Celebrity Breakups: The Splits We Were Not Really Expecting

Marriage and relationships are quite complicated. Just when you start believing in happily ever after, things start falling apart. Whether it is the Brad and Angelina or Hrithik and Suzanne, when the couples split, it left us fans a bit stunned. Check these celebrity couples, who we wish could comeback just about once more.

1. Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes

Two lovely Hollywood sweethearts, one a huge superstar and the other a dove-eyed fairy looking charmer. They were married for 5 years and got divorced in 2012. Apparently, the 'Mission Impossible' star is busy making movies and Katie Holmes has moved on with Jamie Foxx if the rumours are true.

2. Hrithik Roshan and Suzanne Khan

When India's 'Greek God', superstar Hrithik Roshan married Sanjay Khan's daughter, Suzanne, many believed that the communion of childhood sweethearts would go the long mile. But it didn't. Things got apparently messy when completing the shooting of 'Kites' a huge disappointment. It was reported that Hrithik just couldn't get over Latin American beauty, also his co-star from the movie, Barbara Mori. To this day, the former couple don't really see much of each other. Sad indeed!

3. Hugh Grant and Elizabeth Hurley

The 'Notting Hill' charmer moved in with supermodel Hurley at the peak of his movie career in the mid 90s. This was a really good looking and seemingly happy pair. But then who can guarantee if happiness can last long? Soon enough, bitter fights ensued between the once romantic pair and that saw the end of one of Hollywood's most talked about relationships. It is believed that the duo are still 'good friends'. Is that true Hugh?

4. Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston

Long before the leggy lass had heard of Vince Vaughn, there was a certain Brad Pitt, a major Hollywood superstar in the life of the famous 'Friends' actor, Jennifer Aniston. The couple was madly in love back in the 2000s and were even married for five years before splitting in 2005.

5. Sanjay Dutt and Rhea Pillai

This was one cute romantic pair. The deadly Dutt, star of mega Bollywood movies such as "Khalnayak", "Vaastav" and "Rocky" and the cute, petite figured yoga expert, Rhea. They looked as good together as peas and carrots. But their marriage had its fair share of torrential fights and apparently Dutt's unbecoming ways of rubbing the wrong side of the law meant that the good looking marriage had to ultimately end. Their marriage ended in 1998.

6. Tom Hiddleston and Taylor Swift

One an enigmatic country singer and another a versatile actor, best known for his landmark Avenger's role as Loki. The two got together about a couple of years back under the star-studded highs of Hollywood and just when it seemed here was a relationship that was going to last, it didn't, breaking hearts and their own selves nonetheless. It is believed that Tom's outgoing personality and wanting to talk about his girlfriend openly to others was the cause of the split. Taylor, of course, is among the most sensitive and non expressive personalities around.

7. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie

This was one star-studded affair.  A marriage of two ultimate Hollywood superstars that have at least a 100 movies under their belt. Widely regarded in social circles as Brangelina, people just couldn't ever get enough of this amazing Hollywood couple. But alas, many hearts were shattered when the dazzling duo, popular for Mr. and Mrs. Smith and their kid-adopting spree- just broke up after close to a decade of being in a relationship.

8. Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif

No one dares to hurt the true, original 'Bhai'. When Salman wants something, the entire 'kaaynaat' decides to give him and after a very long time, did it seem that Salman had finally found his able match when he would be seen often cozying up to the dazzling scorcher in Katrina Kaif. But a little over two and half years later of first getting together, Kaif and Khan split. But no love was lost in this one. They continue to hold great regard for each other.

9. Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor

For some reason, this relationship just felt right. It seemed that no matter who you were- a movie buff or not- at the first glimpse of this good-looking pair, it just seemed that they got it just right! Or did they actually? Despite both of them having moved on and keeping their equation only at the 'just good friend' level, one certainly hopes if there's something that can bring them together again?

10. David Beckham and Victoria Beckham

A sterling and fabulous pair. Making heads turn wherever they went, David and Victoria were like a house on fire. But even this celebrity marriage between a Football icon and celebrated English Pop singer fizzled out just when it was expected it would go the long way.
