In the social media age, the relationships of famous folks are frequently documented for their followers to enjoy. Unfortunately, just as the good times are posted, shared, and deemed “couple goals,” the breakups are just as publicized. From cheating scandals to bitter divorce court battles over finances to wild accusations of abuse, celebrity breakups can be some of the messiest public events to play out in the media. Even with the glitz of their personalities, these splits are a sobering reminder that wealth and fame do not protect people from heartbreak. Let’s take a look back at some of the messiest breakups so far this year.
Porsha Williams & Simon Guobadia
Porsha Williams filed for divorce from Simon Guobadia in February 2024 after walking down the aisle on November 25th, 2022. Since then, their split has been filled with turmoil, with Guobadia accusing Williams of bringing a “gunman” into his home and even suggesting she meticulously waited to file for divorce in order to take advantage of certain benefits outlined in their prenup. Williams claimed she actually filed it after learning of Guobadia’s ongoing immigration case.
Kyle Richards & Mauricio Umansky
“Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky initially announced their separation in July 2023, though much of their marital breakdown played out during season 13 of the Bravo series, which concluded its three-part reunion in March 2024. Richards has suggested that disrespect in the marriage caused their separation after Umansky was spotted holding hands with “Dancing With the Stars” partner Emma Slater in late 2023.
Jacquees & Deiondra Sanders
Jacquees and Deiondra Sanders had an extremely public breakup in early February 2024. Things took a nasty turn online when rapper Dreezy revealed that Jacquees had been texting her in an attempt to get back together while he was dating Sanders, daughter of football icon Deion Sanders. Dreezy shared text message receipts and had a brief back-and-forth with Sanders. It seems that this led to Sanders dumping the “Body Right” singer, though they were spotted on vacation shortly after, which seems to indicate that they are back together.
Dreezy puts Jacquees on blast, showing a series of text messages where Jacquees asks the artist to take him back.

Larsa Pippen & Marcus Jordan
“Real Housewives of Miami” star Larsa Pippen and basketball nepobaby Marcus Jordan were rumored to have split in February 2024. At the time, they didn’t release any statement about a split, though they did remove all photos of one another from Instagram. They reunited for Valentine’s Day, having been spotted hanging out in Miami. However, their reconciliation was short-lived. Pippen spoke about their relationship, stating in “Good Morning America:” “I don’t think he’s my guy.” Jordan has slammed Pippen for “rewriting history,” though we still don’t know the specifics of their split.
