It’s over between Scott Disick and Sofia Richie. The pair called it quits after nearly three years together.
Recently, Disick celebrated his 37th birthday in Lake Powell, Utah, with ex Kourtney Kardashian and their three children, 10-year-old son Mason, 7-year-old daughter Penelope, and 5-year-old son Reign. However, it appeared that Richie was nowhere to be found on the reality star’s birthday.

Disick and Richie’s split comes less than one week after it was confirmed the pair were “on a break” following his recent stint in a Colorado rehab facility. “Scott is in an OK place right now and is trying to get better and focus on work, but he has to prove himself,” a source said at the time to Us Weekly.
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians‘ star had been seeking treatment for “past traumas” including the passing of his parents, but checked out of the rehab facility hours after photos of him on the premises were leaked online. Another source told Us Weekly, at the time, that Richie “noticed a change” in Disick before his rehab admission, so he “made the decision to get help for himself and for her and their relationship.”
Disick and Richie, however, were seen going strong as of last December. At the time, a different source told Us Weekly that the pair weren’t discussing plans to rush down the aisle, but were “so committed to one another.”
Just before the new year, Disick made it a priority to build a stronger bond with Richie’s family, especially her father, Lionel Richie.
“Since Scott is a father himself, he recognizes the importance of a close bond with his children and would never want to harm the relationship between Lionel and Sofia, especially because Scott’s parents have both passed away,” the insider said in December. “He values family above all else and will always look to build a bond with Sofia and her family, and would never want to detract from it.”
On Richie’s part, she was focused on becoming closer to the Kardashian-Jenner family and supported them as much as she possibly could before their split.
“Sofia and Kylie [Jenner] are still very close and hang out often, and it’s so easy because they live so close to one another,” a source told Us exclusively in December. “Sofia really wants to be liked by the Kardashians and always tries to support any project any of them are working on.”
Before their breakup, the pair moved in together in Calabasas, California. Richie eventually made her Keeping Up With the Kardashians debut during season 17, when she joined Disick on a trip to Finland with Kardashian and the exes’ children.
