Dakota Johnson and singer Role Model have reportedly ended their relationship after less than a year together. The Fifty Shades of Grey actress and the singer, whose real name is Tucker Pillsbury, were first linked romantically in late 2025. According to a source cited by People, the pair separated “a while ago.” Representatives for Johnson and Role Model have reportedly been contacted for comment, but there has been no public confirmation from either star so far.
The reported breakup comes shortly after Role Model released his third studio album, Chuck Timely & the Hourglass. The singer had previously revealed that Johnson made a spoken word appearance on one of the album’s tracks, Love I You. Speaking to Nylon Guys before the album’s release, Role Model confirmed that the Materialists actress contributed her voice to the song.
The singer later opened up about Johnson’s involvement in an interview with Rolling Stone. He praised her contribution and said her “voice was perfect on it.” He also described her appearance on the song as something that made the track “really special to [him].” The collaboration gave fans another glimpse into the connection between the two stars, who had mostly kept their relationship away from the public eye.
Johnson and Role Model were reportedly last seen together in April during a night out in Los Angeles. Photos from the evening showed the pair looking comfortable with each other in a parking area in the Los Feliz neighborhood. Johnson was photographed standing behind the singer and embracing him, while Role Model appeared to nuzzle her ear.
The pair were first romantically linked in December 2025. Their reported romance came less than seven months after Johnson and Coldplay frontman Chris Martin ended their relationship. Johnson and Martin had been together for several years and were frequently in the spotlight during their relationship.
At the time, Johnson and Role Model were photographed having dinner with friends. Reports suggested that the two appeared very close during the meal, with Johnson reportedly cuddling up to the singer. Their public appearances continued to fuel dating rumors in the months that followed.
In January, the two were spotted together again during a night out in Los Angeles. A video shared by Deuxmoi showed Johnson and Role Model wearing matching black outfits while entering Marvin, a French restaurant and wine bar in Beverly Hills.
Later that month, the pair appeared to make their relationship more obvious when they were photographed leaving a restaurant after having dinner with a friend. Johnson and Role Model were seen holding hands and smiling at each other as they walked away.
Although neither star had publicly shared many details about their relationship, their repeated appearances together suggested that their bond had become serious. Now, with reports of their split emerging, fans will likely be watching closely to see whether either Johnson or Role Model addresses the breakup.
