3 celebrity couples that broke our hearts when they announced their split

Yes, not all relationships are meant to last a lifetime. We get that but, Camila Cabello and Tom Cruise had us believe that love is real and forever. Too bad their intensely passionate love for their then-partners lost steam too easy, too soon.

When she twirled and mouthed I love it when you call me Señorita during those racy live performances, Camila Cabello almost sold the tricky idea of growing old with someone. But, their world and ours, came crushing down when the former pair announced break-up on November 21, 2021, through Instagram.

As a new man enters Cabello’s life, as reported by ET Online, here’s us mourning the death of three celebrity couples who loved intensely and moved on rather swiftly.

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes

Who doesn’t remember the Top Gun: Maverick star’s epic jump on Oprah Winfrey’s talk show back in 2005, confessing to his love for actress Katie Holmes. Oprah, who was surprised to see Cruise in such a good mood, asked, ‘What has happened to you?’. To which, a blushing Cruise excitedly replied, ‘I'm in love’, as reported by The Ringer.

But, sadly, their relationship ended in divorce in 2012 and the couple's only child Suri Cruise now living with her mother.

Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson

Just when we thought that the Kanye West saga was finally over, and our celebrity make-up mogul Kim Kardashian has found love and happiness again, the news of them breaking up hits the headlines, as reported by E! News.

Kete, the moniker given by fans to the former couple, were obsessed with each other and would send each other love notes and FaceTime one another while Pete was away shooting in Australia, as reported by US Weekly.

After nine months of dating, with Kanye West going after Pete Davidson with all his might, the duo called it off owing to hectic work schedules and long distance, the aforementioned E! News report explained.

Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes

Brought together by their love of music, these musicians were hopelessly in love with each other. And their single Señorita (2019) is a testament to their now-gone sizzling chemistry.

The couple, who was always vocal about their feelings for one another, dated for two years before parting ways for good in November of 2021. In an Instagram post they revealed the sad news to their fans. According to a news report by People, the couple separated as their careers were taking them in ‘different’ directions. Cabello is now dating Austin Kevitch, reported ET Online.

Ouch, doesn’t love hurt after all?
