Why did Abby Roberts and Noen Eubanks break up? She blamed "long distance."

The content creators went their separate ways in September of 2020, after months of speculation about their relationship status. During the pandemic lockdowns, Abby and Noen were candid about struggling through a long-distance romance. 

Noen has been based in Los Angeles, while Abby lives in London.

The makeup expert's last photo with Noen was posted in late August of 2020, but she admitted in the caption that it had been taken "a few months back."

Following their breakup, Abby took to Instagram live to discuss what happened. She shared the reasoning for the split: "It was because of the distance and corona," she said during the live stream. "That's all you guys need to know."

Later on, she reiterated that the distance was "really, really difficult" for them.

She also said that it was a "mutual decision" and that blame couldn't be placed directly on either one of them.
