Wonderwall.com is taking a look back at the stars who found love, suffered heartbreak or experienced some other major event in their love lives this month, starting with the story that rocked both Hollywood AND Washington: On March 15, Donald Trump Jr. and his wife, Vanessa, released a statement announcing that they were calling it quits after 12 years of marriage. A source told People magazine that the parents of five had been living separate lives for a while. But then the story took a turn: On March 16, former model Melissa Stetten took to Twitter to reveal that Don Jr. had sent her flirtatious Twitter DMs in November 2011, just weeks after Vanessa gave birth to one of their sons. "Surprised his marriage didn't work out since he was sending me DMs a month after his wife gave birth," she tweeted. Melissa told People that she didn't know Don Jr. personally but that "it was entertaining to see his failed attempts at hitting on me" on the social media platform. (A representative for Don Jr. told People that the messages were just jokes.) A few days later, it became clear that just because he didn't technically cheat with Melissa didn't mean Don Jr. had been faithful to his wife…

On March 19, Perez Hilton and Page Six reported that Donald Trump Jr. had an affair with Aubrey O'Day in 2011 and 2012 after they met on the set of "The Celebrity Apprentice." Over the course of the next few days, multiple media outlets began to paint a clear picture of the singer's relationship with the president's son: Aubrey was reportedly head over heels for Don. Jr, who pursued her hard and planned to leave his wife, Vanessa, for her. But the Trump family pressured him to stay with his pregnant wife, who confronted Aubrey when she found out about the affair from her husband's phone and/or emails. Vanessa was reportedly devastated — and so was Aubrey, who'd already made plans for her life with Don Jr. when she allegedly caught him cheating with yet another woman. The subsequent breakup inspired her song "DJT" (Don Jr.'s middle name is John) and her incensed cover of Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know."

On March 8, just days after reports surfaced speculating that Emma Watson might be dating Chord Overstreet, the duo were photographed holding hands in Los Angeles. "They have been dating for a little bit now, but it's still pretty new," a source told People magazine as part of a March 9 report. "They met through friends. … They might seem like an odd match but they actually have very similar personalities." The romance rumors first kicked off after the "Beauty and the Beast" star and the "Glee" actor were seen leaving the Vanity Fair Oscar Party together on March 4.

