Dating in Hollywood can get very complicated. Almost every tabloid will make up stories about you, and a co-star and paparazzi will take photos of you and spin a narrative out of your life.
Because of this, it is no wonder that relationships in Hollywood often lead to a breakup, or it puts a strain between the couple, especially if another celebrity is involved. Here are some of the celebrity love triangles that shook the public and Hollywood and is still talked about today.

They eventually tied the knot, and they seemed to be going strong until 2005 when the couple announced to People that they were getting divorced.
The announcement created a huge buzz, and Angelina Jolie's name got dragged in because, at the time, Pitt and Jolie were working on the movie "Mr. and Mrs. Smith."
