As the new year kicks off, the influencer world is buzzing with news of unexpected breakups that seem almost scripted! Kristy Scott has filed for divorce from Desmond Scott after 11 years of marriage, citing infidelity and a clear path forward—with no chance of reconciliation. Meanwhile, Brynne Marie and Mario Mirante, who cohost the“Pretty Funny”podcast, are saying goodbye after nearly two years together.
But that’s not all; TikTok sensation Jess Val Ortiz also announced her split with Alexei Mitchell, sharing an emotional video to reflect on both the good and the bad. Just when you thought these influencers had it all figured out, Danielle Bernstein called off her engagement to Cooper Weisman less than a year after saying yes.
This heartache isn’t just limited to the seasoned pros either. Young love can be fickle, as shown by Mikayla Nogueira’s breakup with Cody Hawken and Sara Buckley’s split from Sterling Buckley after 21 years. It seems like the influencer highlight reel is getting a little more real this year! With so many high-profile breakups happening, it raises the question: is being in the spotlight more of a curse than a blessing?
