Justin Timberlake has a history with other notable actresses, but the one that generated the most controversy was his alleged affair with co-star Mila Kunis while he was in a relationship with Biel. The actors met when they co-starred in Friends with Benefits, and since then, rumors surrounding their relationship earned immense attention. However, despite all the allegations and speculation about the co-stars, it turns out that the actor had nothing with Kunis and he wasn’t cheating on Jessica Biel.

Why Did Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel Split in 2011 Before Getting Engaged

Among the widely discussed relationships in the entertainment industry is Justin Timberlake and his wife Jessica Biel‘s dynamics. The two have faced significant ups and downs in their relationship since they met in 2007. When Biel and Timberlake confirmed dating, three years into their relationship, they split in 2011. Soon after their breakup, rumors about the reason behind their split started circulating, claiming that it was the actor’s Friends with Benefits co-star Mila Kunis because of whom Timberlake cheated on his ex-girlfriend.

However, despite the heated rumors and speculation behind their 2011 split, a source closely related to Biel confirmed that she was aware of the false claims against the Wonder Wheel star and didn’t believe them. According to Glamour, the friend said:

“If Jessica ever had proof that he had cheated, she would have left immediately.”

The actual reason behind Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel’s initial breakup was the natural end of their connection. The two did not feel like continuing and believed that it was time to conclude their love and move on from each other. The mutual decision had nothing with Mila Kunis as she wasn’t romantically involved with her co-star. According to People, a source confirmed that:

“It was completely mutual and they both decided it was time to move on. No one came between them. They decided their relationship ran its course and it was time to move on.”

However, after their publicized split and notable rumors in 2011, the two got engaged the same year in December. The reunion was cherished by both Timberlake, after which the two addressed their unbreakable bond often in different interviews. The couple then tied the knot in 2019  in southern Italy, marking a new life as an officially wed couple.

It’s been more than a decade since Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel walked down the aisle. Despite the rumors and challenges in their initial relationship, they managed to find happiness in each other. However, the current scenario between the couple’s dynamic seems like the Palmer star and his wife may face the biggest challenge in their marriage. A recent report from Life & Style suggests that Biel and her husband are taking “couples therapy” to retain their marriage.

“Though they do love each other, all of the couples therapy they’ve undergone simply isn’t fixing some of their underlying issues.”

Things seem to have worsened among the couple soon after the Princess of Pop mentioned her past relationship with Justin Timberlake in her memoir. Britney Spears claimed that due to the actor’s pressure, she had to abort her child after she got pregnant from the actor. However, since the couple hasn’t officially announced their challenges or split, we hope they find contentment in every decision they make.

Friends with Benefits is available on Prime Video.
