Avril Lavigne has moved on from ex-fiancé Mod Sun with a new relationship that’s left fans surprised.
During the Mugler x Hunter Schafer party at Paris Fashion Week, Lavigne and rapper Tyga were photographed kissing and holding hands, seemingly confirming their new relationship.
The “Sk8er Boi” icon recently broke things off with singer Mod Sun after an almost year-long engagement. The couple got engaged in Paris in March 2022 and broke things off in February 2023, which was apparently a “surprise” to Mod Sun, per Page Six.
“They were together and engaged as of three days ago when he left for tour, so if anything has changed, that’s news to him,” Mod Sun’s spokesperson said at the time.
He also said that his “entire life” changed on Instagram in just “1 week.”
Meanwhile, Lavigne and Tyga looked extra-cozy at Paris Fashion Week, where they were spotted at several events that first stirred up rumors of a possible romance.
The two sat front row at one runway show where they whispered in each other’s ears, and were also spotted out at a Leonardo DiCaprio-hosted party.
“Everyone opening Twitter to Tyga and Avril kissing,” one fan tweeted with a reaction video of NeNe Leakes appearing shocked and confused.
“Tyga and Avril Lavigne was not on my Bingo card,” another person tweeted.
One person was in denial, theorizing in a tweet that the relationship is just a front for a new mash-up of the two stars’ most iconic hits: “Avril Lavigne and Tyga are not dating they are just hanging out because they are producing a mashup of ‘Rack City B—h’ and ‘Complicated.'”
Interestingly, the seemingly random pair has an interesting connection via the Jenner siblings.
Tyga infamously dated 17-year-old Kylie Jenner for nearly three years before she began dating Travis Scott and had her daughter Stormi Webster.
Before that, Avril dated Kylie’s older brother Brody Jenner for two years, from 2010 to 2012.
At the time, Kylie even modeled for Avril’s clothing brand, Abbey Dawn. The duo also went on double dates with Kim Kardashian and her ex-husband Kris Humphries.
