On Feb. 18 — a day after Elon Musk and Australian actress Natasha Bassett were snapped deplaning from his private jet in Los Angeles together — HollywoodLife reported that, according to a source, the duo have been "dating for a couple of months" and are "in a monogamous relationship." Said the source, "They are very much into each other and have been spending a tremendous amount of time together." Meanwhile, a source told The Mail on Sunday that Elon and Natasha have been seeing each other "for some time." Said the insider, "They were friends first and only became romantic after he split with Grimes. [Natasha is] gorgeous and could have her pick of men but says she adores Elon because he's so smart and interesting to be around. … Natasha has been working hard on her career and while Elon is chilled that their relationship is public, he's very supportive of her wish to become famous in her own right, not just as Elon's girlfriend." The Space X and Tesla founder revealed in September 2021 that he'd split from Grimes. He also previously dated actress Amber Heard and was married to actress Talulah Riley.

During an interview with "Extra" that debuted online on Feb. 22, Jana Kramer said that she and her new boyfriend, Ian Schinelli, are "kinda past the honeymoon phase" in their relationship and "getting into, like, the real-life stuff and just seeing if it works for each other." (Recently, there have been whispers online that the singer-actress and her beau had quietly called it quits already.) Explained the "One Tree Hill" alum, "I'm just kind of, like, in this moment for me today, I'm having fun. If it doesn't serve me tomorrow, figure it out. I have two beautiful kids. I don't need to be in a relationship… I'm by no means putting any pressure or feel like I have to settle like before." Speaking of "before," Jana shared her biggest regret stemming from her relationship with her ex-husband, Mike Caussin: "I wish I would have left a lot sooner, knowing everything I know now… Who was next to me was not actually that person, so I would never want to stay with that person, it was just the idea of who I thought he was," she said. "The affairs to me is not what ruined our marriage. It was the lying. … If my new boyfriend wants to cheat on me, that would suck, but I can't control it." On Feb. 25, Jana made headlines again as she released the single "The Story" — an emotional song about her painful divorce and how it changed her kids' lives.

During an interview with Esquire that debuted online on Feb. 22, Ben Stiller confirmed speculation that he and his wife of more than two decades. Christine Taylor, officially reconciled after briefly separating in 2017. "We were separated and got back together and we're happy about that," he said, explaining that they reconnected when they decided to quarantine together amid the coronavirus pandemic. "Then, over the course of time, it evolved. … It's been really wonderful for all of us. Unexpected, and one of the things that came out of the pandemic," he said. He then shared a metaphor to explain how they worked through the issues in their relationship: "A few years ago, I realized I don't like horseback riding. If there's an opportunity to go horseback riding, I'm probably not going to do it. Now, I like horses! I think they're beautiful. I like petting them. I like watching people ride horses, I like watching my kids ride horses. I just don't really love riding horses. And once you know that, it just saves a lot of energy. So, yeah, I think we have a respect for the ways that we're similar and the ways we're different. And I think accepting that, you can really appreciate someone more because you're not trying to get them to change for you. Once you accept that, you save a lot of energy. 'This is something that works for me; this is something that doesn't work for me.' If you have that trust level with your partner, you know that me saying 'I don't like doing that thing' is not me saying 'I don't like you,'" he said.

On Feb. 21, Aaron Rodgers hinted on Instagram that he and Shailene Woodley may not have thrown in the towel after all: "Here's some… #MondayNightGratitude for some of the incredibly special people in my life, with some pictures from the last beautiful year. @shailenewoodley, thanks for letting me chase after you the first couple months after we met, and finally letting me catch up to you and be a part of your life. Thanks for always having my back, for the incredible kindness you show me and everyone you meet, and for showing me what unconditional love looks like, I love you and am grateful for you," he captioned a slideshow of photos. The following day, the NFL quarterback gushed about his relationship with the Emmy nominee on the Feb. 22 episode of "The Pat McAfee Show," saying, "When your home life is stable and you have an amazing partner to do life with, it just makes the work life a bonus, and it changes your perspective because you're able to not look at work as, like, a refuge. … It's been great the last two seasons to have that stability at home. … When things are good in your personal life and your relationships, your friendships, your loved ones, it allows you to just relax and be so much more grateful, I think, for the little things in life." He also claimed he recently told the actress, "I've been with you two years, won two MVPs — that's not a coincidence." When asked if Shailene "changed" or "shaped" him, Aaron replied, "Oh yeah, without a doubt. … I've learned so much from her. She's just an incredible woman — talented, smart, kind. I said it last night: She taught me what unconditional love looks like." According to Page Six, he went on to say that the "Big Little Lies" alum makes his life "more enjoyable and tasteful and exciting." Continued the professional football player, "When you meet your person, life just changes, and you can't possibly not be changed being around those special people that we meet." A viral clip from the interview — during which a woman can be heard laughing as Aaron speaks — floated the theory that Shailene may have even been in the same house as the football star during his chat with "The Pat McAfee Show." When the host asked Aaron about "the woman laughing in the background," he claimed "it's the TV." Suuuure… Despite all the evidence they're still a couple, it's possible, of course, that they're simply just extremely friendly exes. Adding to the confusion, E! News reported days later that on Feb. 22, Aaron and Shailene were spotted together at Erewhon Market in Los Angeles. "They came to the cafe for breakfast and just sat outside at a table together," a source told the outlet.

