Having landed roles in some of the most prestigious projects like Fast and Furious as well as MCU’s Captain Marvel, Brie Larson has managed to achieve enormous success and today she is acknowledged as one of Hollywood’s most prominent and versatile actresses.
Not to mention, she has an Academy Award under her belt after her breakthrough performance in the 2015 film, Room. Despite her stardom and fame, Larson has always managed to steer clear of the spotlight and tabloid attention, especially when it came to her personal and dating life. This hasn’t barred the public curiosity to dig deeper into the actress’s romantic past and to a majority of fans’ excitement and delight, the efforts yielded positive outcomes.
Her three-year engagement and six-year relationship with Alex Greenwald is a well-known fact. But it was her romantic involvement with Elijah Allan-Blitz which garnered an incredible amount of media and popular attention. In 2020, the Fast and Furious star confirmed her relationship with Elijah, whom she reportedly met in 2019, after which the pair were spotted kissing.
Thereafter, the couple attended various public events together, which made their relationship status more definite. In February 2020, they attended the 92nd Annual Academy Awards, which marked the first time the pair appeared in a public event together.
If it wasn’t enough to publicly announce their relationship, Elijah and Brie attended Jimmy Kimmel Live on Sep.7, 2022, as well as expressing their love for each other on social media. This happened after Brie posted a cozy picture of her and her boyfriend sitting and smiling on a couch.
The photo, which shows Elijah’s hands around her shoulders, is enough to prove that they are comfortable in each other’s company and very much in love. Sadly, this couldn’t last long, as the couple called it quits in March 2023.
Even though the reason for the breakup remains uncertain, the Captain Marvel star, in her interview with Harpers Bazaar mentioned that not getting romantically involved at this point might be a healthy option for her. “I don’t have a next job. I don’t have a home. I don’t have a partner. I don’t have a plan. I’m just completely open,” was her reply on the subject of her relationship.
Further, she added that currently being single and out of the limelight is nothing but an enjoyable experience,
“I want to be in reality. I love reality. It’s all I want. My biggest fear is to not be in reality. It matters so much to me. I don’t wear super-flashy clothes when I’m out in the world because I want to stay in reality. I’m very good at confrontation in my relationships because I want to be in reality. I want to be in what’s as close to what’s true as possible.”
Larson’s honest confession about her breakup is a confirmation of her being single. This also implies that she might not be possibly looking for anything serious as of now, but we will definitely keep our eyes peeled in case any juicy updates arise.
