1. Kris Jenner And Robert Kardashian Sr.
While they might not have been celebrities at the time, Kris Jenner and Robert Kardashian Sr. made their names known. When the pair first got married, their life was like a fairy tale, and they quickly started expanding what would later be called the Kardashian empire with four beautiful children.
However, the fairytale soon became a nightmare when Kris had an affair with a soccer player, Todd Waterman. She did not deny the affair, and the couple decided to split, which was challenging for their children. They were able to remain amicable for their family until Robert's death in 2003.
2. Colin Firth And Livia Giuggioli
Colin Firth and Livia Guiggioli were a beloved Hollywood couple, but their problems started to arise when they talked about an alleged stalker. Well, it turns out, Livia was actually having an affair with that man after they had been close for a few years.
Livia's affair started in 2015, and the stalking charges were filed in 2016. It seems strange that she would charge her lover with stalking charges, but this led to the end of Colin and Livia's 21-year marriage. They also had two children together, and it was difficult for them to explain the situation.
3. Emma Thompson And Kenneth Branagh
When celebrities split after six years because of their work schedules, we all know something is up. Our red flag radars started going off when Emma Thompson and her husband of six years broke up suddenly. We understand life gets busy... but after six years of marriage?!
Once they announced their split, rumors started circling that they actually broke up because someone cheated. It turns out Emma's husband, Kevin Branagh, was having an affair with his Frankenstein co-star Helena Bonham Carter. Insert sad face here.
4. Woody Allen And Mia Farrow
If you have seen the new docuseries Allen Vs. Farrow, you might know that there is much more to the story than a cheating scandal. However, when Woody Allen and Mia Farrow first met, people thought it was the beginning of a great love story, but boy, were we all very wrong.
However, their relationship fell apart when the disgraced director started having an affair with Farrow's daughter Soon-Yi Previn. Allen thought the affair would remain a secret, but then the couple got married and opened up to the public. They are still together, and there is much more to their strange affair.
5. Kathy Lee And Frank Gifford
Kathy Lee Gifford is known as one half of the dynamic morning talk show duo Kathy Lee & Hoda. The daytime television star always has a bright smile on her face, but there was a time when she wasn't so joyous. In 1997, Globe published a story that Frank Gifford was cheating on her.
Frank initially denied the rumors until a video transcript was published from his encounter with Suzen Johnson. He couldn't deny the affair when the evidence came out, but Kathy Lee and Frank decided to work through their problems and remained together until he passed away in 2015.
6. Gwen Stefani And Gavin Rossdale
We aren't going to lie, we were a little sad when these two ended things. Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale met in 1995 during a No Doubt tour. The couple's relationship was filled with many ups and downs, but they brought three beautiful children into the world.
One month after being seen on a happy family vacation, Stefani and Rossdale announced their split in 2015. Their 13-year relationship ended because Rossdale was having an affair with their nanny. They have continued to co-parent since their divorce, and they have both found love again.
7. Ben Affleck And Jennifer Garner
Celebrities need to stop hiring attractive nannies. The nanny struck again when she split up Hollywood's "It"-couple, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner. After ten years of marriage, the couple split because of Affleck's affair despite their comments that they had been separated for unrelated reasons.
Garner and Affleck have three children together, so they have had to co-parent despite their differences. After their split, Garner described her marriage to Ben Affleck as a media circus because they were never left alone.
8. Kristen Stewart And Robert Pattinson
Twihards were broken when this cheating scandal broke. Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson met on the set of Twilight in 2008. Their romance grew through the filming period, and it helped that they played love interests. The couple was teen royalty until KStew broke RPatz and fans' hearts.
While filming Snow White and the Huntsmen in 2012, KStew was seen kissing the director, Rupert Sanders. Although they got back together and broke up many times, their love was not meant to last, and they eventually went their separate ways.
9. Iggy Azalea And Nick Young
Iggy Azalea has had her fair share of relationship woes in the media, but her and Nick Young's breakup was the most memorable. In March 2016, a video of Iggy's former fiance was leaked where he admitted to cheating on her, which must have been a shocking way for the rapper to find out.
Iggy took to Twitter after the scandal broke and thanked Young's teammate for filming the encounter. After two years together, the couple called off their engagement for obvious reasons, and we bet some of her songs were about his cheating ways.
