Things are hard enough in these trying times without adding heartbreak to the mix, but apparently multiple sources have confirmed to People that actress Ashley Benson and vocalist, author and sentient pair of eyebrows Cara Delevingne have gone their separate ways.
Reports are swirling that the pair, who dated for just under two years and only really confirmed their relationship at all in June 2019, chose to split in early April. Depending on how time’s working for you in quarantine, that is roughly either one month, ten minutes or fifty years ago. A source told People, “Cara and Ashley always had their ups and downs before but it’s over now… Their relationship just ran its course.”
Benson and Delevingne enjoyed a colorful time as a couple, and famously adopted a sex bench together in May 2019. In October of that year, Cara told Elle UK, “I don’t want to be so secretive that people think I’m ashamed of anything, but I’ve never been in a relationship where things are so public, or where I posted pictures of someone else… This seemed different. We had gotten to the point where we had kept it a secret, or at least not wanted attention, and now I feel like I’m not going to not be proud… It just feels incredible when you’re not alone, when you’re facing the world with someone else.” She also announced her love to the world via an acceptance speech at the TrevorLIVE Gala, when she let the world know that her pet name for Ashley was “Sprinkles.” Remember when we thought they’d maybe gotten married? What a ride!
Splitting up during quarantine seems like a tough choice, and we here at Vapid Fluff HQ wish only the best to both Cara and Ashley. Reportedly, Cara is coping by spending time with other famous supermodels and beautiful celebrities, hopefully over Zoom or from a minimum of six feet away with frequent breaks for handwashing. As of this article’s publication, custody agreements regarding both the sex bench and the puppies the pair had been fostering during quarantine had not been made available to the press.
