Imagine that you are a famous person attending the Met Gala in 2022. You are getting ready for a night filled with flashing lights, red carpets, and an exclusive party that most people can only dream of attending. Oh yeah, and your ex is going to be there. In this case, many people who attended this year's Met Gala found themselves in this predicament, as several prominent ex-lovers were invited to interact with the attendees.
See some famous exes who hit the red carpet together in the following gallery, but not together anymore.
Vanessa Hudgens and Austin Butler
In 2020, after nearly nine years together as a couple, longtime companions Vanessa and Austin ended their relationship. Austin is currently in a relationship with Kaia Gerber, and at this year's Met Gala, the two of them made their first public appearance together. When discussing the romance between Vanessa Hudgens and Austin Butler, it is difficult not to use "relationship aspirations" to refer to the two celebrities. The long-term couple has been able to keep their love going strong and loving throughout the years. They have even given snippets of their romance on their individual social media pages.
The Daily Mail reports that the actors initially became acquainted with one another in 2005 while working together on the set of High School Musical. Sparks were flying between Hudgens and her costar Zac Efron at the time. Hudgens dated Efron for five years before they broke up in December 2010.
Jacob Elordi and Kaia Gerber
The relationship between the actor from Euphoria and the model lasted for over a year. In May 2021, when asked about the relationship, According to Kaia, it "truly opened my eyes to what it feels like to love without any sorts of conditions and to the possibilities of love." She went on to say that "being with someone I trust, having a relationship where we don't want anything from one other, and having a connection that is secure and consistent like that has opened my eyes to the possibilities of love." Despite this, the two parted ways on amicable terms in November of 2021.
Many people were taken aback when they learned that Jacob Elordi and Kaia Gerber, who had been dating for a year, had broken up. New rumors indicate that the model and the Euphoria actor's breakup was "a long time coming," even though they appeared to be in excellent standing two months after making their red carpet debut together. Why did the couple decide to end their relationship? The next section can provide more information on Jacob and Kaia's connection and the factors that led to their breakup.
On November 18, a source provided E! News with confirmation that they had ended their relationship, saying that "they split, and it is amicable." It was clear that something was amiss in paradise when Kaia deleted some images of Jacob from her Instagram account, and their absence was particularly noticeable around Halloween. The first time the former couple was caught on camera together was in September 2020. They made their reunion Instagram official on Halloween that same year by dressing up as Elvis and Priscilla Presley.
Kaia Gerber and Pete Davidson
Pete and Kaia had a brief love connection. Still, according to rumors, they broke up in January 2020 so that Pete could focus on his mental health rather than continue the relationship. Pete Davidson opens out about his relationship with Kaia Gerber honestly and openly.
The comedian, 26 years old, discussed his relationship with the model, who is 18 years old, and why things did not work out between them in an interview with Charlamagne Tha God posted on YouTube on YouTube Monday. Charlamagne Tha God conducted the conversation. The interview was born on the same day that Davidson's comedy special for Netflix was made available.
Davidson, who referred to Gerber by her initials, "KG," explained that they had been dating for a few months.
The star of Saturday Night Live, who has stated that he recently sought treatment at the Sierra Tucson treatment center in Arizona, said, "She's young, and I'm f—ing going through a lot, and that was before I. Went to rehab." The treatment center's name is Sierra Tucson.
He stated that she ought to be laughing and enjoying herself in light of the situation. "She shouldn't be forced to care about some guy who has difficulties and s—. It is appropriate for her to take pleasure in her work.
"It simply wasn't the right location or the right time," he continued before praising her parents, Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber. "It just wasn't the right place or the right time." "Her parents were pretty helpful and whatnot, so it's nice that they are," she said.
Pete Davidson and Phoebe Dynevor
The comedian and the Bridgerton actor started dating in the spring of 2021 and made their public debut as a pair in July of that same year. However, they broke up not long after that, most likely because of their respective hectic schedules. Pete is currently in a relationship with a star that goes by the name of Kim Kardashian. I have no idea if you're familiar with her or not.
Phoebe Dynevor and Pete Davidson's tentative romance reportedly ended just five months after a local Manchester, England, Facebook community leaked the word that they had started hanging out together. A Facebook group broke the news in Manchester, England.
Because of their hectic work schedules, which made it nearly difficult for them to see one another because they are currently dating long-distance, the two celebrities reportedly just decided to end their relationship, as reported by The Sun. While Dynevor is presently filming the second season of Bridgerton in the United Kingdom, Davidson may be found working in New York. According to a person who spoke to the publication, "Pete and Phoebe's courtship was a true whirlwind, and from the beginning, they were both dedicated." However, as more time passes, it has become more evident that it will be difficult to make this work.
Austin Butler and Olivia DeJonge
Like Pete, Austin was also a repeat offender at the Met, and his Elvis costar and ex-girlfriend Olivia DeJonge were also present at the occasion. In the upcoming film, Olivia plays Priscilla Presley, Elvis's wife, and she was also present at the Met. Even though Austin attended the Gala with the real-life Priscilla Presley, rumors have it that the two dated for a brief period.
Hailey Bieber and Shawn Mendes
Although Shawn describes the status of their relationship at the time as being more of a "zone of limbo," Hailey and Shawn did attend a previous Met Gala together. Despite this, it seems as though neither party has any ill will toward the other following Hailey's marriage to Justin, who is a famous pop singer.
Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello
They may have been seen together at the 2021 Gala when they presented us with the gift of "It's giving Cher," but after dating for around two years, the couple broke up two months later. Both Shawn and Camila insist that they are still "great friends." The musician known as "Wonder" and the model dated one another before Cabello started dating Mendes, and Justin Bieber married Hailey Baldwin.
Mendes told Rolling Stone in November 2018 that the two were "more than friends," but that he didn't want to "put a term on it." This statement gave the impression that the relationship was uncommitted and informal.
When Mendes and Bieber were dating, they went to the Met Gala together, and cameras caught a touching moment when Mendes helped Bieber with her dress by adjusting the straps.
Olivia Rodrigo and Sabrina Carpenter
Olivia and Sabrina are not exes themselves, but there is a myth that they share an ex... We may never know whether Sabrina's connection with her ex was an indirect inspiration for a "driver's license."
What we do know, however, is that Olivia has stated that she does not like the widely held belief that she and Sabrina were fighting over a male. This is something that we are aware of. In an interview with GQ, she stated, "I don't really subscribe to hating other women because of boys." "The is so ridiculous, and I really dislike that narrative that was being passed about," the speaker said, "which was being flung around." At some point in the future, everything will be irrelevant and forgotten.
Joe Jonas and Gigi Hadid
Joe, who was previously romantically involved with Gigi's best friend Taylor Swift, dated the older sister of the Hadid sisters. The relationship between the two parties lasted for a total of five months before it ended in 2015.
