The 40-year-old actress has seemingly confirmed she’s ended her romance with the entrepreneur, just over four months after their relationship was first reported.

Rebel sparked breakup speculation when she took to Instagram on Tuesday (02.02.21) to share a picture of herself, in which she called herself a “single girl”.

She captioned the snap: “Lots on my mind...aghhhhhh...#single-girl-heading-to-Super-Bowl! (sic)”

A source close to the star then confirmed the news to Page Six, saying the relationship had “just run its course”.

Rebel and Jacob were last photographed together during the Christmas holidays when they were on vacation together, which came three months after they’d confirmed their romance by attending Prince Albert‘s Planetary Health Gala together in Monaco in September.

When their romance was first revealed, it was reported the couple were helping each other in their “health journeys” as they were both striving to lose weight.

A source said at the time: “They are officially boyfriend and girlfriend. He’s a gentleman, has very old school manners and treats her well. He is also very health conscious and they’ve been motivating each other with their health journeys.”

Meanwhile, Rebel recently said that prior to meeting Jacob, she spent an entire year going on dates with “anyone who asked [her] out” in a bid to find love.

The ‘Pitch Perfect’ star explained: “I did an experiment where I dated anyone who asked me out.

"It was part of the rules of that year, not that I told people that was happening. I just had to give lots of people a chance and then I learnt lots about myself.”

And when asked what she learned from the experience, Rebel said she now knows never to “shut herself off to love”.

She added: “Don’t shut yourself off to love.

“I had lots of really good friends but I never allowed myself to get into relationships until the last few years.

“Life is short and you really have to go for it.”
