When you’re good together, you just know. But for the rich and famous, whose love lives play out so publicly, it’s easy to take for granted just how good a couple can be — so much so that when a celebrity relationship ends, we can’t help but be heartbroken too. We’re still not over these couples’ breakups.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt
We know, we need to get over this celebrity breakup already. But we can't help not wanting to lose hope considering how great Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were together — not only as a look-alike couple but also as parents of six.

Justin Theroux and Jennifer Aniston
There was something satisfying about her relationship still going strong while Brad and Angie's was over — until it wasn't. Hey, there's always Tate! Remember when she dated him?! Reminisce with more amazing celebrity couples from the 90s.

Diane Kruger and Joshua Jackson
There are some celebrity couples who seem like they'll last forever but love died the day we learned Josh and Diane split. They were together 10 glorious years, and we'll forever miss them.

Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams
They were crazy about each other and we were crazy about them. We lost a little hope for all celebrity couples after this shocking split.

Rihanna and Drake
They never really admitted they were an item but, come on, we all knew they were. But he was clearly into it more than she was so when it's that one-sided, things were bound to end badly. We're not sure who was more upset and sad when they separated: us or Drake.

Chris Pratt and Anna Faris
We never worried about these two because not only did they seem deeply in love but they also looked like they actually liked each other. Sadly, though, they broke the news — and our hearts — when they announced their split.

Lady Gaga and Taylor Kinney
After five lovely years, the celebrity couple ended their engagement — and their relationship all together. It wasn't a bad romance, just bad timing.

Amy Poehler and Will Arnett
Nope, we still can't believe these two aren't each other's endgame. Amy Poehler and Will Arnett divorced after nine years of marriage. It was a sad, sad split for us all.

Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield
We all thought their breakup was a rumour but sometimes awful rumours are true. Especially when it comes to young celebrity couples.

Ben Stiller and Christine Taylor
These two seemed like they would be together forever but after 17 years of marriage, they shocked us all when they announced they were calling it quits. It's hard to believe in love, at this point.

Courteney Cox and David Arquette
Dave and Court were just so darn great together. We're sure their significant others don't think so but, still. Agree to disagree.

Wilmer Valderrama and Demi Lovato
They made sense — even though when they started, we didn't want them to (you know, since he was 29 and she was only 17, ick). But now, a redux wouldn't be the worst thing. Some celebrity couples will always have a spot in our hearts.

Jon Hamm and Jennifer Westfeldt
Instead of following in Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn's unmarried-but-deeply-in-love footsteps, Jon and Jen, who were together for 18 years, went the way of celebrity couple Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon.

Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins
Speaking of, if 18 years couldn't cut it, neither could 21, which is how long Susan and Tim were together until they ended things in 2009. Yes, they've been apart for that long.

Drew Barrymore and Justin Long
They didn't actually date for that long but their chemistry, not to mention how much fun they always looked like they were having, made them irresistible. At least they never got hitched, like these other insanely short celebrity marriages.

Naomi Watts and Liev Schreiber
Their breakup didn't make a blip since they announced the sad news of their split shortly after the demise of Brangelina. A tried-and-true celebrity couple breakup tactic, yes, but that doesn't mean it didn't hurt any less.

Michael Sheen and Sarah Silverman
They may have seemed like an odd celebrity couple, so much so that during their four years of dating, we're not sure who we liked together better — Sarah and Michael or Sarah and Michael's ex, Kate Beckinsale, with whom she got along swimmingly. Sigh. This one was a real bummer.

Vanessa Hudgens and Zac Efron
If only life was a high school musical, these gorgeous humans would be the king and queen of homecoming forever.

Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon
There's something to be said about a celebrity couple whose split was totally amicable. These two wacky kids deserve each other; why can't they see that??