On March 7, E! News reported that Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez were taking some time apart to reevaluate their relationship — but not parting ways for good. "They were having a lot of little disagreements recently and one fight in particular blew up and caused them to decide to 'break up,' however, they've been in contact the entire time and their feelings for each other have not changed," a source told E!. "They will absolutely get back together and they are not over, but they both need some time away from each other." A source told People magazine as part of a March 12 report, "They've been having disagreements, but it wouldn't be surprising if they're back together in a week." Three days later, E! News quoted a source who called the break a "reset" to "step back to reevaluate what's going on and what direction they want to go in." But on March 20, Justin made headlines for his behavior with another woman…
On March 20, photographers caught Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue model Baskin Champion arriving at Justin Bieber's pad in what appeared to be pajamas. Later, the duo were joined by some of the singer's male friends at Craig David's concert at The Roxy in West Hollywood, where they danced together in the VIP section. According to "Entertainment Tonight," Justin "was seen with his arm wrapped around her waist during one song, and she was spotted dancing up on him throughout the show." The duo ended the night back at the pop star's home. They were seen leaving together around 7:30 the next morning.
On March 13, following a report in The Sun that they'd parted ways, Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid confirmed on their respective social media accounts that they'd called it quits after more than two years as a couple. The British tabloid reported that the former couple parted ways earlier this month: "They are no longer a couple but they do remain close and are supportive of each other," a source told The Sun. "The reality is that they've grown apart, having been together for a long time. They have crazy work schedules that would put pressure on any relationship." Added the source, "This is definitely the end for now, but this isn't a bitter split and they both have respect for each other. It's a mutual decision so no one has completely ruled out a reunion in the future, but for now that's not where their heads are at."
On March 6, an Italian newspaper revealed that in 2015, during a period of separation, Colin Firth's wife, Livia Giuggioli, had a yearlong relationship with Italian journalist Marco Brancaccia, whom she accused of stalking her after she called off the romance to reunite with her husband. The Oscar winner and his wife confirmed the report in a March 12 statement, adding that after his breakup from Livia, Marco "carried out a frightening campaign of harassment over several months" — which he has denied. When he discovered that his ex accused him of stalking her, the journalist filed a counterclaim in Italy alleging that Livia falsely accused him of a crime. He's suggested that she made up the stalking claims as a cover for their affair.
On March 17, The Mail on Sunday confirmed reports from earlier this month that Robin Wright secretly married Clement Giraudet, the VIP relations manager for Saint Laurent. The duo reportedly tied the knot three months ago. "Robin is not someone who relishes being in the public eye, so this wedding is something she's kept very quiet," said a source. "She and Clement are very happy. He's two decades younger than her but when you see them together you can tell she's very much in love."
On March 22, three days after they took to social media to share videos and photos of themselves cuddling in bed while watching "Carol" on a laptop, Paris Jackson and Cara Delevingne packed on the PDA while double dating with Macaulay Culkin and Brenda Song in West Hollywood. The duo — who've spent time together in Italy, Prague and England since they were first linked in 2017 — were caught on camera kissing and dancing outside a restaurant. On March 23, a source told People magazine, "They have a flirty friendship but aren't dating or in a relationship."
The 22nd season of "The Bachelor" came to an end on March 5 with Arie Luyendyk Jr. proposing to Becca Kufrin in Peru. But just weeks later, he broke up with her as cameras rolled so that he could date runner-up Lauren Burnham. On the live "After the Final Rose" special on March 6, Arie proposed to Lauren as Becca, who was named the next Bachelorette, waited backstage.
Two and a half years after they eloped and honeymooned in Cuba, Usher and Grace Miguel have split. "After much thought and consideration we have mutually decided to separate as a couple," they told Us Weekly in a joint statement on March 6. "We remain deeply connected, loving friends who will continue supporting each other through the next phases of our lives. The enormous amount of love and respect that we have for each other will only increase as we move forward." A source told Us that the pair, who got together in 2009, quietly separated a few months ago.
Amber Heard and Sean Penn shared a romantic dinner date at the Sunset Tower hotel in Los Angeles during the weekend of the Oscars, "Page Six TV" reported on March 9.

Sharon Stone prompted rumors that she and her boyfriend — Italian entrepreneur Angelo Boffa, to whom she was first linked in January — had gotten engaged when she was photographed sporting a massive diamond ring on THAT finger during a day at the beach in Miami on March 9. But three days later, People magazine reported that Sharon's publicist had clarified that the duo are in fact not engaged, though the rep offered no explanation for the huge sparkler.
On March 9 — as she did when she was linked to Chris Pratt in January — Olivia Munn took to Instagram to shoot down reports that she's dating Justin Theroux. The actress shared screen grabs of her conversation with her publicist, who texted her, "In Touch is preparing a story about Olivia Munn and Justin Theroux. Sources tell In Touch Olivia and Justin are growing close together and they are heading towards a romance." Responded Olivia, "Oh my god. That is so stupid." The publicist agreed, replying, "I can try and shoot it down. But they will still run with it." The "X-Men: Apocalypse" actress then posted on her Instagram Story, "Since they said they're running that story even if we said it's 100 million percent not true, I thought I'd just let you guys know on my own that it's not. … Dear Tabloids, Please stop matching me with my friends' exes. No disrespect to people who do date their friends' exes, that's just not my style. Kthxbye!" Olivia and Justin both voiced characters in 2017's "The LEGO Ninjago Movie," while Olivia and Justin's ex, Jennifer Aniston, both had roles in 2016's "Office Christmas Party."
On March 16, Us Weekly broke the news that Alessandra Ambrosio and her fiance of a decade, Jamie Mazur, had called it quits.

