Hunter Schafer has revealed why she and her co-star on Euphoria , Dominic Fike , broke up. The 25-year-old spoke candidly about her relationship with Fike, who she split from in 2023, on Wednesday’s episode of Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast . During the conversation, Cooper first addressed Fike’s 2023 comments to Apple Music host Zane Lowe about the breakup , as the singer said he struggled with codependency in relationships.
However, in response, Schafer revealed that she and her ex “mutually agreed” to split up, which she said was difficult to do. “It’s one of the cleaner breakups I’ve had. We both recognized that this is not working, and we can’t do this.
We got to go our own separate ways,” she explained. “It was so, so hard because we really loved each other. He’s a really special person and I love his soul and everything.
” Although the Cuckoo star confessed that the breakup was “messy” at one point, it was still a “clean parting,” claiming that both she and Fike “had a lot to work on.” “I think that’s also why I’m in this era of, I gotta figure my s*** out,” she continued. “We had a really good thing.
But there were things in our own selves that had nothing to do with each other that kept coming up in the way of the relationship.” Later in the conversation, Schafer opened up about navigating the public relationship with Fike, noting that it was her first monogamous relationship, and her first time dating a cis-gend.
