The 'Sk8er Boi' singer and the 'Rack City' rapper first turned heads in Paris earlier this year
Avril Lavigne made headlines earlier this year when she and rapper Tyga were spotted kissing in Paris, not long after her breakup with Mod Sun.
The singer, 38, was spotted at Paris Fashion Week getting cozy with the 33-year-old, known as much for his connection to the Kardashian-Jenners as for his music. Naturally, pictures from the event quickly went viral.
Read on to learn more about their romance, how it all began, and where we've come since.
Avril Lavigne and Mod Sun split
Prior to Tyga, the Canadian pop-punk singer was in a relationship with fellow musician Mod Sun, real name Derek Smith, who she first collaborated with on the 2021 song 'Flames.'

The two confirmed later that year that they were in a relationship, and were frequently seen on red carpets and spending their downtime together.
Their relationship reached a new level in April 2022, when they announced that they had gotten engaged, even sharing photos of their glamorous engagement party.
All that ended in February when they announced their split; Mod was reportedly blind-sided and even acknowledged his heartbreak at concerts after the split.
Avril Lavigne and Tyga's beginnings
As news of the split began to circulate online, Avril jetted off to Paris for Fashion Week, spotted front row at some of the year's most high profile runway shows.

Photos of the two kissing quickly went viral on social media, and while neither party ever explicitly confirmed the relationship, they've been spotted together a few more times since.
