Over and out and single once again. Michael Fassbender and his girlfriend, Alicia Vikander, have split after less than a year of dating, a source reveals to Us Weekly exclusively.
Fassbender, 38, and Vikander, 26, first met on the set of their film, The Light Between Oceans, and continued spending time together in late 2014, fueling dating speculation. They were last photographed together in May at the Formula One Grand Prix in Monaco, where they looked affectionate and happy as they enjoyed the races.
Vikander most recently starred opposite Eddie Redmayne in the Oscar buzz-generating movie The Danish Girl. Fassbender is currently working on his role as the enigmatic late Steve Jobs.
Prior to his relationship with Vikander, the Prometheus actor had a history of romancing his costars. From 2010 to 2011, he dated his considerably younger X-Men: First Class costar Zoe Kravitz. He subsequently dated his Shame costar Nicole Beharie from 2012 to 2013.
In the November 2013 issue of GQ, the Irish-German hunk admitted that his love life has suffered slightly due to his commitment to his career.
"I'm kind of selfish with the hours that I put into the work," he told the mag. "I think the longest relationship that I’ve been in was two years... I started doing this when I was 17, so I guess in my dating, adult life, that kind of covers it."
He noted, however, that women seem more attracted to him since he joined Hollywood's A-list with roles in films like Shame, 12 Years a Slave, and more.
"You become a lot more successful in terms of, like, talking to a girl," he mused in the same interview. "She's all of a sudden more interested in me. I know that, like, three years ago, she would’ve walked away after two sentences left my mouth."

Selena Gomez Confirms She Had "a Thing" With Zedd
Selena Gomez confirms that she had "a thing" with DJ Zedd earlier this year -- see what she said! Credit: March/FilmMagic
Oh hey, it's true! Selena Gomez didn't shy away from talking about Zedd during an interview with New Zealand's radio show The Edge Afternoons on Tuesday, June 30. In fact, the "Good for You" singer confirmed that she dated the DJ earlier this year.
Gomez, 22, came clean about their fling when asked about Diplo's accusation that her relationship with Zedd, 25, was just a publicity stunt.
"He said that was a joke!" she explained. "He said that was a joke 'cause I talked to him."
She added: "First off, It’s very interesting that Diplo would think he knew about my personal life, but he doesn’t. I adore Zedd a lot and I definitely had a thing with him, which was nice."
The former child star and Zedd first sparked romance rumors back in January. They posted photos from their FaceTime chitchats while in bed, held hands at the 2015 Golden Globes on Jan. 11, and collaborated on the song "I Want You to Know." Gomez even called him the "Harry to My Sally" and gushed about his "beautiful eyes" to Radio Disney's The Alli Simpson Show.
During The Edge Afternoons, Gomez also played a round of "True or False," but only if "he who shall not be named" wasn't brought up. (Ahem, ex Justin Bieber!) One particularly interesting question? Whether Gomez called Katy Perry to apologize after filming Taylor Swift's star-studded music video for "Bad Blood." The song, as Us Weekly previously confirmed, is about Swift and Perry's longtime feud.
"That's false. I love Katy," Gomez said. "I just talked to her, but I didn't talk about that."

Mystery solved.
A month after Rachel McAdams and her True Detective costar Taylor Kitsch dined at West Hollywood’s Osteria Mozza on June 2, multiple sources confirm they are dating.
“It hasn’t been long,” says an insider. “But it’s serious.”
The Canadians, who recently wrapped the HBO drama’s second season, have been “friends for years,” adds a second McAdams source. “They grew closer on set.”

McAdams, 36, once told Glamour that work isn’t a convenient place to find love. (Who can forget her IRL romance with The Notebook costar Ryan Gosling?!)
“A set may seem like a good place for romance, but I don’t think it’s very conducive; it’s too distracting,” she says. “Every relationship I’ve had with a coworker comes after the fact.”
But McAdams couldn’t resist Kitsch’s charm — or Jake Gyllenhaal’s.
In April, “she definitely dated Jake Gyllenhaal while filming Southpaw,” the insider continues.
Kitsch, 34, who recently broke up with fitness instructor Jennifer Welch, has had no problem sweeping McAdams off of her feet.

“I don’t know if it’s full-blown love yet, but they talk constantly,” another source confirms. “They’re really into each other. She talks about him all the time!”

