In April 2023, Glen Powell, known for his role in Top Gun, and his girlfriend Gigi Paris, a model, ended their relationship, a journey that began in 2019. As we look back, the couple's relationship evolved under the Hollywood spotlight, marked by its ups and downs.
The challenges of long-distance and work commitments
The couple's relationship faced its share of trials, especially with Powell's demanding filming schedule. A source close to the couple told PEOPLE, "They had been on the rocks since Top Gun came out. Gigi was never happy with the long distance filming." This challenge became more pronounced during Powell's time in Australia for Anyone But You, leading to their final breakup.
Speculation about Powell's on-set chemistry with co-star Sydney Sweeney added to the relationship's complexities. However, sources dismissed these rumours, emphasizing the professional nature of Powell and Sweeney's interactions. "It's just their job. They're friends that met on set. They're co-stars," a second insider clarified.
