for him,” a source said at the time. “It wasn’t necessarily affecting his career, but the fact that he couldn’t be seen out in public with Olivia was difficult.” They got back together in August 2019 before their split two years later.
