The 2010s saw the end of some iconic celebrity relationships. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie divorced just two years after they finally walked down the aisle. Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck ended their marriage, as did Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux and Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan. Kourtney Kardashian called it quits with Scott Disick after three kids and almost a decade together, and Heidi Klum ended things with Seal. Lady Gaga called off an engagement and Katie Holmes saw the end of two major relationships with Tom Cruise and Jamie Foxx. These were the most shocking celebrity splits of the decade.

Lady Gaga and Taylor Kinney
Gaga, 33, and Taylor, 38, met on the set of her music video of “You & I,” and sparks flew immediately for the pair. The
Chicago Fire star proposed four years later, in 2015.
But in 2016 they called it quits. She shed light on the reason for their split in her documentary film,
Five Foot Two, saying, “Me and Taylor are fighting, so that sucks. My threshold for bullshit with men is just — I don’t have one anymore. In relationships, you have to move together.” She also connected their split to
her work on A Star Is Born.
