After months of speculation, Billie Eilish has finally confirmed that she and Jesse Rutherford have split. The Grammy-winning star, 21, and songwriter, 31, were first romantically linked in October 2022 and had made a number of public appearances together, despite their 10-year age gap.
Sources claimed that the couple had parted ways back in May, with Billie's spokesperson confirming the news to Page Six. This weekend, Billie addressed the split for the first time with a fan Q&A on her Instagram Story.
When asked if she was dating anybody, Billie simply replied: ‘No sirrrrrrr’ with three smiley emoji. Confused by the answer, one person asked if she was still with Jesse, to which Billie sweetly replied: 'Very very good friends only. My homie forever'.
The Bad Guy hitmaker had previously been quite private about her love life, but had opened up about her relationship with Jesse in a previous interview, branding him an 'inspiration'. Billie had said: ‘I just am really inspired by this person, and, you know, he’s inspired by me. It’s really cool, and I’m really excited and I’m really happy about it’.
It appears that, despite the split, Billie and Jesse remain good friends. Fans can rest assured that there's no bad blood between the pair, with Billie's sweet comments on Instagram further cementing their friendship.