The Rock Opens Up About Longtime Girlfriend Lauren Hashian: 'You Gotta Get the Better Half in There'
Increasingly, celebrities are drawing a hard line between their public and personal lives. But then again, the status quo has never worked for Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, whose personality is only matched in size by his deltoids.
In a new Esquire Q&A, the American treasure makes the rare move of opening up about his longtime girlfriend, Lauren Hashian, and straight up demands that writer Scott Raab include it in his piece.
"I've lived with my longtime girlfriend, Lauren Hashian, going on, like, eight, nine years now. She's a singer-songwriter," Johnson tells the magazine. "We spend a lot of time with my daughter in Florida, Simone, who's 13. We do these stories and we talk so much about the business end, the success end, but then Lauren isn't mentioned and my daughter isn't mentioned. I always like making sure we find the balance and my home life is in there and Lauren Hashian is in there and my daughter is in there."
Okay, they've been mentioned now. Please don't pull out the Rock Bottom on us.
Johnson and Hashian have been dating since 2007, the same year he separated from his ex-wife, Dany Garcia, who is the mother of Simone. While Hashian rarely appears on her man's popular Instagram account and often doesn't pose with him at premieres, the modern family is all clearly on good terms, as Hashian, Simone, Garcia, and her new husband all accompanied The Rock at his TCL Chinese Theater handprint signing last month.
Hashian has had her own brushes with fame. For starters, her father is Sib Hashian, the drummer for '70s and '80s rock band Boston. In 2005, the singer-songwriter was a finalist on R U That Girl, a competition reality show hosted by TLC's Chilli and T-Boz.
Johnson tells Esquire that he attributes his success to his close family: "With all the cool s--t and success that I've been lucky enough to get? That doesn't happen unless the home life is solid," he says.
And indeed, it's been quite a year of "cool s--t and success" for The Rock. He has two films — Furious 7 and San Andreas — that are two of 2015's top 15 highest grossing movies so far. And his newest project,
HBO's Ballers, premiered to excellent reviews.
Asked whether he prefers movies over wrestling, the former WWE champion's answer may surprise you.
"Wrestling is intimate. You can reach out and touch the wrestlers. I don't get that connection in movies, but the impact is so much greater. You're able to craft a longer career in movies," he says. "In wrestling, there's a shelf life, and some wrestlers don't pay attention to the shelf life. Mickey Rourke's character in The Wrestler — that was my dad, that was my uncles, that was so many members of my family. It was the only thing they knew. And then they would end up wrestling for a hundred bucks, go to autograph signings for two hundred bucks."
While it's all wine and roses now, Johnson reflects on the grittier start of his wrestling career.
"I think wrestling for $40 a night and eating at the Waffle House three times a day, wrestling every weekend at a flea market, then at a state fair or a car dealership or in barns, 'blade jobs,' where I cut my forehead with razor blades," he says. "These days I never question, 'Oh, do I deserve it? Am I a real man?' No."

Ben Affleck, Jennifer Garner Split After 10 Years of Marriage
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner have split after nearly 10 years of marriage, their reps confirm to Weekly Us Credit: Nevel Images
Ben and Jen no more. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner have split after more than 11 years together. The couple's announcement comes just one day after their 10th wedding anniversary.
"After much thought and careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to divorce. We go forward with love and friendship for one another and a commitment to co-parenting our children whose privacy we ask to be respected during this difficult time," the couple said in a joint statement to Us Weekly on Tuesday, June 30. "This will be our only comment on this private, family matter. Thank you for understanding."
Affleck, 42, and Garner, 43, first met on set of 2001's drama Pearl Harbor, and shared the screen once more in 2003's Daredevil. They remained friends before going public as a couple at the Boston Red Sox's opening game of the World Series on Oct. 23, 2004.
The Argo director proposed on the actress' 33rd birthday in April 2005, and wed in a hush-hush Caribbean ceremony that June. They share daughters Violet, 9, Seraphina, 6, and son Samuel, 3.
Back in March, the Nine Lives actress revealed that the pair often take turns working so the other could be at home with the kids. "I've been home for a long time. It's my turn and I'm going to go to work this spring," she told reporters at a Beverly Hills event for her film Danny Collins.
"I think I’ll work the spring and summer, maybe the fall too, as long as some of it's at home." (That month, Garner and Violet accompanied Affleck to his U.S. Senate hearing in Washington, D.C. He's since been preparing for his role as Batman in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and has been filming Suicide Squad in Toronto, Canada.)
Affleck and Garner walked their last red carpet together at the 2nd annual Save the Children Illumination Gala at NYC's Plaza Hotel in November 2014. Most memorably, Garner supported Affleck during his stellar awards season for the drama Argo in 2013.
"I want to thank you for working on our marriage for 10 Christmases. It's good. It is work but the best kind of work and there's no one I'd rather work with," Affleck said while accepting Argo's Best Picture Oscar (his second following a Best Screenplay win for Good Will Hunting in 1997) in February 2013.
"You have to work harder than you think you possibly can. It's hard. But you can't hold grudges. And it doesn't matter if you get knocked down in life. All that matters is that you gotta get back up."
Garner later reacted to the speech during an interview with The Telegraph. "I know Ben, I knew he meant it as the hugest, warmest compliment in the world," she explained. "I think he was saying, 'Look, what we have is really real and I value it above all and I'm in it with you and I know you are in it with me.' That's the way I took it."
Affleck previously called off his two-year engagement to Jennifer Lopez in 2004. (The exes shared a laugh at the 2015 Oscars.) He also romanced Gwyneth Paltrow from 1997 to 2000. Garner split from Scandal's Scott Foley in 2003 after two years of marriage, and later had a brief romance with Alias costar Michael Vartan.
