The short-lived celebrity romances you (probably) forgot about

When it comes to short-lived romances, Henry Cavil and Kaley Cuoco’s ten-day fling is definitely not one to forget. In summer 2013, the Superman star and The Big Bang Theory actress were pictured holding hands on walks around LA. Before the end of July, it seemed that things had sadly ended. After the split, Cuoco revealed that the couple split due to the immense paparazzi’s attention, proclaiming, “I had no one following me until I met Superman.”

Before Hailey, there was Sofia (and how can we forget Selena). Bieber and Richie stole the spotlight in August 2016, where the two jetted off to Japan and Mexico together to showcase their romance to intrigued fans. However, things did not last long as the couple ultimately called it quits after just one month.

“This could be the start of something new,” as we imagine Efron would have said to his former partner Michelle Rodriguez back in the summer of 2014. The two began their relationship on the fourth of July, where they were snapped, being affectionate on a yacht in Italy. Their PDA continued throughout the summer and to other places in Europe - with their latest summer getaway being to Ibiza. Since then, reports confirmed that their two-month relationship had come to a halt. Talk about a summer holiday romance!

It’s inevitable for a Swiftie romance to be included on this list somewhere. Hiddleswift were pictured kissing by a lake next to Taylor’s Rhode Island home back in June 2016. Things quickly became serious, as Hiddleston then met Swift’s parents and even wore a cheesy “I Heart T.S.” top at a Fourth of July party. However, as August slipped away like a bottle of wine, their summer love ended. According to Daily Mail sources, it was believed that the former couple couldn’t handle the “public” nature of the relationship.

Forget the love triangle between Damon, Stefan and Elena - remember Nina Dobrev and Glen Powell’s four-month romance? The Vampire Diaries star and Scream Queens actor began dating in July 2017. The couple even extended their relationship past the warmer months as they were pictured attending a Global Globes party and Thanksgiving together. However, by the end of November, it seemed that the romance had died down, with sources suggesting the couple felt the need to take some time apart due to conflicting schedules.

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are such couple goals that it’s hard to comprehend that the two had past lovers back in the day. But we can all agree that DiCaprio and Lively’s five-month romance was undoubtedly one to remember. Dating back to the much simpler times of summer 2011, the two were pictured holidaying in Europe together. Gossip Girl producer Joshua Safran even said that Blake was on her A-game when she was going out with DiCaprio at the time. Unfortunately, after frivolous outings and luxurious getaways, the romance fizzled away.

With all the Pete and Kanye drama going on, you’d be forgiven to have forgotten about the comedian’s relationship (and engagement) to Ariana Grande. The two began dating in May 2018, and just a month later, they were engaged! Ari even named a song after Pete on her fourth studio album, Sweetener. But less than five months into the engagement, they called it quits. We move!

Rumors of Gigi and Joe’s romance came into the spotlight in 2015 when the two were snapped out and about together - fans even nicknamed them “G.I. Joe.” Sources claim that the two dated for six months. Things definitely started well, with Hadid even co-directing the music video for “Cake By The Ocean,” a single by Joe’s former band DNCE. Joe’s brother Nick even warmed up to Gigi. However, it was all happy families until November 2015, when their relationship ended sourly. It was sour because Joe was believed to be throwing all sorts of shade at Hadid — he even said he would “kill” Hadid in a game of “Marry, Shag, Kill.”
