The love story of Avril Lavigne, who found her soulmate when she had decided to ‘retire’ from relationships

There are people who, despite going through several breakups, are never single because they can’t be alone, and that’s okay! Avril Lavigne is an example of a person who had many broken relationships, but never gave up on love and used frustrations to mature.

O awesome.club brings the story of Avril Lavigne through twenty years of broken relationships and marriages, to what seems to be her soulmate!

Avril’s name means April in French, and was chosen by her father. The Canadian girl had her singing aptitude recognized by her parents for the first time at the age of 2, when she sang a religious song on her way home from church. As she grew older, her parents supported her, buying her microphones, keyboards and various guitars, and turning her basement into a studio. In addition, they took their daughter to perform at fairs, where she sang country hits.

Avril was “discovered” by the music industry after winning, in 1999, a radio station contest to perform with singer Shania Twain, one of her inspirations. It didn’t take long for her to get a contract and record her first album Let Go, in 2002, at the age of 17, already with the famous skater look and the hits Complicated and Sk8er Boi that marked the time. The record fit like a glove among teenagers, represented in the lyrics sung by her.

With her first success at the age of 17 to 18, Avril proved to be a precocious person. So much so that she married singer Deryck Whibley at age 22. They dated for three years but had been friends since she was 17. After three years of marriage, the singer announced that they were splitting up and “moving on on a positive note.” However, they remain excellent friends: “Everyone is always surprised that we are still close. Deryck is the most talented person I know.”

Then Avril dated Brody Jenner, a model and reality TV celebrity, son of Linda Thompson and Caitlyn Jenner. However, the relationship lasted only two years, coming to an end in 2012. Avril and Brody had conflicting opinions about marriage. While she wanted to settle down, he didn’t think he was ready for it. In addition, the singer was preparing to travel on tour, which meant an additional complication in the relationship that was already not going well.

The following year, Avril married Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger after dating for six months. The couple called the ceremony, which was decorated in a Gothic style, unforgettable. Chad, ten years older than the bride, cried with emotion when he saw her in a black dress and bouquet, and Avril was also emotional: “I saw him and he was so calm and happy. A tear rolled down her cheek and he wiped it away. It felt so good walking up to him. I felt like a complete woman.”

However, their relationship went through a trial by fire: Avril was diagnosed with lyme disease. Chad, even with his band commitments, was by his wife’s side as much as possible. “He’s been very supportive,” she said. The singer was bedridden for five months and found in the music and the support of the fans the strength to heal and get back on her feet. Her health was restored, but her union with Chad didn’t last and ended just two years after the ceremony.

Paraphrasing the title of one of her first hits, Complicated, Avril realized that having a relationship is really complicated. “Yes, love is difficult and relationships are not easy. I went through a phase where I was like, ‘I’m going to be independent and have some alone time for a minute.’ Avril Lavigne has shown herself to be a romantic woman, but she has had a few good times with it.

“Honestly, I really believed in love. And I got frustrated with it. Then I finally pulled myself together and had one more relationship that once again fell apart. I thought, ‘I can’t believe I’ve been hurt or mistreated by so many people. So she decided to take a break from relationships, bought a house and started to take care of herself more. “I’m the only one I can trust.”

The break didn’t last long. In late 2020, Avril met, through her friend Machine G. Kelly, the singer Mod Sun, with whom she recorded the song Flames. The artists showed incredible chemistry in the clip and created a connection through music that migrated to their personal lives. Mod stated that “We bonded just talking about music. It’s even hard to say because, gee, it’s Avril Lavigne, but she said, ‘I really like your music, send me other stuff you’re working on.’

Avril, on the other hand, was resistant to bonding with her new friend Mod Sun, due to her past disappointments. “I felt like there was a storm knocking me over time after time. I was tired of it. I needed to take care of myself urgently. So I bought a house and didn’t expect to have to plan a future with a guy again.” But it seems that the singer’s romantic heart spoke louder again.

In the same month that they recorded Flames, Mod Sun tattooed Avril Lavigne’s name on his neck, which was already a sign that plans not to get involved were going down the drain. actress Megan Fox and her fiance Machine G. Kelly. In September 2021, the couple sent discretion to the air by appearing on the red carpet of the MTV Music Video Awards. On Mod’s instagram, the “subtle” caption: “Everything is a dream by your side”.

At the same time that she was taking her first steps in dating Mod, Avril was working on the song Love Sux which, ironically, talks about her past disappointments in love. “I thought, ‘Okay, don’t say you love me unless you really do. Because I don’t want to be hurt again.” The singer said in an interview with Kelly Clarkson that she went to the studio having overcome the lost loves, with an album based on it and, days later, she was already dating. “Literally, I’m never single,” she joked.

In March 2022, when the couple already had some projects together, Avril was surprised by the long-awaited proposal. Mob proved to be a romantic boyfriend, as we have seen that she likes, as she chose the city of Paris, France, as the setting for the request, with the Eiffel Tower in the background. To mark the date, the singer posted the photo on her Instagram with a caption in French that, translated, says “Yes! I love you forever”.

As for Mod’s little romanticism is silly, your post to remember the occasion was as sweet as your request. He said in the caption that he already knew Avril was his love from the day they met. He added: “You are too beautiful for my words to describe. I grabbed your hand and gave a sigh, I said ‘will you marry me?’ and she said ‘yes’. I love you Avril”.

Avril said goodbye to the break in relationships and entered the relationship with Mod. So much so that she accepted to work as an actress for the first time in the film that the now fiancé is doing with the same couple they left before, Machine G. Kelly and Megan Fox. In the film, Avril and Mod will be a couple, and the singer demanded to repeat the recording over and over again the day they did a kissing scene. The movie is called Good Mourning and it premiered in the US in May 2022.

In addition, the singer also celebrated the 20th anniversary of the release of her first album, Let Go, in a very nostalgic way. She recreated the album cover on the same street in New York, with the same clothes, the same pose and the same face that looks like it hasn’t aged. Twenty years later, in addition to looking the same, Avril remains the same skater girl, full of attitude but with a perhaps hopeless romantic heart.
