Jeffree Star has confirmed what the Internet was speculating very hard about over the last 96 hours or so … he and his longtime boyfriend, Nathan Schwandt, are dunzo.
The YouTube star and beauty influencer posted a video Saturday titled, “We Broke Up.” Jeffree says he and Nate — who first started dating in 2015 — had, in fact, broken up … this amid much chatter over Twitter and Instagram among their respective fans.
Jeffree says it’s been a few weeks since they’ve split and goes on to say they’re both in a state of shock … adding that Nathan — his soulmate, he says — is “going through it.”
As for a reason why they broke up … Jeffree kinda dances around a hard point of contention, BUT he does get into Nathan’s supposed dislike of the public spotlight JS often finds himself under and alluded to that as a part of why they started growing apart.
That said, Jeffree says they remain friends … but now, it’s time for each of them to focus on one another.
BTW … Nathan had apparently never been in a relationship with anyone but a female until Jeffree. They started talking over Instagram in 2014, and eventually … got together. It should also be noted … Nathan wasn’t even remotely famous before his romance with Star.
