BuzzFeed Community members shared the celeb couple breakups that surprised them the most. Depending on your age, you might feel nostalgic or shocked that these celebs dated each other in the first place. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez were an OG celeb couple in the early 2000s, and everyone knew them as ‘Bennifer’ They were iconic, had that whole movie-star-romance vibe, then *poof* — they split for years, leaving everyone shook. Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter split because they worked together on Dexter. Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon split because of Tim Robbins’ work schedule, but they are still amicable and spend time together. Jenna Dewan Tatum and Channing Tatum split because Jenna Tatum is “too much of a diva” and Jenna Dewen is “not a good enough person” to be together with ChanningTatum. The couple’s split was announced on October 1. They are still together on Twitter and have a daughter together.
1.”Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner. I wouldn’t say I was shocked, but more sad. I think he really needs her and still does. It just sucks that he can’t also be what SHE needs. I’m glad they can still co-parent and be friends, though.”

2.”Chris Pratt and Anna Faris. They seemed so sweet and supportive of each other to the public. Anna’s story about showing him her bug collection on a date and his sweet reaction to it was just precious. But then…we found out more about Christ Pratt.”

6.”Kim and Kanye were so in love for so long and clicked so well when they first met. I mean, by the time they broke up, I wasn’t too shocked because he seemed totally wild. But part of me thought and hoped that all the stuff he was doing was just for media attention, and that he was mostly normal at home with his friends and family. So, I don’t know, their divorce made me sad for them. And to have so many kids together…it just breaks my heart a little.”

8.”I was sad when Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter split. They worked together on Dexter. As someone who thinks their characters are awesome and has respect for the actors, it was easy to root for them, so it was sad when they split.”

9.”Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez. They were an OG celeb couple in the early 2000s, and everyone knew them as ‘Bennifer.’ Like, they were THE power couple. They were totally iconic, had that whole movie-star-romance vibe, then *poof* — they split for years, leaving everyone shook. And when they reunited in 2021?! That was a whole mood switch-up that no one saw coming! It was like the ultimate ‘will they or won’t they’ scenario that actually came full circle.”

11.”This might be a weird one, but I thought Dave Navarro and Carmen Electra seemed super compatible. Even after their divorce, they still posted kind things about each other. I think this is one couple that would’ve succeeded if not for the fame component. Fame is a messed up thing.”