The duo share two children.
People magazine reported on March 14 that Amber Rose and 21 Savage called it quits after almost a year of coupledom. "They are definitely off," said a source. "They are not together." Amber confirmed the news during a March 23 appearance on the "Big Boy's Neighborhood" radio show: "To be in a relationship is difficult, to be famous and in a relationship is even more difficult and then you end up arguing about things that you usually wouldn't argue about as a normal person," she said. "I love him. I miss him. I think about him every day. I can't say that I'm single because I still think about him every day," she continued. "My heart is still with him. Hopefully, we can work it out but if we can't — the love is still there."
On March 14, Us Weekly broke the news that Brielle Biermann and former White Sox pitcher Michael Kopech had called it quits after two years of coupledom. "She was having a difficult time with the distance, both of them wanted to see more of each other but with his baseball schedule and her shooting schedule and everything going on with the show in Atlanta, they just couldn't seem to make it work anymore," a source told the tabloid. "They both wish each other the best and ended things amicably." Not long after the report hit the internet, the "Don't Be Tardy" star confirmed the news in a since-deleted tweet: "It is true. We have a lot going on right now we decided it would be for the best," she wrote, adding, "What's meant to be will always be."
It happened again. Just a few months after Chris Evans and Jenny Slate got back together in late 2017 following a breakup earlier in the year, the "Captain America" hunk and the comedy darling called it quits once more, a March 22 report from The New York Times confirmed. Chris and Jenny initially started dating in 2016 after developing a friendship while co-starring in the film "Gifted."
TMZ reported on March 16 that Logic dumped his wife of two years, Jessica Andrea, after the 2018 Grammys in January because he realized he was "happier single than married" and "just wanted to be single." He reportedly grew distant from his wife and started spending more time away from home after his song "1-800-273-8255" blew up in late 2017. According to TMZ, Jessica is "shocked and devastated." She's reportedly living with a family member and won't walk away from the marriage with either their home or car due to their prenup. On March 20, Logic released a statement confirming the breakup on Twitter.
Jack Antonoff and model Carlotta Kohl cuddled up at the New York Knicks game at Madison Square Garden in New York City on March 17 — nearly two months after they were first linked just days after the Bleachers frontman said he was "not seeing anyone" following his split from Lena Dunham.
Jhene Aiko took to Twitter on March 12 to seemingly address rumors that she and Big Sean split after he got too flirty with Nicole Scherzinger at an Oscar party. "Sorry, but nothing about you guy's fan fiction stories are true… I still love you tho. … the internet is a wild place … it's a whole other reality. bless the internet. amen," she tweeted. (The rapper retweeted her message along with several clapping emojis.) The social media storm followed a March 12 report by The Jasmine Brand alleging that Sean and Nicole "both attended an Oscar Awards afterparty together and were cozied up together sitting at a table in VIP." Added an onlooker, "They were all over each other and they looked really comfortable around each other. They looked like they were a couple." According to The Jasmine Brand, a spy tattled to Jhene, who flipped: "She was pissed, she confronted him about it and he didn't really deny it." The singer then unfollowed Sean on social media, though she quickly had a change of heart and re-followed her beau, who threw her an epic 30th birthday party on March 16.
Common and Angela Rye recently called it quits, the activist and CNN correspondent told "Page Six TV" as part of a March 8 report. "We have and will always be friends. He is an amazing human being, and I'm a much better person because he's a part of my life. May we all keep loving and living," she said. The duo were first linked in the summer of 2017.
Us Weekly reported on March 12 that Michael Cera had secretly married his longtime girlfriend, a woman named Nadine about whom little is known. The low-key couple were photographed wearing matching wedding bands in New York City on March 11. They've reportedly been an item since at least 2014, though it's unclear when exactly they started dating or tied the knot. The super-private actor's publicist declined to confirm or deny the marriage reports.
On March 2, The Band Perry's Kimberly Perry filed to divorce former pro baseball catcher J.P. Arencibia after nearly four years of marriage. "Yes it's true, my marriage has come to an end," the country star — who cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split — confirmed in a March 4 Instagram post. "I know that beauty will come from these ashes and, as always, I want to thank you all for your love and support. I'll be in touch soon." The next day, J.P. seemingly addressed the split on Instagram. "All good. Half full kind of mentality," he captioned an image featuring Bob Marley's "Three Little Birds" lyrics: "Don't worry about a thing. 'Cause every little thing is gonna be all right."
E! News and Us Weekly reported on March 5 that less than two months after revealing they were in a courtship, "19 Kids & Counting" kid Josiah Duggar and Lauren Swanson had gotten engaged. "This is an exciting big step in our lives and the whole thing was very meaningful," Josiah, who appears on the Duggar clan's new show, "Counting On," said in a statement before confirming the happy news on Instagram. "The place where I proposed to Lauren is the exact spot where her parents were engaged. There's a lot of family history on this property making it a special place for Lauren."
