Celebrity couples split up all the time, but some didn’t stay apart long and eventually walked down the aisle.
After Pink and Carey Hart started dating in 2001, the duo briefly split in 2003 before later reuniting and tying the knot in 2006. They parted ways again after two years of marriage. “The most important thing for you all to know is that Carey and I love each other so so much. This breakup is not about cheating, anger, or fighting,” Pink wrote via her website in 2008. “I know it sounds like cliché bulls–t, but we are best friends, and we will continue to be.”
During their separation, Pink and Hart drafted up divorce papers before giving their relationship another chance in 2010. “We’ve had two breaks,” Pink explained on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2016. “The first one was about a year. And the second one was 11 months.”
Pink, who shares daughter Willow and son Jameson with Hart, later addressed how therapy helped save her marriage. “It’s the only reason that we’re still together because, you know, I think partners after a long time, we just speak — I can’t say it’s a man and woman thing, I think it’s a partner thing, a spouse thing — that you just speak two different languages,” she admitted during a June 2020 Instagram Live.