10. Kendra Wilkinson And Hank Baskett
Former playmate Kendra Wilkinson found herself in the limelight once she started dating NFL player Hank Baskett. Their relationship seemed picture-perfect, and they even had their own reality show. But after a few years, their names were in the headlines for all the wrong reasons.
When Wilkinson was eight months pregnant with their son when Baskett cheated on her, and the drama played out on their show. They tried to reconcile because of their soon-to-be-born child, but in 2019 they ended their marriage.
11. Demi Moore And Ashton Kutcher
We would be lying if we said we were sad that these two ended their relationship. Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher might have been a power couple back in the early 2000s, but that didn't stop Kutcher from cheating on Moore with Scott Eastwood's former girlfriend.
The couple got divorced in 2013, and Kutcher finally got together with his soulmate Mila Kunis. While this couple's bombshell was broadcast for the world, it ended up working out for both of them, and it just proves that everything happens for a reason.
12. Eva Longoria And Tony Parker
Eva Longoria and Tony Parker were married from 2007 till 2011 when rumors started to surface that the basketball player was keeping another woman on the sidelines. They filed for divorce, stating "irreconcilable differences" was the cause, and cheating is definitely something you can't solve.
To make matters worse, the woman Parker was cheating with was his teammate's wife, so two marriages were ruined in this scandal. Thankfully, they have both moved on and found happiness with other people. Longoria recently welcomed a son with her new husband.
13. Arnold Schwarzenegger And Maria Shriver
Who else remembers exactly what they were doing when the bombshell dropped that Arnold Schwarzenegger had an affair with his housekeeper and fathered a child? The affair occurred in 1996, but the secret didn't come to light until 2011.
Apparently, the family went on vacation, but Schwarzenegger stayed behind because he was filming a movie. How this secret was kept in the dark for 15 years is a mystery, but the couple soon divorced after the news. They were married for more than 25 years.
14. Sandra Bullock And Jesse James
We all knew Sandra Bullock could do much better than Jesse James, but it took a cheating scandal for her to realize that. James cheated on Bullock with a stripper who had the words "Pray for us sinners" tattooed on her forehead. No, we can't make this up.
Shockingly, the allegations only got worse after that. Photos of James came out showing him in Nazi clothing, and many of his ex-employees shared their anti-Semitic experiences. Bullock rightfully divorced James and moved on to better things like adopting her son.
15. Tiger Woods And Elin Nordegren
This had to be one of the biggest cheating scandals of the 2000s. In 2009, the National Inquirer broke the story that Woods had been cheating on Elin Nordegren with a nightclub promoter. Once this news broke, more women came out talking about their affairs with the pro-golfer.
Woods's cheating ways lead to him losing all of his sponsors, and he was shunned from the golfing world for a while. Interestingly, his cheating scandal cost him his career for a brief period, but this happens with pro athletes all the time, and they continue to earn millions.
16. Jennifer Aniston And Brad Pitt
Most people remember the on-screen chemistry between Brangelina in Mr. & Mrs. Smith, but people tend to forget that he was actually married to Jennifer Aniston at the time. After the movie, Brangelina took their romance into the real world, and the media treated Aniston like a scorned woman.
While Aniston was dealing with the press and fall out of her relationship, Pitt was basking in the glory of his new high-profile marriage. However, now that Brangelina is officially over, will there be a reconciliation of Pitt and Aniston? Probably not, but one could only dream.
17. Jude Law And Sienna Miller
In 2005, Jude Law sent gossip columnists into a frenzy when he admitted to cheating on Sienna Miller, his then-fiance. Law released a statement saying, "Following the reports, I just want to say I am deeply ashamed and upset that I’ve hurt Sienna and the people most close to us."
Law publicly apologized to Miller, but there was no saving their relationship. Once you have an affair with the nanny, it is nearly impossible to reconcile the issues. At least he came clean about the affair, unlike some other people on this list.
18. Sophia Bush And Chad Michael Murray
Sophia Bush and Chad Michael Murray first started out as castmates on One Tree Hill, and fans went wild to find out they were dating in real life. They even got married while filming the show, but their marriage only lasted for five short months because Murray cheated with Paris Hilton.
Unfortunately, they still had to film the show together while going through a divorce. That must have been extremely awkward for the rest of the cast and crew. While we thought they were a match made in heaven, we turned out to be wrong.
