Celebrity Couples Who Broke Up On Or Around Valentine's Day

The last thing anyone expects to receive on Valentine’s Day is a breakup note from their beloved. Yet, even though February feels like a month that should be immune to heartbreak, that didn’t stop Jennifer Lopez and Diddy or Lady Gaga and Christian Carino from calling it quits in the most romantic month of the year.

See which other famous couples broke up on or around V-Day, below.

Lady Gaga & Christian Carino

The “You & I” singer-songwriter was engaged to her talent agent fiance for only four months before the pair broke up in February 2019. (What confirmed it? Gaga appeared at the Grammys that year without her engagement ring.)

Austin Nichols & Sophia Bush

The One Tree Hill costars, who were involved in an on-and-off romance for six years, called it quits on Valentine’s Day in 2012.

Milo Ventimiglia & Hayden Panettiere

The Heroes costars — who started dating when he was 30 and she was 18 at the time — called off their two-year romance just a few days after Valentine’s Day in 2009.

Hilary Duff & Mike Comrie

Although the couple officially broke up in January 2014, the Lizzie McGuire actress filed for divorce in February 2015, which finalized in the same month of the following year.

Dianna Agron & Alex Pettyfer

After less than a year together, the I Am Number Four castmates officially split in February 2011. Shockingly, things got so nasty between the two that the Glee alum reportedly went into hiding because of Pettyfer's scary behavior.

Ryan Phillipe & Amanda Seyfried

The Mean Girls actress and the Cruel Intentions hunk dated for only a couple of months before ending their romance in February 2011. (They did rekindle their love the following month, only to break up for good over later that summer.)

Jennifer Lopez & Diddy

After two years of dating, Diddy and JLo called it quits on Valentine’s Day in 2001. According to reports at the time, it was said the “Love Don’t Cost a Thing” star broke up with the hip-hop mogul because she knew she wouldn’t have the family life she wanted with him.

Malcolm-Jamal Warner & Regina King

Without mentioning Warner by name, the Watchmen actress seemingly alluded that the actor broke up with her on the holiday in 2013 by way of flowers with a note that said, “I still love you.” King told Us Weekly, “I threw the flowers in the trash.”

Nick Jonas & Delta Goodrem

The Jonas Brothers star — who was 18 years old when he dated the Australian singer, 27 — broke up with Goodrem after about nine months of dating a week after Valentine’s Day in 2012.

Sienna Miller & Jude Law

The Sherlock Holmes star, who infamously cheated on Miller with his family’s nanny, officially called it quits with Miller a week before Valentine’s Day in 2011 — five years after the scandal.
