Other times, you're quickly reminded of why you ended things in the first place - no matter how much time has passed. Here's a roundup of times famous couples have gotten back together after breaking up, plus whether or not things worked out the second time around: 1. Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom: SPLIT Lionel Hahn / Getty Images Katy and Orlando's split made headlines earlier this year, but what people might have forgotten is that they actually broke up for a year back in 2017. Steve Granitz / Getty Images Recalling the breakup in 2024, Katy said that she temporarily ended things with Orlando after a year of dating because the pair weren't fully aligned. "He was [in it] because he had just done a huge time of celibacy, and he had set intentions," she said. "And I was fresh out of a relationship, and I was like, I can't do this anymore. I need to swim in a different pond, but I had yet to do a lot of like, real work.""He wasn't playing this cat-mouse game anymore. And I was like, 'This is boring. I'm moving on,'" she added. "I was so used to this push-pull. Because once you have it. I was playing games. It was a dopamine hit." By 2018, Katy and Orlando had reunited - and it seemed that things had only strengthened between them. They got engaged in 2019 and welcomed their daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom, in 2020. However, as we now know, Orlando and Katy sadly parted ways earlier this year. A source claimed that they'd been "suffering through the same problems that have plagued them for years," and struggled to make "time for each other and iron out disagreements."

In December 2015, she notably joined the singer and his family on vacation in Mexico. That same month, the pair were pictured kissing at Leonardo DiCaprio's New Year's Eve party.

"Negative things happened that we still need to talk about and work through," Hailey later told Vogue, adding, "'Fizzled' would not be the right word - it was more like a very dramatic excommunication. There was a period where if I walked into a room, he would walk out." Gilbert Flores / Getty Images Following Justin's reunion with his long-term, on-again, off-again ex, Selena Gomez - which lasted between October 2017 and March 2018 - he and Hailey had rekindled things. She later recalled reuniting with Justin at church, telling Vogue: "By then, we were past the drama. I just gave him a hug. By the end of the conference, he was like, 'We're not going to be friends.' I was like, 'We're not?'" Cassy Athena / Getty Images Just a month after rekindling their romance, Justin and Hailey were engaged. And two months later, they were married!While the pair have certainly had their ups and downs in recent years, they remain married and are now parents to a little boy named Jack Blues Bieber. 3. Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth: SPLIT Jon Kopaloff / Getty Images Way back in 2010, Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth first started dating after meeting on the set of The Last Song.

Miley ended up explaining that she and Liam had partly rekindled "from a place of trauma" and were "trying to rebuild" as quickly as they could. Jennifer Graylock - Pa Images / Getty Images 4. Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade: STILL TOGETHER Amy Sussman / Getty Images Roughly three years into their relationship, Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade split in 2013. Gabrielle recalled the following year, "When Dwyane and I broke up briefly in 2013, it was because of distance and scheduling. I finished filming [Being Mary Jane], then I flew to Vegas right away to start shooting Think Like a Man Too. I couldn't take time off, and I missed some quality togetherness we desperately needed ... Moving forward, I decided my work schedule has to make sense for our family."
