16 Celeb Couples That Shocked People When They Broke Up
We recently asked BuzzFeed Community members to share the celeb couple breakups that surprised them the most, and depending on your age, you might feel super nostalgic or shocked that these celebs dated each other in the first place: "Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner. I wouldn't say I was shocked, but more sad. I think he really needs her and still does. It just sucks that he can't also be what SHE needs. I'm glad they can still co-parent and be friends, though." —cupcakekrystle "Chris Pratt and Anna Faris. They seemed so sweet and supportive of each other to the public. Anna's story about showing him her bug collection on a date and his sweet reaction to it was just precious. But found out more about Christ Pratt." —rsmith8235 "Jerry Ferrara and Jamie-Lynn Sigler was an unexpected and awesome couple that I celebrated for being so unexpected and awesome. They met on Entourage and were great together, but they split due to their work schedules. Oh, the what-ifs..." —dukerigali "Helena Bonham Carter and Tim Burton. My childhood died that day." —dizzycloud563 "Courtney Cox and David Arquette." —edgycat84 "Kim and Kanye were so in love for so long and clicked so well when they first met. I mean, by the time they broke up, I wasn't too shocked because he seemed totally wild. But part of me thought and hoped that all the stuff he was doing was just for media attention, and that he was mostly normal at home with his friends and family. So, I don't know, their divorce made me sad for them. And to have so many kids just breaks my heart a little." —furryship428 "Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone." —kaliiiiiuchiisssssfannnn "I was sad when Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter split. They worked together on Dexter. As someone who thinks their characters are awesome and has respect for the actors, it was easy to root for them, so it was sad when they split." —savannahg4e56476eb "Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez. They were an OG celeb couple in the early 2000s, and everyone knew them as 'Bennifer.' Like, they were THE power couple. They were totally iconic, had that whole movie-star-romance vibe, then *poof* — they split for years, leaving everyone shook. And when they reunited in 2021?! That was a whole mood switch-up that no one saw coming! It was like the ultimate 'will they or won't they' scenario that actually came full circle." —sharpwolf3045 "Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon." —rae_zhee "This might be a weird one, but I thought Dave Navarro and Carmen Electra seemed super compatible. Even after their divorce, they still posted kind things about each other. I think this is one couple that would've succeeded if not for the fame component. Fame is a messed up thing." —originalknight396 "Danny DeVito and Rhea Perlman. They were together from the 1970s until the 2010s. However, they are still amicable and spend time together." —brandistea "Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan." —artisticorca74 "Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet. It still feels weird." —alice_follows_the_white_rabbit "Hugh Jackman and his wife, Deborra-Lee Furness, divorcing after being married for 27 years. It always makes me sad to see a couple divorce after being together for so long, and I truly never thought that they would." —ronswansonn And, for the giggles of it all: "Trump and Elon." —dogsandmashedpotatoes Which celebrity couple breakup surprised you the most?

Nicola Peltz and her in-laws closer than ever amid tense Beckham family rift
Nicola Peltz and Brooklyn Beckham have sensationally fallen out with his family since their 2022 wedding - but it seems they get on like a house on fire with her side of the family Much has been made of the tense fallout between Nicola Peltz and Brooklyn Beckham against his family. The couple married in a lavish ceremony in 2022 under happier times, with all of 26-year-old Brooklyn's family present and correct at the nuptials. But soon after, rumours began to emerge of a rift between the couple and his famous parents; the former footballer David Beckham, 50, and former Spice Girls singer Victoria Beckham, 51. More recently, family dramas reached a new peak as speculation erupted that Brooklyn and Nicola, 30, had fallen out with his brothers Romeo, 22, and Cruz, 20 - while many fans noticed the couple seemingly snubbed David's 50th birthday celebrations. While the dramatic fallout continues to generate headlines, some fans have questioned how Nicola gets on with her other in-laws. As the daughter of billionaire businessman Nelson Peltz, 83, and his model wife Claudia Heffner Peltz, 70, the Transformer star is one of eight siblings. She is the sister of brothers Matthew, 40, Will, 39, Brad, 35, Diesel, 27, twins Zachary and Gregory, 22, and a sister named Brittany, 31. With her brothers and sister also enjoying high-profile romances, it is claimed that Nicola gets along much better with her side of the family than with the Beckham clan. Here we look at Nicola and Brooklyn's friendships with some of her extended family. Will Peltz and fiancée Kenya Jones TV and film fans may recognise Nicola's older brother Will, 39, who has starred in big and small screen dramas including Men, Women & Children, Entourage, and Euphoria. Where there has been no drama, however, is between Will, his fiancée, and his younger sister. He has been in a relationship with American fashion model Kenya Kinski-Jones since 2011 - and in recent weeks they became engaged. They shared the happy news on social media, with Kenya writing: "Just engaged. My whole heart for my whole life," with Nicola enthusiastically adding: "Best news ever!" It is believed Nicola - who has a matching tattoo with Will which reads "family" in Hebrew - and Kenya are very close friends. They attended The Daily Front Row Fashion Los Angeles Awards in 2016 and have holidayed together, along with Brooklyn and Will in 2022. In 2024, when Kenya's father Quincy Jones died at the age of 91, Nicola was one to offer her condolences. In an emotional Instagram post, she wrote: "Quincy, my heart is shattered I can't comprehend saying goodbye to you so I won't, I will say see you later." Nicola continued: "You were truly a gift from God. The legacy you have left here on earth is not only your musical genius that has touched the hearts of millions of people, but the most beautiful children that you raised - the Jones family, my family - I am so beyond grateful to know them. Quincy, I can't believe I got lucky enough in this life to grow up knowing your love, wisdom, laughter and light. The twinkle in your eye perfectly matched your smile and lit up this world. Your humour was unmatched, and you made me laugh more than anything. I miss laughing with you. "I love you so much q I will miss you every single day and everyday I will be reminded of your beauty through your unbelievable children. I promise to look out for Kenya for the rest of my life. She is my chosen sister and has your magic running through her. Love always your pita." Zach Peltz and girlfriend Aislinn Carnes Nicola's youngest brothers are twins Zach and Gregory and while they are professional ice hockey players, they generally keep themselves out of the spotlight. However, some details of Zach's private life - and his closeness to Nicola - have been revealed. He is in a loving romance with Instagram model Aislinn - with the pair occasionally posting loved-up snaps together. The pair shared a photo of their NYE kiss in 2023 and another snap showed them with their arms around each other. Their posts draw attention from the Peltz family who like the snaps and offer rare comments. In one post shared at Thanksgiving, Nicola responded with a string of heart eyed emojis to a photo of her brother and his girlfriend snuggled together. Meanwhile, the Daily Mail reports: "Brooklyn is fond of Zach and Aislinn as the four have previously spent time together in fun-filled images." Bradley Peltz and former flame Selena Gomez Fans looking for proof that Nicola is able to balance her family loyalties with close friendships - the evidence they seek is in her continued friendship with pop singer and actress Selena Gomez. While the Only Murders In The Building star is now engaged to music producer Benny Blanco, she was previously linked to former ice hockey player Bradley, 35. Brooklyn is also close to Selena, and the trio has been known to spend time together socially. Selena even celebrated Thanksgiving with Brooklyn and Nicola one year, with fans noting that Brad was also present at the celebrations. The Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast previously delved into the speculation about Selena and Brad back when rumours of a romance were ablaze. One fan claimed: "Streets saying Selena Gomez dating Brad Peltz omg." And another commented: "Selena is dating Brad Peltz?" - while fans also noted how frequently the pair were liking each other's social media posts. Selena began her relationship with Benny in 2023 and became engaged at the end of last year. Nicola and Selena also follow each other on Instagram. Matthew Peltz and Hallie Dunn Nicola's oldest brother, Matthew, has been married to his wife, Hallie Dunn, since 2018, and the couple welcomed a son in 2020. The couple keep themselves largely out of the spotlight, but it is believed Nicola is close to them and loves being an aunt to toddler nephew Asher Lion. Nicola shared a social media snap about the growing family not long after Asher arrived, in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic. She wrote online at the time: "Watching my big brother and his beautiful wife Hallie become new parents is incredible ,especially during this scary time. I hope all the new parents and babies are safe." Nicola's other siblings, Brad, Diesel and Gregory, are very fame shy, but fans could expect Nicola and Brooklyn to be closer to them than they are to his family. While Nicola and Brooklyn wished his sister Harper Seven Beckham a happy birthday earlier this month, it has been noticed that they have unfollowed Cruz and Romeo, fuelling speculation that the rift between the family members may be terminal.

