After a little over a year of dating, Lori Harvey is once again saying on to the next.

Lori and her now-ex-beau Damson Idris shared a joint statement with The Hollywood Reporterannouncing their decision to split. According to the statement, the decision to end things is an amicable one. "We are at a point in our lives where our individual paths require our full attention and dedication," the statement read. "We part ways remaining friends with nothing but love and respect for each other and the time we shared together."


Rumors of a breakup brewing between the two initially sparked earlier this week when news spread that Lori and Damson were no longer following each other on Instagram and seemed to wipe each other's existence from their accounts. Some outlets even pointed out that they arrived at Odell Beckham Jr.'s birthday party separately on Monday night (Nov. 6), which seemed to be yet another hint that pointed to the couple being broken up.

Lori, 26, and Damson, 32, first ignited dating rumors around this time last year when they were spotted having dinner together in December. Their romance picked up steam rather quickly, with the two sharing post showcasing their love on social media in January 2023 and making their red carpet debut as a couple during the premiere of the final season of Damson's hit FX series, Snowfall, in February 2023.

Damson revealed in a March 2023 interview with Complexthat he was more public-facing with his budding love for Lori than in his past relationships because he was growing. "With my private life today, with my relationship today, it's great. Life is great, and I'm just moving forward."

Compared to her previous high-profile relationship with a certainCreed actor, Lori kept things relatively low-key in interviews, not sharing much with the media about her romance with Damson outside of Instagram pics, red carpet photos, birthday and couples trips, and paparazzi candids.

It's no secret that Lori's dating history can be a hot topic, but the model-turned-entrepreneur is just uncompromising and purposeful about what she is looking for in love. As she should. The shift for her in owning a dating mindset of "not compromising my values, standards, and my requirements" came after Lori almost got married to her former fiancé Memphis Depay at the very young age of 21.

She explained in a 2022 interview for Bumble, "I felt like I hadn’t really experienced anything. I didn’t really know myself, I didn’t really know what I liked, what I didn’t like. I just feel like I hadn’t really experienced life.”

Lori added, "At that point then I was like I’m about to, like I said, just date on my own terms. However, I want to move, whatever I want to do, I’m going to do it. And if it’s no longer serving me, I’m going to move on.”

Aries-April-2025-monthly-horoscopes

April is a month to slow down and to fully grasp what has been. The month starts in fiery Aries Season, but we are also in the thick of Retrograde Season as we begin the month as well. Thankfully, Mercury finally goes direct on April 7, after being retrograde mid-March, and communication matters are clearing up. This is a month of mental clarity, a fresh start, and not being afraid to dream a little bigger.

On April 12, there is a Full Moon in Libra, and this Full Moon brings relationship and financial matters full circle. This is the time to let go of what doesn’t make you feel balanced or in harmony and to create space for more peace to enter your life. Venus goes direct in Pisces on the same day, after being retrograde since March 1, and love is healing. With Venus now direct, there are more opportunities for commitment and longevity in love, and there is overall a greater feeling of romance, receptivity, and compassion in the air now.

Turns Out Sober Sex Might Be The Underrated Secret To Better Orgasms

Hmph. I know there has got to be at least three times a week when our grandparents will hear about something that folks present as being revolutionary that causes them to just roll their eyes, shrug their shoulders, and continue to go on with whatever they were doing. Listen, call it old-fashioned thinking if you want to but if you want to avoid a lot of unnecessary regret in this life, hang out with your elders (and actually listen to what they are saying) sometimes — they’ve already been where you are and, since when it comes to them, you can’t say the same, you just might get a few gems (in fact, I can almost guarantee it).

Take sobergasms, for instance. Oh, I’m willing to bet that a senior in your life has mentioned them, just in another way, before. If you’ve never heard of the term, it’s actually a pretty good one because it means just what you think it does: SOBER ORGASMS. And just to make sure that we all are on the same page, it’s sex — that hopefully includes orgasms — that involves very little to no alcohol.
