    Pete started dating the Bridgerton star back in April 2021 and broke up only five months later reportedly due to being long-distance.

    After first being linked in 2019, the past PDA partners officially split up in 2020. In a sit-down interview with Charlamagne Tha God, Pete revealed that they ended so he could focus on his mental health.

    And obviously, Petey boy walked this year's Met Gala carpet with his new girlfriend, Kim K:

    After dating for two years, the two singers officially called things off just two months after "giving Cher" together at the 2021 Met Gala.

    And here's a pic of them giving said Cher on last year's Met Gala carpet, right before their 🔥demise🔥:

    5. Shawn Mendes and Hailey Bieber

    The relationship timeline of the exes, who walked the Met Gala carpet together back in 2018, is a little unclear, but it seems like things were more casual. Shawn even said in an interview with Rolling Stone that the two were "more than friends" but that he "didn't want to put a label on it." The singer and the model seem to have still remained friendly.

    And here's when they were on the MGC (Met Gala carpet) in 2018:

    7. Austin Butler and Olivia DeJonge

    Austin Butler — star of the the upcoming biopic Elvis — reportedly dated his onscreen wife, Olivia DeJonge, while they were filming. The costars apparently broke up, but to be honest, I don't know when!

    Also they had to take this super-awkward pic together (and with Priscilla Presley) on the carpet:

    The actor and model dated for four years and even share a daughter, but the now-exes chose to call things off back in 2019.

    Bradley and Irina went to several Met Galas together, but this look from 2018 was everything. Sad!

    The singer and the rapper were engaged in 2013, but Ciara broke it off after Future allegedly cheated on her. The breakup of the exes, who share a son, was extremely public with a custody battle, a defamation lawsuit, and a countersuit. Their legal issues were finally put to bed in 2017.

    13. Future and Lori Harvey

    While the two singers-turned-actors are not exes, they're rumored to share a very notable ex — *cough* Joshua Bassett *cough* — who supposedly inspired Olivia's iconic song "Driver's License."
