What We Know About Chrishell Stause And Keo Motsepe's Breakup

It was all good until it wasn't. Selling Sunset star Chrishell Stause has reportedly called it quits with Dancing With the Stars pro Keo Motsepe after just three months of dating, Page Six reported. Keo was the first relationship for Chrishell following her divorce from This Is Us star, Justin Hartley. While on Selling Sunset, Stause shared how blindsided she was by the text message Hartley allegedly sent informing her of his decision to file for divorce. Fans of the show rallied around her in support and were happy to see her move on with someone new. 

The couple confirmed their romance in December 2020 by posting a photo that showed Keo planting a kiss on Chrishell. The next day, Chrishell followed it up with another snap that showed Keo kissing her on the cheek. "The internet has absolutely zero chill. So I guess you saw this already, but I'm just gonna leave this here," she captioned the post. In the weeks that followed, she appeared on the Viall Files podcast and teased about her budding romance. "The timing of it, I was like, oh uncomfortable, I don't know what — you know, I just want to be careful what I say because obviously I'm excited and everything, but, you know, you don't want to squash something by talking about it," she told host Nick Viall. By the Christmas holiday, Chrishell shared how Keo "fit right in" when meeting her family, per People. 

So what caused the duo to call it quits shortly after their first Valentine's Day? We explore the reported reason here.

In February 2021, sources for Chrishell Stause and Keo Motsepe confirmed that their breakup as a "mutual" decision after their romance "ran its course," TMZ reported. The two appeared inseparable in the three months they dated. They enjoyed a couple's trip with Chrishell's Dancing With the Stars pro partner Gleb Savchenko and his girlfriend Cassie Scerbo shortly after making their love Instagram official, per Page Six.

After spending the Christmas holiday together, the pair praised each other on social media for Valentine's Day. "My Valentine. Happy Valentine's Day," the Netflix star captioned a couple's photo. They both shared smiles while posing with her dog. "I LOVE YOU BABY happy Valentine's Day," Keo captioned a solo closeup of Chrishell. In the days that followed, the professional dancer shared a shirtless black and white photo for which Chrishell expressed her admiration. "Burn it down," she wrote under the pic just one week before their breakup became public.

Although it's not clear what caused their split, it was the first she entertained following a painful divorce. Chrishell shed tears on Selling Sunset when dealing with the reality of her marital breakup from Justin Hartley, according to Today. Meanwhile, her ex-husband is enjoying his relationship with Young and the Restless co-star Sofia Pernas. Maybe Chrishell will open up about her latest breakup on the next season of Selling Sunset. Around the time the split got revealed, she shared a photo with her co-stars Heather Rae Young and Mary Fitzgerald, so you never know.
