Canadian singer Tate McRae and New Jersey Devils center Jack Hughes have reportedly gone their separate ways, according to recent reports. The pair, who were first linked in November 2025, kept their romance largely private. Sources indicated they were exclusively dating by early 2026.
Speculation about the relationship's status intensified on August 4th, when a popular celebrity gossip account raised questions. This followed a Variety profile published on August 3rd, where McRae spoke about her desire to keep her personal life private. "I try to keep my relationships as sacred and private as possible," she stated. "I love the people in my life. They love me. You just try to keep that circle as positive and supportive as possible. And the outside noise, I can't do anything about that. Focusing my energy on something that I can't control, it just puts me in a bad mood."
Neither McRae nor Hughes have publicly confirmed the breakup. Their relationship had previously garnered attention beyond typical celebrity gossip, with McRae facing some backlash tied to her association with Hughes after his Olympic teammates' reactions to a joke from President Trump following their gold medal win. McRae indirectly addressed these and other political leanings in the aforementioned Variety interview.
McRae was previously in a relationship with Australian singer and rapper The Kid LAROI, which she confirmed ended in a December 2025 interview with Rolling Stone. Hughes, an American NHL player, has been a prominent figure in his sport since being drafted by the Devils in 2019.
