26 Biggest Celebrity Breakups of 2025: From Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom to Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban

For many celebrity pairs, 2025 has turned into a year of heartbreak.

A study by Better Law Divorce Attorneys CEO Melaniece Davies dove deep into the most shocking celebrity breakups of 2025. The research showed that 60 percent of the high-profile splits cited "career strain, infidelity, or lifestyle clashes" as driving factors, while "social media pressure, grueling touring/filming schedules, and relentless tabloid scrutiny" emerged as "major stressors" in celebrity marriages.

Famous musicians and actors accounted for nearly half of the headlines, highlighting how the spotlight can heighten the risk of separation or divorce.

Another key finding from Davies' study confirmed 40 percent of the celebrity pairs had been together for more than eight years. While many issued amicable statements, others shocked the public with their conflict-filled partings.

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom split after 10 years of relationship, a source confirmed on June 25.

According to the insider, the estranged couple had separated but "are amicable" as they co-parent their daughter, Daisy Dove.

"It's not contentious at the moment. Katy is of course upset but is relieved to not have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life."

The breakup was said to be "a long time coming," with tensions building in the months before their separation.

Perry began keeping herself "busy" on tour, though she was distracted by the development.

The insider said the "Last Friday Night" songstress was renting out her Westcott Estate in Montecito, Calif., but she and Orlando "have always lived in their other Montecito home as their primary residence."

Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson parted ways after 10 years of marriage. They wed in July 2014 and welcomed three children: Maxwell "Maxi" Drew, Birdie Mae, and Ace Knute.

"Eric and I have been living separately navigating a painful situation in our marriage," Simpson said in a statement to People in January. "Our children come first, and we are focusing on what is best for them. We are grateful for all of the love and support that has been coming our way, and appreciate privacy right now as we work through this as a family."

In June, a source claimed Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson called off their engagement and split for good after dating on and off for eight years.

Jessica Alba and Cash Warren's nearly 17 years of marriage came to an end in January.

Although they always said divorce was never an option, an insider claimed the ex-couple ended their romance "after a lot of heartfelt and tearful conversations, and marriage counseling." They reportedly struggled to keep the spark alive in the relationship, prompting them to go their separate ways.

"No matter what's going on right now, it seems they will remain close," a source spilled. "If they're filing for divorce, it's not because of some hateful drama. They still look happy together."

In February, Lily Allen and David Harbour ended their four-year marriage as their union had been "crumbling."

Two months later, the Stranger Things actor broke his silence on the breakup for the first time, telling GQ, "I'm protective of the people and the reality of my life. There's no use in that form of engaging [with tabloid news] because it's all based on hysterical hyperbole."

Harbour said commenting on what happened would only fuel "a salacious s--- show of humiliation."

Nina Dobrev and Shaun White ended their engagement and broke up after five years together, a report in September revealed.

"It was a mutual decision, and wasn't an easy one, but it was made with love and a deep respect for one another," a source close to the pair said.

In an Instagram Story in January, tennis star Naomi Osaka confirmed she and Cordae "are no longer in a relationship." The pair dated for six years before the split.

They added, "While this was not an easy decision, we remain united in raising our children with love, stability, and the values we share. Though no longer a couple, we will always be a family, cheering from the actual and proverbial sidelines for our children's — and each other's — happiness and success."

In June, Lydia Velez Gonzalez announced she filed for divorce from Milton Johnson after nearly three years of marriage.

"It wasn't one thing," she said of their split on the June 11 episode of the "What's the Reality?" podcast. "It was a layer of situations and things that kept piling up. When I told him, 'Hey, I'll let you know when the divorce papers are ready,' his response was, 'I'm not going to sign the papers unless there's an NDA.'"

Gonzalez reportedly decided to go public with their split after staying quiet for "too long."

"I needed to share my thoughts and my experience because what I've been suffering in silence has been too much for me to be quiet and keep quiet," she continued, adding problems began piling up six months after their wedding.

While Brittany Cartwright originally filed for divorce from Jax Taylor in August 2024, the filing is still pending and has yet to be finalized.

In August, lawyer Evan Schein of Berkman Bottger Newman & Schein LLP in Manhattan exclusively told OK! that Taylor could face financial penalties if he intentionally stalls divorce proceedings "for financial gain."

"[It] is a terrible public relations move even if it may be a good legal strategy decision," Schein noted. "Certain things are better left unsaid and Jax's recent admissions fall into this category. In any divorce proceeding there are strategical decisions and tactical moves made with careful thought and consideration."

The divorce lawyer continued, "There may be reasons one party in a divorce proceeding wants to delay a resolution – financial gain is often one of those reasons. While frustrating to the spouse who is on the receiving end of the delays, it is up to the Judge presiding over the case to move things forward and see through the delay tactics by one spouse."

According to Schein, if Taylor "continues to stall despite repeated efforts by a Judge there can be financial penalties such as a requirement he be responsible for his spouse's legal fees."

"However, given that the divorce was only filed one year ago, the likelihood of a Judge signing off on a divorce agreement at this exact stage without both parties signatures and without clear proof of obstructionist and dilatory conduct is slim to none," he added.

Karamo Brown announced he and Carlos Medel hit the brakes just a day after Valentine's Day.

"Un poco más fresón, Happy Valentine's Day ! ✌️ feliz día del amor y de la amistad !" he wrote on February 15. "Although this year I'm single I still want to make sure love is around ! All my love to my friends and family, thank you for being part of my life one more year ! ❤️."

"That's just the way it goes," he said.

As for the cheating rumors, Garcia-Gonzalez shared, "I like to say, my friends and family, are the people that support me, they know who I am as a person, and that's honesty. That's the biggest, the most important thing."

Amaya Espinal confirmed her split from Bryan Arenales in an Instagram Story on August 27.

According to the Love Island USA alum, it "became very clear that [they] were on two different journeys" after she and her fellow islander left the villa.