19. Halsey And G-Eazy
Halsey and G-Eazy were the musical power couple for a hot minute in 2017 when they started dating. They even released "Him & I" together, which topped the pop charts. However, in 2018, Halsey tweeted and deleted a scissor emoji, which fans speculated meant that G-Eazy had cheated.
Months after the tweet, Halsey confirmed the fan theory on SNL when she put G-Eazy on blast during her performance with a backdrop of G-Eazy's message that read, "Sorry Ashley (her real name), I cheated." It also listed all the places where the infidelity happened. Can you say awkward?
20. Olivia Culpo And Danny Amendola
Danny Amendola and Olivia Culpo were truly a gorgeous couple and we can only imagine what their babies would have looked like, but we will never know because they broke up. Amendola was seen canoodling with another woman, and then he had the audacity to rant about Culpo on social media.
Amendola went on a rant stating Culpo was fake and toxic. He truly looked like the losing party in this situation because Culpo responded by confirming his affair and moving on with her life. That's what we call a classy and mature woman.
21. Dennis Quaid And Meg Ryan
Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan got divorced in 2000, and rumors started to swirl that it was because of her budding relationship with Russel Crowe. Eight years after their divorce, Ryan came forward to set the record straight about why they really ended their marriage
Ryan said Quaid was unfaithful for a long time, and it was painful for her to deal with, but she ended up finding out even more once they divorced. While Quaid was unhappy that she came forward to confirm allegations, she wanted to speak her truth and lay it out for everyone to know.
22. Kourtney Kardashian And Scott Disick
Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick have had a confusing relationship for the past decade or so. Despite having three children together, the couple split in 2016 because photos were released of Disick getting cozy with another woman in France while dating Kourtney.
Since their breakup, Disick and Kardashian have remained close because they co-parent their children. They have joked that they will get back together, but they are both currently in relationships. Although we would love to see them get married, we don't think it will happen any time soon.
23. Cardi B And Offset
In 2018, Cardi B and her husband Offset announced their separation after just a year of marriage. At first, Cardi said they fell out of love, but then a woman came forward to say that Offset actually cheated, and that was the real reason for their breakup.
Despite the separation, they remained close and got back together. Cardi said she wanted to work things out with Offset instead of breaking up so quickly, especially for their daughter's sake. She also said she was not an innocent party in the situation, so they were both to blame for the initial split.
24. Noah Cyrus And Lil Xan
We still aren't 100 percent sure that Noah Cyrus cheated on Lil Xan, but he is confident about it. In September 2018, Xan posted an Instagram (that has since been deleted) saying he felt like he was being cheated on and it was hurtful.
Cyrus responded in an Instagram live denying the allegations and said he was the one who cheated. It is a he-said-she-said situation, and no one knows what really happened. Whatever the case, they are both young, and they have lots of time to find love.
25. Brittney Spears And David Lucado
Britney Spears can't thank her dad for many things, but she can say that he saved her from at least one scandal. In 2014, Britney's dad bought photos that were being sold of her boyfriend David Lucado making out with another woman.
Spears then broke up with Lucado and tweeted, "Ahh, the single life!" A month later, during one of her Las Vegas shows, she brought up his infidelity by telling the audience, "The best thing about your boyfriend cheating on you is that you get to go on another first date." Preach, Britney. Preach.
26. Lindsay Lohan And Egor Tarabasov
While we haven't seen Lindsay Lohan in many long-term relationships besides her one with the courtroom, this was an interesting match. In 2016, Lohan and Egor Tarabasov announced their engagement, and one night in a series of now-deleted social media posts, she accused him of cheating.
Lohan said Tarabasov cheated on her with a hooker. She also said that he was physically abusive, but she felt bad about tagging the alleged hooker in her tweet. Is anyone really surprised that it didn't work out?
27. Chris Brown And Karrueche Tran
Chris Brown isn't known for having positive relationships with women, and his relationship with Karrueche Tran is no different. Shortly after he was charged with two felonies for beating Rihanna, the pair started dating, but things didn't end well for the couple.
Not only was Chris Brown hanging out with Rihanna (Gasp!) behind Tran's back, but he also fathered a child with another woman while they were together. After the two broke up, Tran filed a restraining order against Brown because she said he was beating her and sending threats.
28. Robert Kardashian And Blac Chyna
Like father like son. Just like his father, Robert Kardashian Jr. was also cheated on by his former fiance, Blac Chyna. Their breakup was probably the messiest thing we have seen on reality tv, but you bet your bottom dollar we were eating all the drama up.
