Glen Powell’s ex-girlfriend Gigi Paris vented a lot of her frustrations in a new interview discussing how her relationship with the actor fell apart.
Glen Powell has been a rising name in Hollywood over the last few years, but this may have taken a bit of a toll on his relationships... well, that certainly seems to be the case according to his ex-partner.
Powell’s ex, model Gigi Paris, spoke on the Too Much podcast on June 10 and touched upon how rumors surrounding the actor negatively impacted their relationship.
When Powell and Sydney Sweeney were filming for their rom com Anyone But You in early 2023, rumors began to circulate about a romance between the pair, despite both being in relationships of their own.

The Euphoria star was in a relationship with her then-fiancé Jonathan Davino, but the pair called off their wedding earlier this year, with a source telling PEOPLE it was due to Sweeney wanting to 'focus on her work'.
Meanwhile, Powell was in a relationship with Paris, which sadly came to an end shortly after filming the movie.
Paris said that the rumors of Powell and Sweeney being together behind the scenes ‘shattered’ her and she took issue with how her now-ex handled the whole situation. She also accused the pair of using the rumors as good PR to help promote their film.
Speaking about the pair breaking up in April 2023, Paris said: “It was just, this is what I have to do for my job. I had two options. I could either pretend like I was going along with everything and have everyone wonder, like, ‘Are they hooking up? Are they not hooking up? Is she OK with this? What the f***?”
“Or stand up for myself and say, ‘No, I’m actually not OK with this, and I’m walking away. So that’s what I decided to do.”
Paris added that she felt that Powell ‘made an ass’ out of her as he and Sweeney promoted the film.
She took particular issue with his failure to nip the rumors in the bud as they had been together ‘over three years [and] talking about forever [together].’
She continued: “Where are you when you just need to stand up and say, ‘No, I would never cheat on my girlfriend. I wouldn’t do that.’ That’s all that needed to be said. And that wasn’t said … Never once.”
Paris explained that she believes the pair were playing it all up to help sell the film but admitted a part of her wished the pair did get together so it would be worth it for her.
Both actors have confirmed that they leaned into the romance to help promote the film, well aware that was what the people wanted.
