With celebrity relationships come celebrity breakups.

Each year, fans are encapsulated by their favorite stars pairing up and beginning romances, and while some last forever, some also fall apart.

Whether it's amicable, bitter, public, private, divorce or a simple split, stars are not immune to the heartbreak of a relationship ending.

Here's a look at the biggest celebrity breakups of 2021:

JOHN MULANEY AND OLIVIA MUNN'S ROMANCE TIMELINE IS BEING QUESTIONED

One of Hollywood's most famous power couples, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, split up early this year.

Since the early days of their marriage, rumors of strife have plagued the couple, but they seemed to always overcome any issues.

However, in February, the now-41-year-old socialite filed for divorce from her rapper husband. The split seemed amicable enough with the two easily agreeing that Kardashian would keep the Hidden Hills, California home they once shared.

Things got a bit sticky after Kardashian jabbed West, 44, during her "Saturday Night Live" appearance, claiming she divorced him over his "personality."

West has since expressed interest in reconciling their relationship though, Kardashian appears to have since moved on, filing documents to drop West from her name.

They share four children: North, 8, Saint, 5, Chicago, 3, and Psalm, 2.

Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez

Yet another couple that people believed would withstand the test of time was Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez.

However, things fell apart early in the year and the two announced their breakup in April.

The two were engaged to be married and had several joint business ventures together, but have reportedly taken steps to dissolve such partnerships.

The reason for their breakup was never publicly confirmed, but many speculate that it was related to a rumor that Rodriguez had some sort of relationship with "Southern Charm" star Madison LeCroy. He denied the relationship.

Lopez has famously moved on from the pairing and is now dating Ben Affleck, who she previously dated and was once engaged to in the early 2000s.

"Big Bang Theory" alum Kaley Cuoco announced earlier this fall that she and her husband, Karl Cook, would divorce.

"Despite a deep love and respect for one another, we have realized that our current paths have taken us in opposite directions," the two said in a joint statement to Fox News. "We have both shared so much of our journey publicly so while we would prefer to keep this aspect of our personal life private, we wanted to be forthcoming in our truth together. There is no anger or animosity, quite the contrary."  

"We have made this decision together through an immense amount of respect and consideration for one another and request that you do the same in understanding that we will not be sharing any additional details or commenting further," their statement concluded.

The actress' marriage to Cook was her second, as she was previously wed to tennis pro Ryan Sweeting.

"He’s brilliant and witty and funny and sexy. But it doesn’t matter how much we may wish we were birds of a feather - we’re still a duck and a goose."

She went on to thank a media outlet for a "slightly goofy paparazzi shot" that she used to confirm that they were no longer together. She concluded her post by asking for privacy, not for her sake, but for his. 

"As unfiltered as I usually am, this involves someone else’s privacy- so this is all I’ll ever say on the subject," Porizkova wrote.
