30 Of The Most Amicable And Not-So-Friendly Celebrity Breakups
Some of these breakups are sadder than our own!
Falling in love is a wonderful thing. Knowing that you are with a person who feels the same way about you, cares for you, and has your best interests at heart is magical—and not the CGI kind.
As romantic as they seem, relationships don't always end with happy endings. It's a fact that most relationships will inevitably reach their lonely conclusion.
At the start of most relationships, breaking up wouldn't even seem like a possibility. You're too happy for this person not to be the one, right?
No matter how many wishes you send out into the universe, sometimes things just fall apart. The person you're with could just be a quick cameo in your life and not a constant character who will always be beside you.
Even famous Hollywood celebrities are not immune to the natural decay of romantic relationships. In their case, their celebrity status sometimes becomes a factor in their breakup.
It's also harder to maintain a private relationship when the couple is constantly scrutinized by the public. Try as they may, they just can't escape the attention of their audience.
Their relationships are often splashed across front pages, and speculations about marriage, pregnancy, and cheating are always discussed, even when there's no basis for it. When they break up, their "journey" is once again chronicled like a feast for everyone to share, making a sad breakup even messier.
