5 Short Lived Celebrity Romances You Totally Forgot About
Sometimes even romantic vacations don't help.
The difficult part of compiling this list was picking only five romances out of dozens and hundreds of brief flings that drew attention of the press and fans momentarily but finished as soon as they started, with the stars' names never appearing alongside each ever again.
But here we go — five short-lived celebrity romances that were once on everyone's minds and have been long forgotten.
5. Justin Bieber dated Sofia Richie
Bieber married model Hailey Baldwin in 2019, and as the singer's dedicated fans most likely remember, their love story was pretty tempestuous. The two had been dating since 2015, briefly splitting and getting back together by 2018.
And during that short hiatus, Bieber actually managed to date Sofia Richie — their romance lasted only a few weeks.
4. Zac Efron was caught on camera smooching Michelle Rodriguez
The photo was published in The Daily Mail in 2014, and sometime later, the stars were seen riding horses and dancing together in a nightclub. Sadly, Efron and Rodriguez soon realized they weren't made for each other and parted ways after just two months.
3. Blake Lively dated Leonardo DiCaprio for five months
Reportedly, the two actors met when Lively unsuccessfully auditioned for the role of Daisy Buchanan in The Great Gatsby (2013), where DiCaprio played the titular character. They were spotted on a romantic getaway and photographed biking together in New York. The stars' romance lasted only five months, as they broke up before the end of 2011.
2. Kaley Cuoco and Henry Cavill had the shortest romance ever
They met in the summer of 2013 and broke up after only ten days.
Surprisingly, one of the reasons for that was Cuoco's annoyance with the photographers who were chasing Cavill everywhere after the release of Man of Steel. Apparently, the actress wasn't used to being followed by paparazzi, despite being the major star of The Big Bang Theory.
1. Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston were together for one summer.
Swift and Hiddleston met in May of 2016 at the Met Gala. Their romance lasted long enough to get its own pairing name from fans ('Hiddleswift') and involved vacations across half of Europe, but sadly, it ended in September of the same year. Their parting seemed rather amicable, and Hiddleston later spoke warmly of Swift.
