Paris Jackson is rewriting her story. The 27-year-old singer, actress, and daughter of the King of Pop has confirmed she and fiancé Justin Long have ended their relationship after three years together. Fans suspected the breakup after a tearful photo surfaced near the anniversary of her father's death, but Paris herself subtly but firmly addressed the issue on social media.
"Those are breakup tears," Paris wrote on X (formerly Twitter) on July 31, responding to speculation stirred by a Daily Mail post from July 23. "Y'all are fkn reaching again."

The couple had announced their engagement just last December in a heartfelt Instagram post celebrating Justin's birthday. At the time, Paris gushed, "Happy birthday my sweet blue… Doing life with you these last years has been an indescribable whirlwind."
But fast-forward to now, and the digital trail tells a different story. Fans noticed that several photos of Justin have quietly disappeared from Paris's Instagram grid.
Though Paris hasn't given specifics about the breakup, the move suggests she's shifting gears emotionally and mentally, stepping into a solo phase of her life with quiet resilience.

Their love story started like something out of a low-key indie rom-com. The two met backstage at "The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon" in 2022. Justin, a sound engineer, struck up a connection with Paris while reviewing tape. She recalled to Access Hollywood that it was a "moment" where she instinctively trusted him.
What followed was a whirlwind two-year romance full of planning and promise. From astrologer-picked wedding dates to a custom dress already in the works, the future seemed written in the stars.

She's More Than Her Relationships
If there's one thing Paris has consistently shown the world, it's that she's not just the daughter of a legend; she's a fully formed creative force in her own right. She's built a career on authenticity, whether it's through her music, like the hauntingly beautiful "Lost," or her refusal to play into the media circus that often surrounds celebrity lives.
This split might seem like a plot twist, but it's more of a character development arc for Paris. Breakups are never easy, especially when public, but how she's handled it says a lot about her evolution.

Paris Turns to Spiritual Healing After Breakup
After the split, Paris also took to social media to share how she's processing the emotional weight more spiritually. In an Instagram Story, she revealed she was doing a limpia, a traditional energy-cleansing ritual, with the help of a healing expert.
