Mystical MET Gala: Couples and the Curse of Separated Paths
The MET Gala, renowned for its dazzling glamor and high-fashion spectacle, harbors a swirling rumor of a “curse,” particularly affecting couples who pose on its iconic stairs. Celebrities often claim to experience unfortunate splits soon after the event, stirring online chatter about their romantic fates being entwined with this legendary curse.
Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson kicked off this trend when they attended the 2022 Gala; despite their palpable chemistry, they parted ways later that year, citing long-distance challenges. Similarly, ‘Riverdale’ stars Lili Reinhart and Cole Sprouse attended the Gala in 2019, but less than a year later, they announced their breakup, attributing their split primarily to differing paths rather than the infamous stairs.
Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth’s romance followed a tumultuous path after their 2019 appearance, with their marriage swiftly deteriorating into divorce the same year—bolstering the curse’s reputation. Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik also experienced the curse, breaking up in 2021 after a history of on-and-off romances that intensified post their 2016 Gala appearance.
Selena Gomez and The Weeknd shared a brief relationship after posing together in 2017, but the ensuing breakup in October left fans questioning the curse’s potency. Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott, on the other hand, maintained an on-and-off relationship beginning in 2017, only to again split after their 2018 outing at the Gala.
Even newly engaged couples like Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez were not immune, ending their relationship several years later. From Shawn Mendes to Phoebe Bridgers, many more high-profile couples have been claimed by this curious phenomenon.
As whispers of the curse continue to grow, one must wonder: is it simply coincidence, or does the MET Gala carry an unbreakable spell over romances?
