In 2021, their divorce was finalised with the ‘Easy on Me’ hitmaker claiming that the inspiration for her hotly anticipated album ‘30’ came from the downfall of her relationship.

Zoe Kravitz and Karl Glusman

But after also spending 18 months married, the couple had clearly had enough and filed for divorce. The reason for the divorce was unclear, but it was claimed by PEOPLE that Zoe herself had filed for divorce just two days before Christmas. On the day she announced the news to the world on 2nd January 2021, she shared a cryptic meme of a drag queen throwing trash into a dumpster.

Elon Musk and Grimes
The announcement that billionaire businessman Elon Musk and pop star Grimes had split up in September 2021 certainly came as a shock, especially as the couple had welcome their son X in 2020. The space entrepreneur noted that distance was the reason for the break-up, but was keen to point out he is still on good terms with the ‘Oblivion’ singer, with whom he still lives with. He said: “We are semi-separated but still love each other, see each other frequently and are on great terms. 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."

But the ‘Pitch Perfect’ actress sensationally revealed the news to her millions of followers that she and the Anheuser-Busch brewery heir were no more when she was attending Super Bowl alone. She captioned the post: “#singlegirl headed to the Superbowl." A source close to the comic star said the relationship had “just ran its course". Rebel herself didn’t seem too fazed by the break-up either. She said: "Any kind of break-up is hard and not ideal … I feel like, I don’t know if it’s turning 40 or coming into your own … I feel in a really good place."

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West
This one is without a doubt the break-up that shook the world. Kim and her rapper husband Kanye West – who was recently granted a name change to simply Ye – were the centre of the Kardashian dynasty, the billion-dollar reality empire. But the power couple called it all off in 2021 and are currently going through a divorce and a custody battle regarding their four children; North, eight, Saint, five, Chicago, three, and Psalm, three. SKIMS founder Kim – who was married to Damon Thomas from 2000-2004 and Kris Humphries from 2011- 2013 – cited her own career and fame as the reason for the split. She said: “He should have a wife that supports his every move and travels with him and does everything, and I can’t. I feel like a failure. It’s my third marriage. Yeah, I feel like a loser. But I can’t even think about that. I want to be happy."

Don - who shares Dakota, 32, with his ex Melanie Griffith - was asked whether he’s had the serious "where do you see yourself with my daughter?" talk with Chris yet, and he replied: "We kinda like to wait until they get a little more confident in their position, a little further down the road with each other, then we have the talk."
Dakota is best known for playing Anastasia Steele in the 'Fifty Shades' franchise.
She and Chris, 44, have been romantically involved since 2017 where they were first spotted going on a sushi date in LA.
A month after that they were seen on holiday together in Israel, and they’ve been on further romantic getaways together, most recently in July where they were on a boat ride off the coast of Mallorca, Spain.
