The Real Reason You Don't Hear From Avril Lavigne Anymore

Publish date: 2024-05-02

Lavigne shared a seemingly perfect union with Nickelback frontman Kroeger, but when their two-year marriage crumbled in 2015, the "Let Me Go" singer was forced to focus even more of her time and energy on her personal life rather than her professional endeavors.

"It is with heavy heart that Chad and I announce our separation today," she shared on Instagram along with a sweet snapshot of the former couple. "Through not only the marriage, but the music as well, we've created many unforgettable moments. We are still, and forever will be, the best of friends, and will always care deeply for each other. To all our family, friends and fans, thank you sincerely for the support." 

While Kroeger was spotted packing up his car in the days following their split, speculation that the estranged pair was actually back together circulated in 2016, leading us to question the status of their complicated (sorry, we had to) relationship.

According to Lavigne, their status is purely platonic. "We started working together in the studio, and we do still work together, and we've maintained our friendship like we love each other deeply," she told the the Daily Mail. "And that's something we want to keep, and that's important to us."
