Love doesn’t always follow a straight path. Sometimes, it takes a detour before finding its way back. Everyone can agree that there will be some downtimes in relationships. For some couples, conflicts can be too much and they decide to go their separate ways. But a breakup doesn’t necessarily mean the end of the road. Let’s take a look at six Black couples who called it quits only to spin the block again.

Ryan Destiny, 30, recently confirmed that she and Keith Powers, 32, have rekindled their relationship. Dishing on their romance, Destiny told People in Feburary that they are “best friends” before professing her love for him.
She said, “I just love him so much and I just appreciate him every step of the way. He’s such a cheerleader for me, as I am for him. It just means everything. We’re just best friends—you know, we’re more than best friends.”
The news comes three years after People magazine reported their breakup in 2022, which tore up the hearts of their fans. At the time, the couple had been dating for four years and had become a favorite for many.
A source told People that the two would still be close friends but were going to be “taking time to focus on themselves and their emerging careers.”
Around spring 2023, they were seen out publicly on numerous occasions. However, they never confirmed if they were dating again until recently.