According to TMZ, Sam Hunt's wife of nearly five years, Hannah Lee Fowler, filed to divorce the country music star in Tennessee on Feb. 18. She also dropped a few bombshells in her paperwork to legally end the marriage: She's pregnant with their first child and due in May, and she's under the impression that Sam is "guilty of inappropriate marital conduct" and "adultery." Hannah claimed in the divorce documents that her estranged husband is "guilty of such cruel and inhuman treatment or conduct" toward her that it would be "unsafe or improper" for them to continue living together. She asked for alimony, for child support, for primary custody of their unborn child and that both she and Sam "be awarded their respective separate property," indicating they may have signed a prenup before they tied the knot in 2017. (According to early reports, she withdrew her petition for divorce the same day she filed, indicating she'd had a change of heart. TMZ later clarified, however, that she simply filed for divorce in the wrong county, so her lawyers remedied the situation by refiling in the correct jurisdiction.)

On Feb. 18, Kanye West took to Instagram to share (and then quickly delete!) a screenshot of a Hollywood Unlocked report alleging that Kris Jenner's long-term boyfriend, Corey Gamble, was "spotted in the club kissing another woman." (The website has since unpublished the story, which centered around a dark and blurry video of a man who may or may not have been Corey kissing a mystery woman later identified as OnlyFans model Yamile.) Later that day, Us Weekly reported that, according to a source, the cheating rumor is "a false narrative about Corey." The video was allegedly taken in Miami over Super Bowl weekend while, according to the source, "Corey was at the Super Bowl game in L.A." Kris and Corey, who've been an item since 2014, presented a united front in the wake of the drama: On Feb. 22, they were snapped arriving in Palm Springs on Kylie Jenner's private jet.

After months of rumors about the nature of their relationship, The Weeknd and Simi Khadra — who was once friends with his ex Bella Hadid — finally confirmed they are, in fact, a couple by kissing at his birthday party in Las Vegas on Feb. 19. (See a video of their make-out session here.) A source told "Entertainment Tonight" of the chart-topper and the DJ, who's one-half of duo Simi Haze along with twin sister Haze Khadra, "[They] have been seeing each other and having fun together. They were acting very couple-y this past weekend at his birthday celebration in Vegas. It's easy since they have known each other for a long time. Simi is supportive of The Weeknd and they have a natural flirtation and chemistry." An E! News source added that "it was no secret" the duo "were together" during his b-day bash. "Simi knows all of [his] friends and it looked natural between them," said the E! insider. A People magazine source, however, insisted that The Weeknd is "dating" and "not in a committed relationship with anyone."

Shanna Moakler's volatile relationship with Matthew Rondeau has blown up again — and resulted in an arrest. On Feb. 22, Shanna was caught on camera kissing, cuddling and holding hands with her off-and-on boyfriend at the Fairmont Grand Del Mar resort in San Diego. The PDA served as evidence that the duo had moved on from the drama they faced just last week when he suddenly unfollowed her on social media amid rumors he was displeased with her behavior toward co-star Lamar Odom when she appeared on the third season of "Celebrity Big Brother" earlier in the month. The male model actually addressed the issue on his Instagram Story the same day he and Shanna stepped out in San Diego: "What I saw and what I heard on the live feeds between Shanna and Lamar was unacceptable and I was not happy about those word exchanges," he wrote. "However, I did not unfollow and delete the pictures between Shanna and I because of that. There are more personal reasons on why I deleted and unfollowed Shanna at the time, however that is no one's business other than Shanna's and my own. I would also like to add that I am not jealous of Lamar Odom … or any other man. … I'm very confident in myself and I know my self-worth and what I have to offer. Shanna and I truly do love one another and just never want to let each other go. Even though Shanna and I are on again, off again, our love remains ON and grows stronger no matter what obstacles we face." Meanwhile, Shanna told TooFab that "it was amazing" to see Matthew again following her exit from the "Celebrity Big Brother" house. "We're working on things and just moving forward the best that we can," she said. But on Feb. 24, Matthew was arrested for felony domestic violence after posting a troubling video in which he accused the former beauty queen of cheating and said their relationship was done, TMZ reported.

