Biggest Celebrity Breakups in 2015 on record

Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale

 
Stefani filed for divorce from the Bush frontman on Aug. 3, 2015, citing "irreconcilable differences." "While the two of us have come to the mutual decision that we will no longer be partners in marriage, we remain partners in parenthood and are committed to jointly raising our three sons in a happy and healthy environment," the couple said in a joint statement to ET. "To that end, we respectfully request privacy from the media during this time." The No Doubt lead singer met her future husband when her band toured with Bush in 1995. They married in 2002.  


The former One Direction star ended his engagement of nearly two years with the Little Mix singer in August 2015. Malik and Edwards, both 22, each got their start in singing groups formed on the British X Factor. They battled very public ups-and-downs and the pressures of Malik's status as a boyband heartthrob, but the broken engagement reportedly left Edwards "devastated." 


The country superstar called it quits with her husband and manager of 26 years in August 2015. "Despite this being the end of their marriage, they continue to support each other," read a joint statement on McEntire's website. "They have worked together for 35 years and will continue to do so. They have asked that you respect their privacy during this time."

Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert

 

Country music's king and queen filed for divorce after four years of marriage in July 2015. "This is not the future we envisioned," reps for the couple said in a statement to the Associated Press. "And it is with heavy hearts that we move forward separately. We are real people, with real lives, with real families, friends and colleagues. Therefore, we kindly ask for privacy and compassion concerning this very personal matter."

After months of denying rumors of marital troubles, Affleck and Garner confirmed they were divorcing in late June 2015.

This will be our only comment on this private, family matter. Thank you for understanding."

Theron and Penn called off their engagement in June 2015, just weeks after appearing together at the Cannes Film Festival.

The pro golfer and Olympic skiier called it quits in early May 2015, both citing "hectic" schedules and "cherished" memories of their time together.
