Despite their split, sources close to the pair emphasize that the breakup was amicable, leaving fans wondering what’s next for the supermodel and the actor.
The Breakup: A Friendly Farewell
The couple quietly ended their relationship at the close of 2024. Butler was notably absent during the Gerber family’s New Year’s vacation in Mexico, where Kaia was seen spending time with her parents, Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber, as well as her brother and his girlfriend.
Sources confirm that the split was amicable and free of drama. Despite their separation, the pair continues to hold mutual respect for one another.
A Love Story in the Spotlight
Kaia, 23, and Austin, 33, began dating in December 2021 and made their relationship public in March 2022 during a W Magazine party. The couple turned heads at the Met Gala 2022, where their affectionate display—including a sweet kiss on the red carpet—cemented their status as a power couple.
Kaia often supported Austin during his award season run in 2023, where he was nominated for Best Actor at the Oscars for his role as Elvis Presley in the biopic Elvis. Together, they attended high-profile events, radiating chemistry and glamour.
Past Relationships
Before dating Butler, Kaia had relationships with Pete Davidson and Euphoria star Jacob Elordi. Meanwhile, Austin was famously linked to actress Vanessa Hudgens, with whom he shared an eight-year romance before parting ways in 2020.
Kaia Gerber: More Than Just a Supermodel
Born in 2001, Kaia is the youngest child of Cindy Crawford, following in her mother’s iconic footsteps. She began her modeling career at the age of 16 and quickly ascended to supermodel status, becoming one of the most sought-after faces in the fashion industry.
Kaia has graced the pages of Vogue numerous times and walked for major fashion houses like Marc Jacobs, Burberry, Alexander Wang, Prada, Chanel, Fendi, and Miu Miu. She has also starred in campaigns for Daisy by Marc Jacobs, Miu Miu eyewear, and Omega watches.
In 2018, Kaia collaborated with Karl Lagerfeld to create the KarlxKaia collection and won the Model of the Year award at the Fashion Awards the same year.
Beyond the Runway
For his part, Austin Butler has transitioned from a Disney Channel star to a critically acclaimed actor. His performance in Elvis was a career-defining moment, earning him global recognition and multiple award nominations.
While his relationship with Kaia added a layer of intrigue to his personal life, Butler’s focus on his craft and his ability to embody complex characters continue to set him apart in Hollywood.
As Kaia and Austin move forward separately, fans of both stars are left to speculate about their futures. Will Kaia deepen her presence in acting? Will Austin take on more challenging roles following the success of Elvis?
Though their romance has ended, their individual stories are far from over. Both Kaia Gerber and Austin Butler remain icons in their own right, and the next chapters of their lives promise to be as compelling as ever.
For now, the world watches and waits.
