Bebe Rexha has announced that she's split up with her boyfriend of three years during a recent concert in London.
The ‘I’m Good’ singer was emotional as she announced the news during her 'Best F’n Night Of My Life' concert at London’s O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire on Saturday.
Bebe admitted that she was feeling fragile while introducing the song 'Atmosphere'.

“I just went through a break-up so I might get a little emotional and you need to help me,” she told the crowd.
She later broke down in tears after spotting fans holding up signs that read, ‘You are enough’ while she performed her song ‘I Am’.
“You really are trying to make a bitch cry,” she joked.
The star also joked with fans about her plans to find a new partner.
“I am going to be at Heaven tonight partying and looking for a new boyfriend,” she laughed.
“I don’t know why I would look for a new boyfriend in a gay club but you know...fluid?”
Bebe was in a relationship with cinematographer Keyan Safyari for three years after the pair were first linked in 2020.
She gushed about her then-new relationship in an interview with Entertainment Tonight in October that year.
"We like this guy. I think this is a good one. He's a very good one," she said. "This guy is special. He's loving, he takes care of me, he's understanding of my career and what I do. My family loves him.
"He's just honestly an amazing person, and he makes me happy! It just feels right," she added.
"I wasn't lonely during quarantine," she said. "I have a very wonderful man in my life right now and he's so amazing. I'm very grateful for him and I'm just enjoying my life and seeing where it goes."
Her relationship with Safyari came under scrutiny earlier this month when Bebe leaked texts from her now ex-partner which seemingly fat-shamed her.
She took to her Instagram Story at the time to share a since-deleted picture of a message from Keyan in which he said he was being 'honest' about her weight gain.
The message in question discussed Bebe's changing face after she "gained 35 pounds."
The Grammy nominee had previously opened up about her body image, posting a TikTok screenshot on Twitter with the phrase 'bebe rexha weight' included in the trending search bar.
"Seeing that search bar is so upsetting," she tweeted in April. "I'm not mad cause it's true. I did gain weight. But it just sucks. Thank you to all the people who love me no matter what."
