4. Stevie J and Faith Evans
Stevie J and Faith Evans tied the knot on July 17, 2018. When the two first announced their marriage, it received some criticism due to Evans being once married to the late rapper Biggie Smalls.

Ignoring the naysayers, the couple continued with their relationship until it came to a close in September 2021.

7. Saweetie and Quavo
Saweetie announced the break-up back in March on Twitter saying, “I’m single. I’ve endured too much betrayal and hurt behind the scenes for a false narrative to be circulating that degrades my character. Presents don’t band aid scars and the love isn’t real when the intimacy is given to other women.” The rapper continued, “I emotionally checked out a long time ago and have walked away with a deep sense of peace and freedom. Excited for this new chapter of elevation .”
8. Kanye West and Kim Kardashian
Earlier this year, the two announced that they were getting a divorce. It had been in talks for months prior to their announcement, according to sources close to the two.

9. J.Lo and A-Rod
Jennifer Lopez and A-Rod called it quits earlier this year. There have been many speculations about why the two broke up.