During their breakup, Rob posted revenge porn of Blac Chyna and got banned from Instagram. He also posted messages proving Chyna cheated on him and said he remained loyal the entire relationship. These two were not meant to be, but they do share a daughter.
29. Laura Dern And Billy Bob Thornton
In case you forgot (because we did), in 1999, Laura Dern was engaged to Billy Bob Thornton. However, despite their engagement, Thornton decided to go off and marry Angelina Jolie. It seems like she has had her hand in many breakups, but this was the biggest twist of events.
Dern explained that she left to film a movie, and while she was gone her supposed-to-be fiance got married to another woman and she never heard from him again. Was Thornton confused about who he proposed to or is he just a bad guy? The whole thing sounds awful.
30. Kylie Jenner And Travis Scott
While this scandal was never confirmed, it is possible that there was a reason Travis Scott and Kylie Jenner broke up in 2019. In March 2019, TMZ reported that Jenner accused Scott of cheating. Scott's reps denied the rumors, but he still deleted his entire Instagram.
It was also reported that Scott flew across the country to makeup with Jenner. However, the two have not gotten back together since. They are always seen together because they still love each other and share their daughter Stormi.
31. Kevin Hart And Eniko Parrish
Kevin Hart often talks about his wife in his stand-up comedy specials. In 2017, Hart said he cheated on Eniko Parrish in an Instagram video after being blackmailed with explicit content. He said, "You know, I’m not perfect. I’m not going to sit up here and say that I am or claim to be in any way shape or form."
Hart went on to say that he made a bad judgment call, and he was working with Parrish to fix things in their marriage. He also said he would not let someone get financial gain from his mistakes, which is why he publicly fessed up and apologized to his wife. They have since worked through this problem.
32. Jaime Bergman And David Boreanaz
After marrying Jaime Bergman in 2001, David Boreanaz was another celebrity who was blackmailed because of his affair. After nine years of marriage, Boreanaz came clean about his infidelities, saying he had a relationship with another woman, and it was a huge mistake.
Boreanaz said the woman asked for money, and he felt like he was being extorted, so he came clean and wanted to work on his marriage with Bergman. Luckily for him, they worked through their problems and are still married today.
33. Tori Spelling And Dean McDermott
While Christmas is supposed to be a joyous time, it was the worst holiday for Tori Spelling in 2013 because news broke that Dean McDermott was cheating on her with his co-star Emily Goodhand. Many of their marital problems played out on Spelling's reality show.
Years later, McDermott explained, he cheated not because of problems with Spelling but because of his own inadequacies. He needed to do it for some kind of power, and he regretted his mistakes. The couple worked through the shocking scandal and are still married.
34. Jay-Z And Beyonce
Although it is unfortunate that Jay-Z cheated on Beyonce, without that scandal, we wouldn't have Lemonade. While neither of them has ever commented on the affair, Beyonce's 2016 album told us everything we needed to know.
Beyonce's album explained that Jay-Z cheated, she was beyond pissed about it, but they were working through their issues. Sadly, none of us will ever know the true identity of "Becky with the good hair," but it's probably for the best.
35. Khloe Kardashian And Lamar Odom
After knowing each other for just a few weeks, Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom got engaged and planned their wedding in just nine days. Although they seemed strong, things started falling apart when Odom cheated on her, later blaming it on his sex addiction.
Kardashian said Odom was so good at hiding his affairs and making her feel like she was the only one. In an interview, she said that he would communicate with girls on his assistant's phone, and the whole situation was humiliating because it went on throughout their entire marriage.
36. Tristan Thompson And Khloe Kardashian (Again)
Khloe Kardashian can't catch a break with these cheating men. In a scandal that played out on Keeping Up with the Kardashians just days before Khloe gave birth, her baby daddy Tristan Thompson cheated on her not once, not twice, but thrice (at least), and one of the times was with Kylie Jenner's former best friend.
It was sad to watch Khloe go through such challenging times, but after co-parenting and working on their relationship, it seems like Tristan has really made improvements, and they might be back together. We will have to wait until the final season of KUWTK airs to find out.
37. Wendy Williams And Kevin Hunter
In perfect 2020 fashion, Wendy Williams filed for divorce from her husband of more than 20 years. Kevin Hunter admitted to cheating on the talk show host, and he fathered a child with his mistress. He released a statement apologizing for the affair, but it was too late.
