Yes, you heard it right. The power couple has broken up. Jeffree Star, 34, and Nathan Schwandt have gone separate ways after 5 years of relationship. Jeffree confirmed the rumours of their breakup in an emotional YouTube video.

The video uploaded by Star on his YouTube channel on 11th January turned people’s worst fears real. The video, titled, “We broke up,” has Star sitting on his king-size pink bed, holding a brown teddy bear in one hand surrounded by his Pomeranian dogs.

He started the video on an emotional tone saying he doesn’t know how to start the intro. He’d never thought that this day would come where he’d be sitting there talking about it, he started. Star admitted with teary eyes that it took him ten times to get through the opening without crying and that he is a “few weeks” into the split.

He clarified that he has used the time of silence to just try to heal. The news of their breakup had started going around in the later part of the last year but they remain tight-lipped about it. The American famous makeup artist further said that they are both in a state of shock. He is devastated. He is so sad. And that is the reason behind him stepping back from recent professional engagements.

While Star didn’t reveal the cause of the split, he did say he doesn’t have any ill will towards his ex. “This isn’t like an internet fight. This isn’t drama. This isn’t tea.” “This is my real life and me and my soul mate are really going through it,” he said.

Talking about Schwandt, Star spoke that Schwandt the only man who was confident to love him publicly, to love him for him fully with all his flaws. He touched the subject of their friends and family trying to sell-out their breakup story to make some money from it, talking about it, he said that he doesn’t even know how to process that. They are heartbroken there, dealing with their emotions, dealing with things behind the scenes and off-camera, and there are their families trying to tell the media fake stories, and get money out of it.
