Cole Sprouse Speaks About Split With Lili Reinhart
Three months after confirming their split, Riverdale star Cole Sprouse is now talking about his split with co-star Lili Reinhart.
Page Six reports that Sprouse talked about the breakup in more detail on his Instagram, revealing that the relationship had already ended in March, two months before their May announcement. Before the “permanent” separation in March, Sprouse says he and Reinhart had already separated in January.
Despite the separation, Sprouse said in his post that the relationship was an incredible experience and that the opportunity to fall in love was something that he would cherish. Sprouse also wished Reinhart “utmost love and happiness” in her own life.
E! Online notes that Sprouse addressing the split with Reinhart comes after she shared her own thoughts on the breakup in an interview. In the interview, Reinhart said she was driven to write her poetry book Swimming Lessons because of her fear that people would come up with their own ideas of what her love life looked like.
The interview made some people speculate that Sprouse had cheated on Reinhart because the actress insisted that she felt betrayed by a boyfriend. However, Reinhart quickly dismissed those claims, saying she was talking about her depression rather than a boyfriend or previous relationship.
Before confirming their breakup last May, there were rumors from last year that alleged the couple had separated. Reinhart denied the rumors and warned her fans about believing everything they read on the internet.
In April of this year, allegations that Sprouse had cheated on Reinhart with Kaia Gerber began to surface. The breakup rumors were further fueled by the fact that Sprouse and Reinhart were not quarantining together when the lockdown was being implemented in the United States due to the global coronavirus pandemic.
Sprouse and Reinhart’s breakup is one of the more amicable ones to hit the headlines. Just recently, Star Wars actor Ewan McGregor had to split half of the royalties he earned from film and television appearances with his ex-wife Eve Mavrakis as part of their divorce settlement.
Amber Heard and Johnny Depp are also engaged in an “incredibly painful” libel suit, following an already contentious divorce that resulted in Heard getting a $7 million settlement.
In the libel suit, Heard has been labeled by Depp’s lawyers as a “compulsive liar” and unfaithful. Heard’s alleged threesome with Elon Musk and Cara Delevingne was also brought up, with both Heard and Musk denying the allegation.
Heard has called the trial a waste of British taxpayer money and said it has exposed traumatic details of her relationship with Depp.
