10. Lady Gaga and Taylor Kinney: Lady Gaga and Taylor Kinney actually ended things in 2016, but still appeared as the 10th-most Googled breakup of the year, possibly because she only recently opened up about it for the first time.

1. Ben Higgins and Lauren Bushnell: It turns out the love story people were saddest — or at least the most curious — about was between the Bachelor's Ben Higgins and Lauren Bushnell. After calling off their engagement last fall, the two officially went their separate ways in May. Bushnell has since happily moved on with new BF Devin Antin (thanks to Tinder!), while Higgins only recently started dating again. He says it's "weird."
