In the world of celebrities, there are always going to be hookups and, this year, there were many! While some weren’t that big of a surprise, there were others that were. Here are the 12 celebrity hookups in 2019 that we just didn’t see coming:
12. Miley Cyrus and Cody Simpson
Since calling it quits with Liam after less than one year of marriage and a decade together (on and off), Miley Cyrus has wasted no time mourning the loss of that relationship. After a whirlwind relationship with Kaitlynn Carter, she quickly moved on with Australian singer Cody Simpson. The two were spotted making out around L.A. before going public on social media. Even though they are still together, there’s no saying how long this one will last.

11. Kate Beckinsale and Pete Davidson
After his engagement with Ariana fell through, Pete Davidson quickly moved on with none other than Kate Beckinsale, who is twenty years his senior. The two weren’t shy about showing PDA and were spotted making out at a Rangers game. The relationship slowly fizzled after this and by the end of March, they were done.

10. KJ Apa and Britt Robertson
KJ Apa and Britt Robertson worked together on the 2017 film A Dog’s Purpose where they played love interests, so when news broke in July 2019 that the two were spotted kissing and holding hands at an Entertainment Weekly party, it was quite the surprise that they were suddenly an item! The two most recently starred in the movie I Still Believe together.

In February 2019, Miranda Lambert announced – completely out of the blue – that she had married a New York City police officer, Brendan McLoughlin, three months after the two had started dating.

3. Miley Cyrus and Kaitlynn Carter
Miley Cyrus and Kaitlynn Carter’s short relationship came out of nowhere. Carter just split up with Brody Jenner while Cyrus had just announced that she had separated from Liam Hemsworth when she and The Hills star were spotted canoodling on a yacht in August. These two were all hot and heavy for a month and a half before it was announced in September that they had broken up.

2. Liam Hemsworth and Maddison Brown
After Miley Cyrus went public with her relationship with Kaitlynn Carter, Liam Hemsworth was spotted photographed in October holding hands with Dynasty actress Maddison Brown. The two have since been spotted kissing and, even though it appears that they both like each other, it seems as though they are taking things really slowly.

1. Gigi Hadid and Tyler Cameron
When Tyler Cameron was spotted after an overnight date with Hannah Brown in early August, many thought the two of them were about to embark on a relationship; however, everyone’s hopes were dashed when Cameron was spotted a few days later on a date with supermodel Gigi Hadid. These two continued to date for the remainder of the summer and into the fall and they even attended a few VMA after-parties together, but they called it quits at the end of October.
