Nyong’o confirms Jackson breakup

Lupita Nyong’o confirmed that she and Joshua Jackson have broken up, nearly a year after they were first romantically linked. The Oscar winner, 41, told Harper’s Bazaar UK in an interview published Wednesday that she’ll credit any future romance to the love she has for her cat.

“My love for my cat is singular. If I’m ever so lucky to be in a romantic relationship again, it’ll be because of him,” the “Us” star said of her feline friend Yoyo.

The actress revealed she “was ready to shut [the romance] door and lock it and bolt it” following her heart-wrenching split from sports commentator Selema Masekela in 2023, shortly before she and 46-year-old Jackson were spotted together late last October.
