After over ten years of dating, Violetta Komyshan and Ansel Elgort are no longer together. In a recent interview, the ballerina talked openly about her present romantic situation.
After over 10 years of dating, Ansel Elgort and Violetta Komyshan have broken up. The former couple’s divorce comes over a year after their final red-carpet appearance together. The professional dancer acknowledged her breakup with the actor during a recent interview after she characterised herself as “single.”
She recently spoke with E!
Having recently broken up with her high school sweetheart, Komsyshan revealed her new relationship status to E! during an event at the Brooklyn Museum and said, “I think it’s fun.” Adding, “Focus on your work and your passions. Right now is the age to push forward and focus on that—on yourself,” Violetta also offered advice to single women.
The connection between Ansel and Violetta
Following their encounter at NYC’s LaGuardia High School, the couple began dating in 2012. “[One day freshman year] I was with my friend, and he was walking down the block. I didn’t even know he went to my school — I just thought he was really attractive. I looked at him and told my friend, “Oh, my God, that guy’s so hot,” and she said, “Oh, that’s Ansel, he goes to LaGuardia,” Komyshan had said in 2017 while speaking to Cosmopolitan.”
Ansel’s Hollywood career had just started to take off when the pair called it quits after two years together. The couple experienced their fair share of ups and downs when they got together. Despite their reconciliation, Ansel said the following about it in 2015: “I was doing OK, but I realised something was missing, and I was like, ‘Oh, that’s love.'”
assault claims against Ansel
Six years prior, in 2020, the West Side Story star was charged with sexually abusing a 14-year-old girl. In a social media post published via Instagram in June 2020, Elgort refuted the claims. “I have never and would never assault anyone,” he wrote. “What is true is that Gabby and I had a brief, legal, and completely consensual relationship in New York in 2014, when I was 20. Unfortunately, I did not handle the breakup well and stopped responding to her, which is an immature and cruel thing to do to someone. I know this belated apology does not absolve me of my unacceptable behaviour when I disappeared.”
