Lupita Nyong’o confirmed that she and Joshua Jackson have broken up, nearly a year after they were first romantically linked.

The Oscar winner, 41, told Harper’s Bazaar UK in an interview published Wednesday that she’ll credit any future romance to the love she has for her cat.

“My love for my cat is singular. If I’m ever so lucky to be in a romantic relationship again, it’ll be because of him,” the “Us” star said of her feline friend Yoyo.

The actress revealed she “was ready to shut [the romance] door and lock it and bolt it” following her heart-wrenching split from sports commentator Selema Masekela in 2023, shortly before she and 46-year-old Jackson were spotted together late last October.

But Yoyo “has ensured that my heart remains open,” she shared of the cat she adopted after parting ways with Masekela.

On Oct. 19, 2023, Nyong’o wrote in a lengthy Instagram post that she wanted to “publicly dissociate myself from someone I can no longer trust.”

“I find myself in a season of heartbreak because of a love suddenly and devastatingly extinguished by deception,” the “Black Panther” star continued.

Though she said she was “tempted to run into the shadows and hide,” Nyong’o was instead “choosing to face the pain … trusting that this too shall pass.”

That same week, she was spotted dancing alongside Jackson at a Janelle Monae concert in Los Angeles.

Nyong’o and the “Dr. Death” star confirmed their relationship by early December, just weeks after Jackson and ex-wife Jodie Turner-Smith reached a custody agreement concerning their daughter, Juno, now 4.

Early last October, the British model and “Queen & Slim” star, 38, filed to end her nearly four-year marriage to Jackson, listing Sept. 13 as their date of separation.

She dubbed the move the “bravest thing in the world” earlier this year, telling U.K. outlet, The Times that “sometimes things we really want to work just don’t end up working. And that’s OK.”
