Cara Delevingne and Ashley Benson, one of Hollywood’s most favorite power couples has decided to break up. According to People, the supermodel and the actress parted ways back in April as “the relationship had just run its course,” a source said.

Rumors that Delevingne, 27, and Benson, 30, were dating first started flying around after they were photographed kissing at London’s Heathrow Airport in August 2018. The couple met while filming the movie, Her Smell, and after being spotted being romantic together in London, a month later, Benson confirmed the rumors on Instagram.

Benson commented “mine” on one of the model’s photo and they’ve been seemingly going strong ever since. On Benson’s birthday, Delevingne posted a lengthy tribute on Instagram to her girlfriend of nearly two years. She wrote:

“There is so much I could say but something I love and cherish most about us is that I don’t need to because YOU KNOW and that’s all that matters. It’s you and me which is my favourite. My safe place. You let me be silly, you let me be wild, you keep me free, secure and curious. I feel like I’ve known you my entire life and I am so proud of watching you grow into the woman that you always dreamt of being. I love you beyond words my sprinkles, choonchi, angel face, grumpy ass, sweet cheeks, never boring, buttmunch, Benson.”

On Valentine’s Day, Delevingne captioned the loving picture of the couple kissing on a balcony with the caption, “A kiss with a cause. This Valentine’s Day when you share a photo of you and a loved one— a significant other, a friend, a pet—you can also raise awareness and help create a future with more survivors thanks to @su2c #KissCancerGoodbye campaign.”

While the couple was photographed at Milan Fashion Week in late February, amid the coronavirus outbreak, Delevingne and Benson have not been seen quarantining together. Instead, Delevingne has been hanging out with friends like fellow model Kaia Gerber, actress Margaret Qualley, and her sister, Rainey Qualley.


Delevingne and Benson Rumored To Have Briefly Broken Up In December 2019

In early December, Delevingne sent out a cryptic tweet with the following message, “Me and Ashley broke up,” and users online were instantly heartbroken to find out that she and actress Ashley Benson had called it quits. However, they were also super surprised, as it seemed out of character for the model to inform the world of their break-up via a blunt tweet.

Even though the “break-up tweet” was only up for 20 minutes on the evening of December 9, fans of the couple hoped and prayed that the Carnival Row actress and Benson were still together. Rumors continued to swirl even after the tweet was deleted, and neither Benson nor Delevingne followed up with an explanation or message about the mysterious tweet.

The next day, however, the Pretty Little Liars actress thankfully put all the breakup rumors to bed via Instagram. On December 10, Benson shared a series of photos from Germany with friends Toni and Sarah with the caption, “I love Christmas. Berlin. Gluhwein. And these two.”

Since Delevingne was not in the photos, a user online commented, “Did you break up with Cara?” from which Benson replied, “Nope.”
