Avril Lavigne And Tyga Both Dated Jenner Siblings Before Getting Together
After Avril Lavigne broke off her engagement with Mod Sun, no one expected she'd get together with Tyga. The two were first spotted together in February having dinner at NOBU in Los Angeles, sparking rumors that they were dating. At the time, the "What the Hell" singer was still engaged to Mod Sun. However, later that month, a source told People that Lavigne and Mod Sun were no longer an item. Unfortunately, this was news to the "Battle Scars" singer, who was on tour at the time and wasn't aware of their breakup.
Lavigne and Tyga confirmed their relationship status early in March when they were seen sharing a smooch at a party during Paris Fashion Week, which is the same city where Mod Sun proposed to Lavigne in March 2022. Both Lavigne and Tyga have quite an extensive dating history, but that's not the only thing they have in common — and it has something to do with the Jenner clan.
Avril Lavigne and Tyga's new relationship is complicated
Avril Lavigne and Tyga getting together is a shocker, but what makes their relationship even more surprising is that they both have ties to a Jenner. Lavigne and Brody Jenner started dating in 2010 and were one of the hottest couples in Hollywood at the time. They were often seen partying it up at clubs and wore coordinating outfits. Awww, how cute they were! Brody showed his love for Lavigne that year by getting a tattoo of her name on his arm. Lavigne showed the love right back by getting his name tattooed on the side of her torso. Unfortunately, their tattoo lasted longer than their relationship. The two broke up in 2012 and moved on with other people.
A couple of years later, Kylie Jenner was linked to Tyga, but they shut down any rumors of being romantically linked. At the time, Kylie was 17 years old, while the rapper was 24. When Kylie turned 18, they went public with their relationship and were on-and-off for two years. Tyga and Kylie officially broke up for the final time in April 2017. Fast forward to 2023 and Tyga and Lavigne are now an item, which may be a bit too close for comfort for some.
Avril Lavigne also has ties to the Kardashians
Oh, what a tangle web Avril Lavigne has woven. Not only is she now dating Kylie Jenner's ex-boyfriend, she also works with Kourtney Kardashian's now-husband, Travis Barker. The Blink-182 drummer lent his talents in 2007 for Lavigne's album, "The Best Damn Thing." In 2021, she signed with his label DTA Records and released her first single with them, "Bite Me," which featured Barker on drums. The following year, she debuted her album, "Love Sux," with songs written by her ex-fiance Mod Sun (cringe face emoji).
However, what makes Lavigne and Tyga's pairing even more complicated is a little-known fact that many probably don't remember. In 2011, while Lavigne was dating Brody Jenner, she had Kylie walk in her fashion show for her line Abbey Dawn. Kylie was just 14 years old at the time and her sister Kendall Jenner walked the runway as well. Although Lavigne and Tyga's relationship has just begun, if things get more serious between them, run-ins with the Kardashian-Jenners may be super awkward.
