16 Actors Whose Relationships Destroyed Their Careers
Jul 31 2020
Love For Fame Isn't Worth It After All For These High Profile Celebrities

For these celebs on the brink of stardom, their relationships were the nail in the coffin for their careers. Amber Heard is now facing backlash for her dramatic relationship with ex husband Johnny Depp. Stars like Meghan Markle, Angelina Jolie, and Katie Holmes all gave up lucrative careers on screen in exchange for marriage.

For other stars, relationship drama on set was the downfall of their careers. Lea Michele, Nina Dobrev, and Robert Pattinson all dealt with on set drama and on screen romances that drove a wedge between them and fans. Fans are quick to believe allegations made against the former Glee star made by her co-stars. For Nina Dobrev, a jealous breakup cast a negative shadow over the Vampire Diaries actress. Robert Pattinson had a hard time being taken seriously as an actor after his on screen romance with co-star Kristin Stewart.

Selena Gomez also faced similar problems being taken seriously as an actress after her breakout role on the Disney channel and her relationship with teen pop star Justin Beiber.

For some, a new relationship meant a change in lifestyle which also meant a step back from the spotlight and the public eye. Cameron Diaz gave up her career on screen with she married Benji Madden and Meghan Markle changed jobs altogether when she married Prince Harry and became the Duchess of Sussex. Rom-Com queen of the 90’s Meg Ryan also took a step back from Hollywood in order to pursue a quieter life.
