Chace Crawford has reportedly closed the chapter on his romance with model Kelsey Merritt after more than a year together. The breakup reportedly happened without drama, leaving the former couple on friendly terms as they moved forward separately.
Neither has addressed the reports publicly. Their representatives also have not commented.
Chace Crawford and Kelsey Merritt have reportedly split without any bad blood between them
According to TMZ, sources close to the pair described the split as completely amicable. The insiders said Crawford and Merritt remain friends and harbor no hard feelings following the end of their relationship.
The couple first confirmed their romance in April 2025. Photographers captured them sharing a kiss during a shopping trip in New York City. Fans had already started connecting the dots months earlier after spotting them together several times in late 2024.
Their relationship stayed mostly out of the spotlight. Still, the pair made a handful of public appearances that fueled interest among fans. Last September, they vacationed in Sardinia with Zac Efron, Nina Dobrev, and several friends aboard a luxury yacht.
According to the outlet, the breakup came through a mutual decision rather than a major disagreement. Sources said neither side blamed the other, and both chose to remain on good terms after ending the relationship.
Crawford, 41, first found fame as Nate Archibald on “Gossip Girl.” More recently, he earned praise for playing the morally questionable superhero The Deep on “The Boys.” The hit Prime Video series introduced him to a new generation of viewers while expanding his television career.
Merritt, 29, built an impressive modeling résumé of her own. She became the first Filipino woman to walk in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show and continues working with major international fashion brands.
Although Crawford and Merritt rarely discussed their relationship in interviews, fans followed their romance through occasional outings and vacation photos. That low-key approach also carried into the reported breakup, which unfolded without public accusations or social media drama.
