Kristen Wiig, Drew Barrymore, Fabrizio Moretti
Actress Drew Barrymore dated The Strokes band member Fabrizio Moretti for five years before she moved on with Will Kopelman, the man she eventually married. She and Moretti were pretty serious, and when they broke up, both parties felt it. It wasn’t long after their split when Moretti started dating Barrymore’s best friend, actress Kristen Wiig. Sources say that Barrymore was the one who introduced them to each other. Wiig and Moretti felt right, even to Barrymore, who was by then in another relationship. Unfortunately, her marriage to Kopelman did not last either, and she had to hire a divorce lawyer after four years. It’s a good thing that the ladies’ friendship exceeded the love triangle because they remained friends through it all.
Ian Somerhalder, Nina Dobrev, Nikki Reed
The Vampire Diaries stars Ian Somerhalder and Nina Dobrev dated for three years and were such a popular couple while they were still together. When things did not work out, however, they decided to call it quits. Somerhalder moved on with another vampire, but this time one from The Twilight Saga. He and Nikki Reed started dating, and the tabloids blew up with stories that Reed and Dobrev were not in good terms. The alleged bad blood that the media took credit for was debunked by a photo of all three of the stars together for dinner. Dobrev posted on her Instagram account that all three of them were actually friends and that she was happy for the couple. She was even invited to their wedding in 2015.
Anjelica Huston, Jack Nicholson, Rebecca Broussard
Back in the day, Anjelica Huston and Jack Nicholson were a power couple. They were together on and off from 1973 until 1990. When Nicholson confessed to have gotten Rebecca Broussard pregnant, however, it did not sit well with Huston. The moment she got the news, she immediately took her car and drove to Paramount Pictures where Nicholson was. Just as he was coming out of the bathroom, Huston caught him and attacked him with all the force she could muster. It was such a scandal but that did not keep the actress from letting her ex know how she felt about him cheating on her. Though Nicholson was probably covered by insurance anyway, his relationship with Huston ended for good. On the other hand, he stayed with Broussard until 1994.
Mel Gibson, Robyn Moore, Oksana Grigorieva
Hollywood royalties and movie stars Mel Gibson and Robyn Moore were married for 26 long years. They were a happy couple together until Moore hired a divorce attorney in 2006. The reason for this was because a photo of Gibson with Oksana Grigorieva together was released. Since he was cheating on her, Moore decided she was not having any of it. As the couple’s marriage ended, Gibson and Grigorieva stayed together for more than a decade. In 2010, she also called it quits, giving the press some voicemails she received from Gibson with threatening content. Not only was the actor’s reputation heavily stained, but his love life was also ruined at that point. Even in Hollywood, true love is obviously very hard to find.
Meg Ryan, Dennis Quaid, Russell Crowe
Given credit as the greatest couple of the 1990s, Meg Ryan and Dennis Quaid went through a lot together. Their relationship bloomed before the eyes of their fans, and when they finally got married and began to start a family, the whole world was behind them. However, Ryan had an affair with actor Russell Crowe, one of her co-actors in Proof of Life. The divorce of the couple was devastating news to all, but things got worse as Ryan continued to talk about it in her interviews. She said that Quaid was actually cheating on her as well, and she only knew more about it after their divorce. Quaid denied this, though, choosing to protect their child from the media.
Eva Longoria, Tony Parker, Erin Barry
Desperate Housewives actress Eva Longoria was married to the French athlete and basketball celebrity Tony Parker for three years. Things crumbled when Longoria found out that Parker had been cheating on her during their marriage. She found heaps of text exchanges that he had with other women, including Erin Barry, the wife of his former teammate. After finding an alarming degree of infidelity, Longoria got a divorce in 2010. She did, however, admit in one of her interviews that she still loved her husband. What was happening to their relationship was making her lonely. It really is sad to find out that the person you have loved the most was not loyal to you. Even celebrities get their hearts broken this way.
Arnold Schwarzenegger, Maria Shriver, The Housekeeper
A lot of celebrity marriages have been ruined by the household help. Here is another story that falls under this category. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver had been married to each other for more than two decades. The action star turned politician has been a role model to many, and everyone thought he had the best romantic life as well. His wife has been by his side through all that he’s been through in his career. It came as a shock when the world found out that he had been having an affair with their housekeeper Mildred Baena. Shriver hired a lawyer and filed a divorce after finding out in 2011. Baena and Schwarzenegger had a child, and this made his wife leave him upon the discovery.
Courtney Love, Kurt Cobain, Billy Corgan
Courtney Love and Kurt Cobain were hailed as an iconic couple. They got together and formed a bond in the presence of the media, and they had a lot of diehard fans. They made a lot of people giddy and happy when they were in the same room together. However, their start was not as pretty. Love was still with Billy Corgan from The Smashing Pumpkins when she fell in love with the Nirvana band member. Consequently, she decided to leave Corgan to be with Cobain. This started the foundation of the legendary couple that they came to be. They then tied the knot after one year of being together. With all their fame and fortune combined, the pair made many investments as a married couple after their wedding, of course.
Tom Brady, Gisele Bündchen, Bridget Moynahan
Tom Brady and Bridget Moynahan were together a while back, and their relationship eventually bore fruit as they had a son together. Moynahan was pregnant with their boy named Jack when Brady changed his mind about them. He started dating Gisele Bundchen even though he knew his ex was with a child. Eventually, they broke up while he and Bundchen became a couple. Jack grew up, and though his parents were no longer together, they still tried to both be there for him. Their co-parenting strategies were even praised by Bundchen. Because both his parents could afford it, he would not need any student loans anytime soon anyway. It’s great that he still gets the support that he needs while growing up.
Khloe Kardashian, Tristan Thompson, Jordyn Woods
Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson have been together for quite some time, and Thompson has been notorious for constantly cheating on Khloe. Though they still are not married, the couple is supposed to be in a serious relationship. When news broke out that he cheated on her again, it was a shock this time because he cheated with Khloe’s little sister, Kylie Jenner’s best friend. Her name, as you might all know by now, is Jordyn Woods. While this all happened behind the cameras, the incident was featured in the family’s reality show Keeping Up with the Kardashians. Making their real-life events an investment for television really struck a bone this time as Kardashian confessed to the camera that the whole fiasco was not just a TV show; it was her life.
