Emma Stone dumped Andrew Garfield because he was ‘in a dark place’
Emily Ross The first week in April, Star Magazine claimed that Emma Stone and Andew Garfield had “hit a rough patch” and had decided to go on a break. Sources emphasized that the split was mostly about timing, schedules and the fact that Andrew was thousands of miles away, filming a movie. A week later, all of the legit gossip outlets confirmed the news – Us Weekly, People, E! News all said pretty much the same thing, that the break probably wasn’t permanent, but that they were on a break. Now Us Weekly says that Emma and Andrew actually had real problems beyond competing schedules, and that Emma dumped Andrew because she’s totally done with him. Whoa.
They’ll always have The Amazing Spider-Man. As reported earlier this month, Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone went their separate ways recently after dating for more than three years. And while sources initially told Us Weekly they were just taking a breather, an insider now says their blockbuster romance is over for good.
Stone, 26, “ended things and moved back to L.A.,” the source reveals in the April 27 issue of Us. “It’s finished. It’s not just a break.”
One factor in their apparent split was Garfield’s intense commitment to his role as a 17th-century Jesuit in director Martin Scorsese’s upcoming movie Silence, which costars Adam Driver and Liam Neeson.
“He’d been in a dark place for months, getting into his role,” a second insider tells Us of the Never Let Me Go actor, 31, who lost nearly 40 pounds in preparation for the film and has been shooting in Taiwan since January. “He wasn’t being the best partner.”
My gut reaction, weeks ago, was that Andrew was a fool for letting Emma go, but I also believe that HE is the high-maintenance one. He’s the one with drama and issues, he’s the one letting his ego get in the way of his relationships. So, yes, I can totally see why Emma would reach a point where she was all, “You know what? I’m tired of the drama. I’m done.” Poor Emma. Well, pretty much every dude out there wants Emma to be his girlfriend, so I’m interested in seeing what her next dating-move will be.
