It really does feel like 2016 is the year true love died. But c'mon: This isn't Hollywood's first rodeo. Celebrity couples have been making up and breaking up for as long as we can remember. This too shall pass. Yes, even Brangelina.
Remember when Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder split up and you thought you'd never recover? You did. You survived Jen and Brad, Britney and Justin, and that whole "conscious uncoupling" malarkey.
You also made it through the 30 celebrity breakups featured here. Hell, most of them you probably don't even recall now, even though they seemed like a big deal at the time and you were momentarily crushed. Then, the folks involved started dating other famous people and your attention shifted. It's the circle of life.
Marvel at how resilient you are while scrolling the couples that once were. Ah, young love...
Joey Lawrence & Katherine Heigl
A pre- Grey's Anatomy Heigl dated the Blossom star for a hot minute back in 1994, gushing to Seventeen about him being the "first guy I've ever really, really liked." Whoa.

The couple of nearly six years split in 1995. Just after the breakup, the Friends star called the romance "the most important relationship I've ever had" in an interview with People .

The former teen actors briefly dated after playing love interests in the 2001 film Get Over It . Foster just announced his engagement to actress Laura Prepon.

The "Uptown Funk" hitmaker and Angie Tribeca actress got engaged in 2003, but split about a year later. Jones also dated Tobey Maguire in the late '90s, which means she probably has some excellent Leo DiCaprio anecdotes.

The Home Fries co-stars were a couple from 1996 to 1999 and have remained pals since. Wilson even scored a role as Cameron Diaz's love interest in the Charlie's Angels films, as did his brother, Andrew.

Before Ryan and Eva (and even Ryan and Rachel), it was Ryan and Sandra. The actors dated after working on 2002's Murder by Numbers .

Fans of '00s teen horror flicks were no doubt delighted when Hewitt and Kennedy, then co-starring on Ghost Whisperer , paired up from March 2009 to March 2010.

Theron and the Third Eye Blind frontman split up in 2001 after three years of dating. The actress reportedly inspired the song "Never Let You Go," so we can all thank her for that one.

Portman starred in her then-beau's video for "Carmensita" in 2007, but the pair were over by fall 2008.

Mayer later referred to Simpson, whom he dated from 2006 to 2007, as "sexual napalm." Thanks for sharing, creep.

Remember when these two were peak #indiecouplegoals? The New Girl star once revealed that she first dated Schwartzman at age 19, then reunited a few years later, thanks to Dustin Hoffman. Alas, they're now both married to other people.

Carrie Bradshaw and Iron Man dated from 1984 to 1991, when Downey's drug battle split them up.

There's not a lot of love lost between these stars, who dated briefly in 2003. Fox has insinuated that the rapper is gay, prompting him to shade their sexual encounters as well as her recent stint on Empire .

The Good Will Hunting co-stars were going strong until Damon publicly dumped her on Oprah a few months after the film's 1997 release.
"We split up very publicly that April, which was grim, and it turned from this beautiful thing into something so dark," Driver has written of the romance . "I'm always really sad that we didn't stay friends, because it was absolutely incandescent making that film."

Before there was Madonna, there was Lady Cora. Downton Abbey star McGovern got engaged to Penn after starring in 1984's Racing with the Moon , but they never made it down the aisle.

The Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps co-stars dated from August 2009 to October 2010. Mulligan is now married to Marcus Mumford of Mumford & Sons and has a daughter. LaBeouf and Mia Goth recently had a commitment ceremony in Las Vegas.

The former Weeds stars got engaged in 2008, but split soon after. Maybe they realised monogramming their towels with all of those names would be too pricey?

Playing an uncle and niece on Heroes didn't stop these two from dating from December 2007 to February 2009.

Everwood 's on-screen sibs dated from 2004 to 2006. Just a tad awkward.

Hudson dated her You, Me and Dupree co-star after splitting from husband Chris Robinson in 2006. The pair were on-and-off for a year or so.

It's hard to imagine Blunt without John Krasinski by her side, but she was once blown away by Bublé. She dated the Canadian singer for three years before splitting in July 2008.

The Break-Up ironically brought its two stars together. Aniston has since credited Vaughn, whom she dated from 2005 to 2006, for helping her bounce back from her divorce.

Nicole Richie's husband used to be Lizzie McGuire's main man. Duff was just 16 when she began her two-year relationship with the then-25-year-old rocker back in 2004.

Diaz and Leto got engaged in 2000, but broke off their four-year relationship in 2003. Leto's mother, Constance, ended up attending the actress' wedding to Benji Madden in 2015.

Canada's former golden couple began dating in 2002, got engaged in 2004, and broke up in 2007.

The future Mr. Grey was once best known for being the underwear model dating Keira Knightley, whom he wooed from 2003 to 2005.

Frankly, there are few female celebrities Valderamma hasn't dated. In addition to Mandy Moore, Minka Kelly, and Demi Lovato, he romanced the Mean Girls star back in 2004.

If you want to see the tennis star clam up about her taste in men, watch Venus and Serena . The documentary includes a scene in which her training partner teases her about dating white men, referencing former flame Ratner, whom Serena romanced in the mid-2000s.

After unceremoniously dumping Minnie Driver, Damon moved on to Winona Ryder. The stars dated for two years after reportedly being introduced by Gwyneth Paltrow, who was then the girlfriend of one Ben Affleck.

Zellweger and her Cold Mountain co-star dated for two years before calling it quits in 2004. Just months later, she eloped with country singer Kenny Chesney, though the marriage lasted just five months. It was a very exciting time.
