October 27, 2026: Chrishell Stause and Australian musician G Flip have separated after more than four years together, with new reports revealing an unexpected detail about their marriage. Despite celebrating multiple weddings, the former couple reportedly never completed a legally binding marriage.

The 45-year-old former Selling Sunset star confirmed the breakup in an emotional Instagram video on Monday, October 26. G Flip, 33, subsequently acknowledged the separation, with both expressing continuing affection and requesting understanding during a difficult period.

Neither has publicly disclosed a specific reason for ending the relationship.

Chrishell Stause Breaks Down Over G Flip Separation

Stause became tearful while explaining that she and G Flip had agreed to handle their public separation with love and respect.

She admitted she remained in love with the Australian musician and did not fully understand the circumstances surrounding their breakup.

“I don’t have all the information or the reasons,” Stause said, acknowledging that she needed time to process the experience.

She also described feeling “like a little bit of a failure” because the relationship had ended differently from what she imagined.

Reflecting on their four years together, Stause questioned whether a relationship should be considered unsuccessful simply because it ends. She expressed gratitude for their memories and wished happiness for both of them.

G Flip Reportedly Made the Decision to Split

Although Stause announced the breakup, sources reportedly identified G Flip as the person who initiated it.

According to People’s reporting on the separation, a source said the musician decided to end their four-year romance.

TMZ separately reported a similar account. However, neither individual has publicly confirmed who initiated the separation.

G Flip, whose real name is Georgia Flipo and who uses they/them pronouns, said their “head & heart are feeling very heavy” and explained that they were not ready to discuss the situation further.

The musician emphasized that they would always love Stause, cherish their shared memories and maintain a special connection.

Marriage Twist: Couple Reportedly Never Legally Married

A significant development emerged after TMZ reported that Stause and G Flip never legally formalized their marriage.

The pair publicly celebrated a Las Vegas wedding in May 2023. However, reports at the time indicated that the ceremony was symbolic rather than legally binding.

Sources subsequently told TMZ that the couple intended to make their marriage official later, but its latest reporting suggests that never happened.

They continued celebrating their commitment through a vow renewal in Australia in July 2024 and a medieval-themed ceremony in Los Angeles in July 2025.

The distinction matters: A wedding celebration does not automatically establish a legal marriage. If the reported legal status is accurate, the couple would not require a conventional divorce.

Relationship Timeline: From Halloween Meeting to Breakup

Stause and G Flip first met at a Halloween party in October 2021, where they connected before beginning their romance the following year.

• 2021: Met at a Halloween party.
• May 2022: Confirmed their relationship during a Selling Sunset reunion.

The relationship became a prominent part of Stause’s public life, alongside her reality television career. Other entertainment developments include the new cast announcements for HBO’s Harry Potter series.

Family Plans and Jason Oppenheim’s Reaction

During their relationship, Stause and G Flip publicly discussed their hopes of becoming parents, including fertility treatment and IVF challenges.

However, neither has suggested those experiences caused their breakup.

Stause’s former boyfriend and Selling Sunset colleague Jason Oppenheim offered support following her announcement, reassuring her that the relationship ending did not mean either person had failed.

Stause previously married actor Justin Hartley in 2017. Their divorce was finalized in 2021.

Celebrity relationship developments have also included Savannah Chrisley’s reported engagement and pregnancy news.

Breakup Reason Remains Unconfirmed

Despite reports identifying G Flip as the person who initiated the separation, the underlying reason remains unknown.

Neither has publicly alleged infidelity or misconduct, and no reconciliation has been announced.

For now, Stause has emphasized healing, while G Flip has requested privacy. Both have spoken warmly about their shared history despite the relationship’s ending.