His statement also apologized to Williams' fans because they probably attacked him on social media. Hunter said he was trying to correct his actions and grow from this situation. You could see her struggling with the divorce during episodes of her talk show where her behavior was manic, to say the least.
38. Hugh Grant And Elizabeth Hurley
In 1995, while Hugh Grant was supposed to be dating Elizabeth Hurley, he got arrested for "lewd conduct" with a sex worker. That has got to be an awkward call to make to your girlfriend - unless she found out in the news - we don't know what is worse.
In an interview with Jay Leno, Grant said that the papers were wrong in stating that Hurley was upset because they worked it out. The couple stayed together for five years after the incident before splitting. Somehow, they remained friends even after their breakup.
39. Brandi Glanville And Eddie Cibrian
If you are an OG Real Housewives of Beverly Hills fan, you have heard all about Brandi Glanville's side of her divorce from Eddie Cibrian. After cheating on her with LeAnn Rimes, the tabloids went crazy, and so did Glanville. Both Cibrian and Rimes left their partners to marry each other, which was added fuel to the fire.
Surprisingly, Rimes and Cibrian first met while on a double date with their previous partners. Glanville said the entire night, Rimes was flirting with Cibrian instead of acknowledging her own husband. Cibrian tried to convince Glanville that she was paranoid, but her instincts were right.
40. Prince Charles And Princess Diana
In one of the most famous cheating scandals of all time, Prince Charles cheated on Princess Diana with Camilla Parker Bowles throughout their entire marriage. He allegedly even gave Camilla a personalized bracelet just days before his wedding to Diana.
The late Princess Diana once said, "there were three of us in that marriage, and it just became too crowded." In 1994, Charles admitted to the affair, and two years later, they divorced. It caused a media circus because of their status, which ultimately led to Diana's tragic death.
41. Britney Spears And Justin Timberlake
While most people always wished this couple would work out, they sadly broke things off after Britney Spears allegedly cheated on Justin Timberlake while they were dating. Timberlake's "Cry Me A River" features a Spears lookalike, and the song is about cheating.
In his memoir, Timberlake wrote that he felt hurt and decided to translate his feelings into something people could listen to. People could relate to the song, and it was a success. Spears also said in an interview, "I’m not technically saying he’s wrong, but I’m not technically saying he’s right either."
42. Blake Shelton And Miranda Lambert
The country power couple broke fans' hearts in 2015 when they announced their divorce. Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert never confirmed this rumor, but some people think they split because Lambert cheated. Shelton hinted at it in a tweet.
Coincidentally, Lambert started dating the man she was accused of cheating with shortly after the divorce. After two years, they broke up, and Lambert dated someone married, and Shelton tweeted, "Been taking the high road for a long time. I almost gave up. But I can finally see something on the horizon up there!! Wait!! Could it be?! Yep!! It’s karma!!" The shade of it all!
43. Fergie And Josh Duhamel
Although both parties deny this rumor, we can't help but believe there is some truth to it. Fergie and Josh Duhamel ended their ten-year marriage after it was alledged that Duhamel cheated on her with an exotic dancer. The woman even came forward and passed a lie detector test to prove it was true.
Duhamel's reps said the woman must have been paid a lot of money for this false story. Fergie also said the event made their love for each other stronger, but not strong enough to keep their marriage together, apparently.
44. Bella Thorne And Mod Sun
It seems like the former Disney star has bounced from one relationship to the next in the past few years. Bella Thorne and Mod Sun's breakup was pretty messy because she left things at his house and tried to break in to retrieve her belongings, but Mod Sun called the cops on her.
Mod Sun also said in an interview that Thorne cheated on him, but he was faithful to her. She never commented on the situation, but we are sure her ex, Tana Mongeau, had a storytime YouTube video dedicated to it.
45. Uma Thurman And Ethan Hawke
When Uma Thurman and Ethan Hawke divorced in 2005, Thurman told her side of the story to Oprah. At the time, there were cheating rumors in the tabloids, so Thurman wanted to set the record straight. She said there were problems toward the end of their marriage and hinted that Hawke did cheat.
In 2013, Hawke made shocking statements about monogamy and fidelity, stating, "People have such a childish view of monogamy and fidelity. ‘He’s cheated so he’s bad, she’s cheated, so she’s bad,’ as opposed to a recognition that our species is not monogamous." It seems like an excuse because he cheated.
