Emily Ratajkowski’s relationship with music producer Jeff Magid began in December 2014 and lasted about three years. Known for being “inseparable,” the couple lived together in downtown L.A. and frequently appeared at events like Paris Fashion Week and Coachella in 2017.

However, they parted ways in early 2018, with sources citing their demanding careers—his busy travel schedule and her rising fame—as reasons for the split, which left them with limited time together.

“My boyfriend is super confident and was raised by his mum, so he also genuinely loves and admires women. Not just ‘Oh yeah, women are cool’. He deeply loves and respects women, so he loves what I’m all about,” she said about music producer Jeff Magid in an interview published in the August 2017 issue of Harper’s Bazaar Australia.
