Austin Butler and Kaia Gerber have officially called it quits after three years together. According to TMZ, the couple ended their relationship toward the end of 2024, and there's no "bad blood" between them as the relationship just ran its course. The news comes months after the model was photographed getting close to Saturday Night Live star and Latino heartthrob Marcello Hernandez.

In photos posted to X on September 17, Gerber has her hands on him, with the comedian looking more than happy about the situation. In another photo, they are smiling at each other with their mouths just inches away from each other.

However, Gerber and Butler were later photographed walking hand in hand into Gracie Abrams’ concert in New York City on October 5. Elle reported that October was their last sighting together.
Since then, more clues began to pile up. The Elvis star was notably missing from Gerber's family trip to Mexico for the New Year. People were also wondering why there weren't any sightings of them together on Golden Globes weekend.
An end of an era
Butler and Gerber have been one of Hollywood's hottest couples since their romance began in late 2021 after her split from Jacob Elordi. It was his first big relationship following his split with Vanessa Hudgens in January 2020.
Over the years, they made headlines for their sweet red carpet moments, including when Gerber supported Butler during his Elvis press tour. They even made their Met Gala debut together in 2022.
