The couple, who first met back in 2012, two years after Carrey’s high-profile split from Jenny McCarthy, dated briefly for several months until early 2013. Carrey confirmed his breakup with White, a makeup artist, in an interview with the Irish Independent in March of that year.

White, meanwhile, posted a cryptic final tweet on Sept. 24, the same day of their alleged breakup. “Signing off Twitter, I hope I have been a light to my nearest and dearest,” she wrote. “[Love] to you all.”
