The year 2025 proved to be a turbulent one for celebrity relationships, with tabloids and entertainment portals closely tracking high-profile divorces, sudden breakups, and long marriages coming to unexpected ends. From Hollywood power couples to Bollywood stars, several splits dominated headlines throughout the year.
Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban
One of the most shocking celebrity divorces of 2025 involved Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban. After nearly two decades of marriage and two daughters, Kidman reportedly filed for divorce in late 2025, citing irreconcilable differences. According to media reports, the couple had been living separately for months before the filing.
Tabloid speculation suggested tensions related to prolonged separations and alleged infidelity, though neither Kidman nor Urban publicly confirmed such claims. Fans were particularly surprised given Urban’s public praise for Kidman earlier in the year.
Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness
Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness officially finalized their divorce in mid-2025, ending a 27-year marriage. While the couple had announced their separation in 2023, legal proceedings reignited media attention.
Deborra-Lee spoke openly in interviews about a “painful and transformative journey,” amid unverified reports linking Jackman to a Broadway co-star. Both parties maintained privacy regarding specific allegations, but the split was widely described as one of the year’s most emotionally charged.
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom confirmed their breakup in 2025 after nearly a decade together and an engagement announced in 2019. Sources described the separation as mutual but emotionally difficult, citing differences in personal priorities. The couple continues to co-parent their daughter.
Jessica Alba and Cash Warren
Jessica Alba and Cash Warren announced their separation after 16 years of marriage. While the split appeared amicable, the sudden announcement surprised fans who viewed the pair as one of Hollywood’s more stable couples.
Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson
Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson ended their long-running, on-and-off relationship in June 2025. The breakup was described as quiet and mutual, marking the end of one of Hollywood’s most private romances.
Other Notable High-Profile Splits
Year-end lists also highlighted:
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, whose divorce was finalized in early 2025
Sydney Sweeney and Jonathan Davino, who called off their engagement
Bollywood breakups including Tamannaah Bhatia and Vijay Varma
Cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma, whose divorce drew public attention

Entertainment observers dubbed 2025 the year of “Hollywood heartbreak,” marked by long-term relationships ending amid public scrutiny. While some couples handled separations quietly, others found themselves at the center of intense speculation, reminding fans that celebrity relationships face pressures beyond the spotlight.
