The relationship between Kaia Gerber and Austin Butler, one of Hollywood’s most adored low-profile couples, has come to an end. Sources confirmed to TMZ that the model and actor quietly split toward the end of 2024 after three years together. The breakup was drama-free, with insiders revealing, “The relationship simply ran its course.”
Gerber, 23, and Butler, 33, were first linked romantically in December 2021. Their relationship, though largely private, occasionally made headlines, especially during high-profile events like the Cannes Film Festival, where they shared affectionate moments on the red carpet.
Despite their celebrity status, the duo made a concerted effort to keep their personal life away from the spotlight. In February 2024, Gerber told WSJ Magazine, “So few things in my life are private, and that is one of the things I try to keep as sacred as possible.” Similarly, Butler refrained from discussing their relationship, telling GQ in May 2022, “I don’t think there’s anything I want to share about that.”
The couple’s last public appearance together was in October 2024, and they were notably absent from each other’s side at the 2025 Golden Globes. While the breakup may come as a surprise to fans, the decision seems mutual and amicable.
Gerber and Butler’s journey together was marked by understated elegance, shared public moments, and mutual respect for privacy. Their most memorable appearances include the Cannes Film Festival screening of Elvis, where Butler’s portrayal of the legendary musician garnered widespread acclaim.
As both move forward, fans continue to admire their grace in handling such a personal transition. For now, Gerber focuses on her flourishing modeling career, while Butler’s Hollywood trajectory remains on the rise, with recent roles cementing his reputation as a leading actor.
Their story serves as a reminder that even in the glitz of Hollywood, some relationships are meant to leave a quiet but impactful legacy.
