Jason Segel has been spreading his charm all over Hollywood for more than two decades, and while he’s had massive success in his career, he hasn’t been as lucky in love. The 42-year-old actor’s romantic life has played out in the public eye since the early 2000s, making headlines in April 2021 when he split from girlfriend Alexis Mixter after eight years.
Mixter announced the breakup in an emotional since-deleted Instagram post where she assured fans that there was no bad blood between her and Segel. “It is odd to write about the end of a relationship, especially when the friendship that still exists is so full of life,” she wrote, per People. “But change happens and we made the decision quite a while ago to let ourselves grow away from what our relationship had been and into what it was becoming.”
The artist also noted that it was strange to have to address the split publicly, writing: “Some won’t understand why it is necessary and that’s okay. Having a public romantic relationship is not easy. Ending one feels like navigating a road that doesn’t even exist. We are private people when it comes to our personal lives and I intend to keep it that way.”
Before his longtime relationship with Mixter, Segel was linked to Michelle Williams, among others. Keep reading to learn more about Segel’s dating history.

Alexis Mixter (2013-2021)
During their eight years together, Mixter often shared glimpses of their life together on social media.
“I’m a day late because yesterday was spent celebrating you, the way it should be, unplugged and surrounded by friends and family,” Mixter wrote in a birthday tribute for Segel in January 2020, per People. “In your 40 years on this earth you’ve done so much and come so far. I’m inspired by you every day and you’ve taught me that my heart is big enough to hold more love than I ever imagined.”
In her breakup post, Mixter thanked Segel for their time together. “This post is a tribute to love and friendship and those relationships that make life worth living. Thank you J for being my best friend,” she wrote. “The person who shares all my favorite jokes, sees who I really am and all I want to be, loves me unconditionally and makes me always strive to be bigger and better than I was yesterday. I will never stop cheering you on with every cell of my body. I will never stop loving you unconditionally.”
Segel has yet to publicly address their split.
