We’re not crying, you’re crying. Cole Sprouse and Lili Reinhart broke Riverdale fans’ hearts in 2020 and split after three years together, but the duo still seems to be on good terms. Keep reading for everything we know about where they stand now.
Do Cole Sprouse and Lili Reinhart Talk After Their Split?
“It was hard to suspend all the way we felt about each other and it didn’t afford us the luxury of distance to really overcome that,” Cole said of their split while appearing on the the “Call Her Daddy” podcast in March 2023. “I know we both did quite a bit of damage to each other.”
However, the actor made it clear that he and Lili are “good friends now.”
Previously, the Suite Life star spoke publicly about the Hustlers actress and looked back at their relationship dynamic during an interview with GQ Hype in March 2022. He clarified that although the relationship had “all this public currency,” what he and Lili shared was “as real as it gets.”
When they separated, Cole started to receive online hate; some fans even began to report him to brands that he worked with. It had gotten so overwhelming that the actor decided to address the split publicly because “he felt forced to” in an Instagram post back in August 2020.
“Lili and I initially separated in January of this year, deciding to more permanently split in March,” said Cole in the Instagram post. “What an incredible experience I had, I’ll always feel lucky and cherish that I had the chance to fall in love. I wish her nothing but the utmost love and happiness moving forward. All I’ll say about it, anything else you hear doesn’t matter.”
Is Cole Sprouse Single?
The Disney alum has since moved on with Ari Fournier, whom he’s been dating since early 2021.
“Followers report everything about Ari and me as bullying, and it gets taken down pretty immediately,” he told GQ Hype. “Even on my other friends’ accounts, it gets taken down.”
As for Lili, we can safely assume she has decided to keep her relationship status out of the public eye for the time being as she’s expressed in many publication interviews. In May 2018, while dating her Riverdale costar, Lili told Seventeen that she’s very selective about what she shares with the world. “It’s called a private life for a reason — it’s mine, and it’s special and sacred,” she said.
