2026 has also ushered in other high profile celebrity breakups, like Margaret Qualley and Jack Antonoff (a Qualley source told PEOPLE that the couple is “figuring things out” amid the split), Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater (she has since reconnected with her ex, Ricky Alvarez), Sue Bird and Megan Rapinoe (lesbians around the world were devastated) and Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson, just to name a few. Each of these breakups made headlines (for various reasons) and caused our timelines to speculate, rage, mourn, or all three. It’s natural to be upset when a couple you think you know — or one you were simply rooting hard for — breaks up. When it comes to Nic and Olandria, they have a very specific microscope on their relationship, and the amount of parasocial obsession with their love story seemed to reach heights the internet had never seen. There are the “contract is up!” people who think they were never really dating in the first place, the “love is dead!” camp who pinned all their romantic hopes on the duo, and the “I don’t believe it” folks who are living in denial that PEOPLE magazine is a celeb-friendly source often used by publicists as an unofficial “official” way to get news to the public. It’s safe to say that Nicolandria is done. What’s clear for sure is that everyone has an opinion, and people really care about celebrity breakups.
