Here's why their relationship ended. Why did Chris and Ian break up In a YouTube video that was posted in January 2022, Chris and Ian said that they were both feeling pressured to be a perfect couple. Titled "We Broke Up," they said in the video that being in a public relationship affected them in private. They had been together for two years. "Being in the public eye the way that we've been through these last, like, year and a half, two years, is wild," Ian said in the video.

For now, we've just decided that it would probably be in our best interest to be moving through the world unromantically," he added. Ian also said that even though he and Chris are no longer together, they can still have a "meaningful, deep connection and relationship."Article continues below advertisement Chris Olsen said that TikTok fame contributed to his breakup with Ian Paget In the video, Chris said that when he and Ian started to make TikToks, they had only been together for seven months. In that kind of time, he said that he and Ian didn't know each other that well. But being shipped so heavily from people online got to them. "So, to suddenly be shipped as this, like, perfect amazing couple — who, if we ever were to break up, people aren't going to believe in love — was just like a lot of pressure," Chris explained. Even though the pressure was too much for them to deal with, Chris and Ian both acknowledge that their followers didn't mean to do that. They aren't blaming anyone for the breakup, and they both have uploaded TikToks about maintaining a friendship after the breakup. On Jan. 7, 2022, Chris uploaded a video to the app to the "Drilla" audio by Joe.Article continues below advertisement @chris Not an end, just a shift ! We love u forever.
