In late February 2024, Berry confirmed that she and Apa are no longer together in an Instagram Q&A that was later shared onTikTok, saying that she was “happier” post-split.

Not long after, the duo sparked rumors that they had secretly gotten married. In October 2021, Apashared a video of himselfpouring Berry’s breast milk into his coffee with the caption, “My wife is a milk machine and I love it,” prompting fans to wonder if the two had privately tied the knot.

“I don’t think we need to put a label on love, but do I want to get married? Yes,” he said, before confirming they hadn’t wed and pointing to his naked ring finger.

In addition to modeling, Berry has also found success onInstagram, racking up over one million followers to date. In an interview withModels.com, Berry explained how she she started building her online presence in order to advance her career.

“I saw in it a business opportunity that I didn’t want to lose and I started to love the creative part of it, so I did my best to become who I am today,” she said. And while Berry never set out to become an influencer, she eventually started to understand the impact of her following and how she could use it for good.

“For example, I started to notice that when many girls started to write to me to thank me for helping them accept their body because seeing that I accept mine was inspiring for them,” she explained.

Berry’s Instagram feed is full of photos from her travels around the world, though during their relationship, the model has been spending much of her time inNew Zealand, where Apa is from. The actor had hoped to move back to the country with Berry and Sasha after the final season ofRiverdalewrapped up in 2023.

“I’ll go back [to New Zealand]. Yeah, 100 per cent. I’m going back this year,” Apa previously toldUs Weekly, “I want my son to know his family over there. I gotta convince my girl to think about moving over there. Maybe.”

She revealed that she and Apa split in 2024

In late February 2024, an Instagram follower asked Berry if she and Apa were still a couple, to which the model responded “no.”

She didn’t go into the details behind their split, but she did mention that they are “doing the best we can” when it comes to co-parenting Sasha.

“I think it’s better to have separated parents who are happy and can be the best versions of themselves rather than stay together if it’s not working," she said. “What hurts me the most is that I don’t have my son 50 percent of the time, which means I don’t know 50 percent of his life. That’s something that’s been a little difficult to accept.”
