exfiance

MUSE frontman Matt Bellamy has found some solace following his split from model Elle Evans, his wife of six years.

I’m told he has been spending time with sex therapist Gaia Polloni — who he dated for nine years in the Noughties.

A source said: “Matt and Gaia are still good mates and they’ve been spending time together following his split from Elle.

“It’s been a hard time for him, naturally, as it would be after the end of any marriage.

“Gaia has always been a great sounding board. Matt is focused on healing and moving forwards into co-parenting with Elle.”

Matt was seen in Notting Hill, West London, last week without his wedding ring and walking next to Italian Gaia.

They first started dating in 2001 and Matt popped the question six years later.

But in 2009, the relationship broke down and they called off their engagement.

After the break-up, Matt told an Italian magazine he would “do anything” to fix their relationship.

He went on to write Muse’s track Neutron Star Collision (Love Is Forever) for Gaia a year on from their split.

We revealed at the weekend that Elle and Matt had called time on their marriage.

They actually split in October.

A pal said: “Their relationship is very amicable. They are now focused on co-parenting their children and still get on very well.”

Matt had been splitting his time between London and LA – where Matt’s son from his relationship with Kate Hudson lives.

Now he is expected to spend more time in the UK, after admitting he wanted to come home.

SYDNEY Sweeney and her ex-fiance appear to be moving forward with the renovation of the $6 million Hollywood home they purchased before their split, The U.S. Sun can exclusively reveal.

Sydney, 28, and producer Jonathan Davino, 42, reportedly bought a fixer-upper in Bel Air, Los Angeles, at auction in 2023.

According to property filings, it was purchased under a trust, and the couple paid $250,000 over the original asking price.

A mortgage was taken out with City National Bank for $4.34 million, with a maturity date of June 2053, according to documents.

Sydney and Jonathan split in early 2025, and the Euphoria star is now dating former music manager Scooter Braun, 44.

Despite the breakup, it appears they have no plans to abandon the home project.

Jonathan was seen at the property following their breakup with Sydney’s dog, Tank, as he checked on the clean-up progress.

Now, The U.S. Sun can confirm things are moving along with plans to renovate the pool at the historic home, once owned by Hollywood screenwriter Delmer Daves.

Records from late December indicate that an initial building permit application was submitted for a new pool and spa with a solar heating system.

The contractor on file is Ventura Pools Masonry, while the application was filed by Mae Wachtel of Helping Hand for Contractors.

EXTENSIVE CLEAN-UP

According to Ventura Pools’ website, they are a recognized name in the industry and “have built everything from Olympic-sized pools to 90-foot-long water features.”

They added, “We bring more than 20 years of experience to the table and look forward to the challenge of building projects that are difficult.”

Detailed plans obtained from the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety show the pool’s layout and also list a second contractor from Pool Engineering, Inc.

The U.S. Sun has reached out to Sydney’s rep for comment on Jonathan’s involvement with the project.

The 1930s-era estate sits on 1.25 acres and offers roughly 4,477 square feet of interior space, featuring five bedrooms and four bathrooms.

The original listing highlights the site’s strong potential for a complete rebuild.

In addition to the two-story main house, the property includes a detached guest residence tucked behind it.

When Sydney and Jonathan took ownership, the land was choked with overgrowth, leaving them with an extensive cleanup.

The couple were first connected in 2018 and announced their engagement in 2022.

It is believed they quietly separated around January 2025, with the breakup widely confirmed by March of that year.

NEW ROMANCE

Sweeney later publicly acknowledged she was single and focusing on herself in a May interview.

But by the summer of last year, it was clear she had already found love again, as she was linked to music exec Scooter, who finalized his divorce from wife Yael, the mother of his three children, in 2022.

Sydney and Scooter first stepped out together at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s wedding in June, and they have since been photographed on romantic dates.

Scooter is reportedly worth $500 million, earned from years of managing major artists, including Justin Bieber, and later selling his company.

He owns several lavish homes, including a $65 million mansion in Brentwood, Los Angeles.

Although Sydney’s net worth stands at around $40million, she already has a property portfolio.

She owns a $3 million Tudor-style home just a mile down the road from her Hollywood compound, bought in 2021 after she found fame.

She also snapped up a lavish waterfront retreat in the Florida Keys, purchased in June 2024 for $13.5 million.

Designed for resort-style living, the home includes a private gym, a 520-bottle wine room, and a built-in aquarium.

Outside, the property offers docking for at least six boats, parking for multiple cars, and a saltwater infinity pool overlooking the water, complete with a swim-up bar and in-pool seating.
