So much for their happy ending. Avril Lavigne and fiancé Mod Sun have split after more than two years together, Us Weekly can confirm.“Avril and Mod Sun have been on and off for the past two months, but are no longer together as a couple,” a source exclusively shares with Us.Speculation that the twosome had called it quits first sparked after the “Complicated” singer, 38, was seen out to dinner with Tyga at Nobu in Los Angeles on Sunday, February 19, according to photos obtained by TMZ.

However, the insider shares that despite her breakup from the “1970s” artist, 35, Lavigne and the rapper, 33, are strictly platonic.“Avril and Tyga are genuinely friends and nothing more,” the source explains. “There was absolutely no third party involved in the split.“Us first confirmed that the Canada native and the “Karma” artist were “seeing each other” in December 2020 after the pair formed a connection through music.

Mod Sun later revealed that he was introduced to Lavigne through their mutual friend Machine Gun Kelly.“We linked up through just talking about music,” the drummer told Metro in February 2021, noting how starstruck he was when Lavigne showed interest in his work. “It’s hard to even say because it’s f–king Avril Lavigne but she was like, ‘I really like your song, I really like your music,’ and she was like, ‘Send me some other stuff that you’re working on.’”While the “Happy as F—k” crooner admitted he was initially nervous to work with the Grammy nominee, Lavigne ended up being his only collaborator on the album and she was featured on his song “Flames.”“All of a sudden she comes through and I understood the song better after she sang it.
