We all have that one or two superstar couples that we just feel are right for each other. May it be Victoria and David Beckham, Amal and George Clooney, Beyonce and Jay Z, or any other superstar couple that makes you believe in love. We admire these couples, waiting for someday when we might find something like what these couples have.
It’s a sweet wish to have, but it doesn’t always mean that you will get what you want. It’s sad, but it is the truth.
Being a celebrity is hard enough, and maintaining a relationship with yet another accomplished celebrity is a tall order of business. Thus, couples tend to break up to end it before it gets complicated. A similar case was brought forth when the former The Amazing Spider-Man stars broke up with each other.
Why Did Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield Break Up?
News started spreading in the media about a possible new celebrity couple on the block back in 2011. This was the time when the shooting of the first The Amazing Spider-Man was wrapping up, and the people in question were each other’s co-stars on the set. Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone, who were playing each other’s love interests as Peter Parker and Gwen Stacey respectively, were rumored to be in a relationship in real life as well, which was later confirmed by both of them through multiple sightings and also through their social media.

The adorable romance between Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone was one for the books when they dated from 2011 to 2015. But after these four years, fans were devastated to learn that the couple had called it quits with each other. Yet again, speculations were on free reign, with people talking about what could have gone wrong between the two, who broke up with whom, and so on. It was only after a reliable source told People at the time, that the fog was cleared about the couple’s decision.
The fact that they were dealing with the difficulties of a long-distance relationship was the major part of the problem. When it was reported in 2015 that the two were taking a break from their relationship, he was filming a movie called Silence in Taiwan, while she had recently attended the Golden Globe and Oscar award ceremonies solo. Emma had been nominated in the supporting actress categories for Birdman, and it seemed that Andrew wasn’t able to be there with her due to his work schedule. A source told People at the time, “Emma understands his work anxieties – it’s why she originally pulled out of Cabaret last year and only did it this year – but they’re taking a break from seeing each other.”
Due to them not being able to give time to their relationship, they thought the best course of action would be to break up. It would be better to leave each other on good terms rather than prolong the relationship until it might turn ugly. A source told Us Weekly, “They still have a lot of love for one another and they’re on good terms with each other and remain close. It just wasn’t working.”