On Feb. 23, Aaron Carter revealed on Twitter that his extremely volatile relationship with Melanie Martin is over again. "My relationship has come to a point where we have to part ways. Please respect my privacy at this time. Thank you. … I have no intentions on being in any relationship anytime soon. I'm too scarred and I can't trust any woman. So I'm going to protect my soul and my heart at this time," he tweeted. The duo got engaged in mid-2020 and most recently split in late November 2021 — a week after they welcomed son Prince Lyric together. By early December, they'd reconciled. So it's unlikely this current breakup will stick…

According to People magazine, Da Brat and Jesseca "Judy" Dupart exchanged vows in front of famous friends including Jermaine Dupri, Eva Marcille, Porsha Williams, Kandi Burruss and Rickey Smiley at the Horse Mansion in Fairburn, Georgia, on Feb. 22. Both women wore princess-worthy Esé Azénabor gowns during the ceremony — at which they arrived in horse-drawn carriages. Jermaine served as a groomsman and walked Da Brat down the aisle, while her half-sister, LisaRaye McCoy, served as a bridesmaid. At the reception — during which Keith Sweat performed — Da Brat shared the traditional father-daughter dance with Rickey. "Everything about her made me want her to be mine forever. And I felt like I knew it not much longer than from the day we met," the rapper said of her new missus. Added Judy of their wedding date, "We've been calling each other twin flames for a while. So this date, 2/22/22, is a significant event. We just didn't want to miss it because it comes once in a lifetime. It's relevant. It's just real significant to our relationship. It signifies angel numbers, and it also is reminiscent of twin flames." Brat — who came out while debuting her relationship with Judy in March 2020 — said she and her love were "already a union" before they tied the knot: "The paper is just going to solidify it. But she wasn't ever going nowhere, anyway. And I wasn't letting her go. So, we get to do it and show the world that we're a union. It's a milestone because, in the '90s, things like this couldn't happen. … I met somebody that made me want to be so out loud and tell everybody and scream it from the mountaintops. So, I'm very grateful for that. It was like a weight lifted. I promise you, she was sent to me by God. … She's the person who completes me. She gives me courage. She inspires me, and she makes me fearless. She makes me not afraid," she gushed.

On Feb. 17, Page Six broke the news that Conor Kennedy — Robert F. Kennedy's grandson — is dating chart-topping Brazilian singer Giulia Be in the wake of his late-2021 split from Damon Dash and Rachel Roy's daughter, model and vegan lip gloss entrepreneur Ava Dash. "Conor and Giulia have been seeing each other quietly, but they are officially a couple. She lives in Rio, but they have recently been spending time together in Malibu," said a source. A second source explained that Conor and Ava — who attends Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles — split when he moved to Washington, D.C, to attend Georgetown Law: "It was really just because of the distance, the relationship just petered out," said the insider. Ava has also moved on. Since late 2021, she's been "really happy" with Innis Jenkins — the son of philanthropist Diana Jenkins, who's set to star on the upcoming 12th season of "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills."

During an interview with Page Six that debuted online on Feb. 21, "Below Deck Sailing Yacht" personality Daisy Kelliher said that although her relationship with co-star Gary King is platonic, they "kind of almost act like a couple." She added that they're "trying to figure out" their "complicated" dynamic. "We kind of hate each other, but we love each other. So sometimes you're a bit like, 'Oh, well, maybe we should just make out.' And afterwards, you're like, 'Oh, no, we should never do that again.' So it was complicated for us. … It was all a bit of a roller coaster," she said, adding that they "definitely got into some arguments again this year." Said Gary, "I think Daisy and I've always had this like underlying thing for each other. Maybe that's just from my part, I don't know. … I like Daisy. I think she's a great girl. I just think it's quite difficult to have a relationship when you're working on a yacht and you might only see each other once every six months or something like that. So I think in the future, if Daisy and I ever see each other, maybe we will see where it takes us."
