But, is there actually any truth to the rumours about the Met Gala curse? Well, according to celebrity matchmaker and relationship expert, Carmelia Ray, it’s all “coincidental.”<\/p>\n

She explained to Yahoo<\/a>: “Relationships don\u2019t break up because of a red carpet appearance; they break up because of what\u2019s happening behind the scenes.<\/p>\n

“If a couple is already struggling, the spotlight and scrutiny can add pressure, but it\u2019s rarely the root cause.<\/p>\n

“Celebrity relationships are already under a microscope, and the extra attention post-Met Gala can add fuel to the fire, but it\u2019s not the main reason for a breakup.”<\/p>\n
