Halsey and her boyfriend, producer Alev Aydin, have broken up. There was speculation about this a few months ago, but the couple’s split was confirmed by Halsey’s filing of documents to determine child custody earlier this month. Halsey and Alev share a nearly 2-year-old son, Ender. Halsey has asked for full physical custody with visitation for Alev, joint legal custody, and for costs and litigation fees to be equally split. According to a source (probably Halsey’s), the breakup is amicable and they’re planning to co-parent.

Halsey and Alev Aydin are going their separate ways.

“It’s an amicable split,” a source says of the pop star, 28, and the screenwriter, who welcomed a son, Ender Ridley Aydin, in July 2021. “They’re planning to co-parent.”

According to court documents obtained by PEOPLE, Halsey filed a petition to determine the parental relationship on April 5. She has asked the court for full physical custody of their 21-month-old son and requests that “reasonable visitation” be awarded to her former partner.

The Grammy-nominated artist is also asking for the court to award joint legal custody and for fees of costs and litigation to be split between both parties.

The pair were first linked when they were spotted together at a Los Angeles Lakers game in 2019.

The singer last shared an image of Aydin in an Instagram post on Valentine’s Day writing alongside the post, “❤️ ya’aburnee ❤️.”

While often keeping the relationship private, the musician raved about Aydin in an interview with Apple Music 1’s Zane Lowe in August 2021.

“I love my partner, our relationship is so full of love and passion and communication,” they said. “I remember having that moment when I was probably five or six weeks pregnant and being like, so what happens now? Do I have to be boring?”

They commented on how their relationship began while replying to a fan on Twitter who asked about a biopic about the singer that was rumored to be in the works: “bc alev was supposed to be writing it the past 3 years and we slowly fell in love instead. you know the rest!”

In fall 2022, there were rumors on Deux Moi that Halsey and Alev had broken up and Halsey was on Raya. But then there were lovey-dovey birthday and Valentine’s Day posts, so maybe they had some trouble and worked through it before really calling it off. This is a bummer because it seemed like a good and stable relationship for Halsey after that G-Eazy drama. But I also think Halsey kind of likes drama. Halsey is selling her home, after buying it from Liam Payne in January 2021, for nearly $12 million. It is quite a spread! Even if Halsey owns it solo, it makes sense to want to move at the end of relationship. I wouldn’t want to leave that house, but I don’t have access to the house options Halsey does. What Halsey is asking for in terms of custody sounds pretty standard for a young child. But Deux Moi just shared a tip about the breakup from earlier this month. According to the tipster, Halsey is living in a rental and is having some personal struggles that led to the breakup and the legal stuff might not be so smooth. But hopefully that’s just typical grain-of-salt Deux Moi stuff and things are fine for all involved, especially little Ender.