Seinfeld writer claims Hollywood exploited Kanye West, reveals his HBO acting debut was abruptly shelved
has been attempting to regain his prominence after being banned from the industry due to his antisemitic outbursts and social media tirades, which resulted in him being removed from ambassador positions by major brands. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Despite the fact that the rapper's reputation has suffered due to his ongoing legal troubles and controversies, comedy writer , who previously collaborated with him, recalls a very different Kanye. 'A sweetheart with no signs of the hate-fueled mess he later became.' Like many fans, the Seinfeld scribe said he was taken aback by the change, recalling 2008, when Kanye was still grounded and fully aware of his actions. 'A self-aware man' In a recent interview with Page Six, the author of Curb Your Enthusiasm recalled how he first met Kanye when he was working on Entourage. In reference to the rapper's controversial relationship and chaotic divorce from Kim Kardashian, Charles said, "Back then, Ye was sweet, funny, self-aware, and chill; this is pre-Kardashians." "I'm the Black Larry David," was the first thing Kanye said to him. Charles recalled that he would frequently tell stories about making a mistake and needing to apologize. A few hours later, the two were tasked with preparing an HBO half-hour improv comedy that was based on Kanye's life. "His life as a comical horror story," Charles said. With Curb's JB Smoove joining the cast, they were all set to go. Charles remarked, 'Everybody got along great, and Kanye—he was actually a dream to work with. I even considered him a friend at that point.' But after HBO rejected the project, it was shelved, and now Larry Charles is left wondering what might have happened to Kanye West if it had succeeded. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Regarding the rapper's current situation, he stated, "There are all these little things, these little changes in life that sort of have these gigantic consequences," before continuing, "And so, again, he's somebody who has veered off into this direction, and clearly there are mental health issues. " Kanye has been hopping from one project to another over the past few years. Former workers have filed numerous lawsuits against his Yeezy, claiming harassment, wrongful termination, and unfair treatment. He gained media attention for promoting hateful ideologies, having public outbursts, endorsing Hitler, and performing bizarre stunts with his wife, Bianca Censori. Larry Charles wants people to recall the Kanye he knew in spite of everything. 'He's a golden goose, and golden gooses in Hollywood are exploited. Nobody steps up to help them, pull them out of the limelight, and actually get them help. Instead, they just keep squeezing because he still makes money,' he stated.

The rapper's been constantly neck-deep in lawsuits and controversies, and while his image has taken a hit, comedy writer Larry Charles, who once worked with him, remembers a very different Kanye. ' A sweetheart with no signs of the hate-fueled mess he later became.' The Seinfeld scribe said he, like many fans, was stunned by the transformation, thinking back to 2008, when Kanye was still grounded and knew exactly what he was doing. Also read: Kanye West blocked from entering Australia over Hitler song The Curb Your Enthusiasm writer recently spoke to Page Six and recalled meeting Kanye for the first time while he was working on Entourage.
