Courteney Cox and Johnny McDaid Break Up After Over 10 Years of Dating
It's the one where Courteney Cox and Johnny McDaid go their separate ways.
The Friends actress and the Snow Patrol member—who started dating in 2013—have broken up, multiple outlets report.
Prior to their split, Cox, 62, and McDaid, 49, were last photographed together in September at the 2025 US Open.
E! News has reached out to the duo's reps for comment and has not heard back.
Cox, mom to daughter Coco Arquette, 22, with ex-husband David Arquette, was first introduced to McDaid by Ed Sheeran, who brought him to a star-studded party at her house.
"I remember seeing Johnny and going, 'Oh, wow, he's intense, he's got those eyes,'" Cox recalled on The Howard Stern Show in 2022. "And he was playing the piano and then I thought, 'Oh, he's really, really handsome.'"
Although they didn't exchange numbers at the party, Cox later expressed her interest in the musician while chatting with pal Isla Fisher, who passed the information on to then-husband Sacha Baron Cohen. In turn, Cohen cheekily relayed the details to McDaid, who reached out to Cox "the next day" and took her on a date.
The pair quickly became inseparable, getting engaged a few months later in February 2014.
However, Cox and McDaid called off their engagement in late 2015, spending the next six months apart before reuniting.
"Just look at us," he told E! News in May 2016. "I love her. I've always loved her."
The Scream star also spoke out about their split in comments to Ellen DeGeneres in 2019, sharing, "I think the distance after that breakup, we were apart for six months, that really showed us a lot. It's just better."
However, the two were navigating long-distance, with McDaid living in London while Cox remained in California.
"That’s an expensive relationship," she added on The Ellen DeGeneres Show at the time. "We got back and forth a lot."
In September 2023, Cox and McDaid—who found themselves separated for nine months during the COVID-19 pandemic before reuniting in December 2020—marked a decade together.
In a shoutout to Sheeran, as well as McDaid, Cox wrote on social media at the time, "10 years ago this guy introduced me to this guy."
As Cox and McDaid enter a new chapter, just say yes to a look back at their relationship.
