Comedian Shane Gillis and influencer Grace Brassel ended their relationship after dating for 11 months. Although the split occurred months ago, it was only revealed recently.
The 37-year-old comedian and the 26-year-old social media personality began dating in July 2024. They maintained a surprisingly private relationship despite occasional public appearances. Gillis has generally kept his love life private.
Sources close to the couple told PEOPLE on November 7 that they had separated several months prior to the announcement. Grace Brassel posted a cryptic TikTok on November 6 featuring Lily Allen’s song “Madeline,” which addresses themes of infidelity. Fans speculated about the breakup, with comments asking if Gillis had wronged her. Brassel replied with playful emojis, leaving the situation ambiguous.
“Shane and Grace broke up a number of months ago.”
One notable public moment was their joint appearance at the 2025 ESPY Awards red carpet in July, where Gillis hosted the event. Brassel shared photos from the night showing them smiling and posing closely.
The couple officially confirmed their relationship with a TikTok video in July 2024. Brassel also humorously acknowledged fans flirting with Gillis in public, captioning a post, “I’m literally dating a hot girl.”
