The couple first got together in July of 2014. They first split over the holidays, reportedly because of the provocative film and the increased attention it was bringing to her life, but they rekindled their romance this summer. However, just last week, Johnson confirmed on The Ellen DeGeneres Showshe was not in a relationship.

Johnson also revealed on the show that she doesn't have too much luck when it comes to dating. Guys are afraid to approach her, thanks in part to her high-profile role as Anastasia Steele in the movie adaptation of E.L. James’ racy novel.
