32 Of The Biggest Celebrity Splits Of 2020: Lindsey Vonn & P.K. Subban & More
Amidst quarantine and lockdown, plenty of celebrity couples have called it quits in 2020. From Lindsey Vonn & P.K. Subban, Ashley Benson & Cara Delevingne to Bachelor Nation favorites, see more of the biggest break-ups of the year.
2020 has proven to be a totally brutal year all around. But it has been really hard on celebrity couples. A higher number than usual have thrown in the towel when it comes to their relationships, with some heading towards divorce and others going their separate ways — including Lindsey Vonn and P.K. Subban, and Ashely Benson and Cara Delevingne.
Lindsey and P.K. took to Instagram on Dec. 29 to announce their split with similar bittersweet messages. “Over the past 3 years PK and I have had some incredible times together. He is a kind, good man, and someone I respect a great deal,” Lindsey wrote in her message alongside a smiling pic of her and P.K. together. “However, after much consideration we have decided to move forward separately. We will always remain friends and love each other immensely. We ask that you please respect our privacy during this time.”
P.K. shared the same snapshot with the same concluding second paragraph, but added his own feelings about Lindsey to the first. “Lindsey is one of the most kind and caring people I know. I will always treasure our time as a couple together and the many laughs we shared,” it read.
Lindsey and P.K. have been together since at least 2018 and became engaged after he popped the question in summer of 2019 and she did the same in Dec. of the same year. They were planning on getting married this year but postponed the wedding due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Ashley and Cara were together for roughly two years before ending their romance in May. Ashley has since gone on to date G-Eazy.
Kate Beckinsale and Goody Grace found love amid quarantine despite a 24 year age difference. The 47-year-old actress and the 23-year-old musician were first photographed together at a pre-Grammys party on Jan. 25, 2020. They hunkered down at her Los Angeles mansion when quarantine began in March, and in early April they were spotted holding hands and showing PDA on walks trough her neighborhood. By the time her birthday rolled around in July, the two openly said their “I love you” proclamations in Instagram posts. But on Oct. 22, Kate had erased all traces of Goody from her Instagram account and quit following him on social media. He reportedly has since moved out of her mansion and back home to his native Canada.
Rapper Cardi B filed for divorce from husband Offset on Sept. 15, just five days shy of their third wedding anniversary. The couple seemed happy together all summer as a family with 2-year-old daughter, Kulture Kiari Cephus, and it’s unclear what sparked the “WAP” rapper to suddenly file. She did say there are no prospects for a reconciliation in her paperwork, unlike her Dec. 2017 threat to divorce the Migos member. But love won out, and after they were spotted kissing at her Oct. 10 28th birthday blowout in Las Vegas, the two reconciled. She said later that she missed her “best friend” and the passionate intimacy they share.
Lamar Odom‘s fiance Sabrina Parr called off the couple’s engagement on Nov. 4, 2020, just one week shy of the one year mark of his romantic proposal. The pair began dating in Aug. 2019 and he popped the question after a whirlwind four months together. In her Instagram story announcing the breakup, Sabrina wrote that she made the “difficult decision” to split from Lamar, saying that it was the “best for myself and my children.”
Sabrina went on to allege that “Lamar has some things that he alone has to work through,” and that she was “no longer able to be by his side while he seeks the help he so desperately needs.” Much like Cardi and Offset, however, Lamar and Sabrina seemingly reconciled after photos of the pair celebrating the anniversary of their engagement surfaced on social media.
The COVID-19 quarantine proved to be tough on Scott Disick and Sofia Richie‘s relationship. The couple of nearly three years spent plenty of time together locked down in Malibu, but in late April the Talentless founder checked into rehab to deal with some past emotional trauma. He left the facility in Colorado on May 4 after his privacy was blown, and it was reported that Scott and Sofia broke up a few weeks later. He was vacationing with ex Kourtney Kardashian and their three kids in Utah by Memorial Day weekend. Despite hints that Scott and Sofia might get back together, they parted ways for good in Aug. 2020.
It was a bad year for couples from Bachelor Nation when it came to love. Cassie Randolph and former Bachelor Colton Underwood announced their breakup in May 2020 after a year and a half of dating, but no engagement. Things turned ugly though when she filed for and later received a restraining order against Colton in Sept. 2020, after Cassie accused her former beau of stalking and harassing her, even claiming he put a tracking device on her car to keep tabs on her.
The Black Lives Matter protests ended up taking a toll on former Bachelorette Becca Kufrin and her fiancé Garrett Ygrigoyen‘s relationship. He posted pro-police messages in June amid the nationwide rallies over police brutality. Becca later said she did not “agree with” Garrett’s “tone deaf” posts, which had the “wrong time and message and sentiment.” The pair had been happily engaged for two years until that point, but Becca announced on Sept. 1 that it wouldn’t “come as a shock to anyone, but Garrett and I have decided to end our engagement.”
Kelly Clarkson shocked fans when she and husband of seven years Brandon Blackstock called it quits on their seven year marriage, which produced two children — six-year-old daughter River and four-year-old son Remington Alexander. So far the singer turned talk show host has been very mum about why she filed for divorce on June 4 in a Los Angeles court, hoping to keep the matter as private as possible.
Another long marriage came to an end when actors Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green split up in May 2020, one month shy of their 10 year wedding anniversary. A month later the 34-year-old actress was actively dating her Midnight in the Switchgrass co-star Machine Gun Kelly. She’s since gone on to call the rapper/actor her “twin flame,” which is a level above a soul mate. You can check out the gallery above for more celebrity couples who split up in 2020.
