Ariana Biermann is officially single again.
The “Next Gen NYC” star confirmed that she and Hudson McLeroy have split after quietly giving their relationship another chance earlier this year. Ariana shared the update on August 6, just weeks after confirming that she and Hudson were back together but still “figuring it out.”
“I’m a single girl,” Ariana told E! News. “He will always be like a dear friend and a close person in my life. There will always be love there.”
The latest split comes after plenty of back-and-forth between the longtime couple, whose October 2025 breakup played out on “Next Gen NYC” season 2. Ariana and Hudson reconnected in early 2026 and eventually decided to see if their relationship could work again.
But Ariana said their lives still weren’t lining up.
Ariana Biermann Reveals Why Hudson McLeroy Romance Ended Again
Ariana explained that she and Hudson ultimately realized they were moving in different directions.
“Our paths right now are just still in two different ways,” she told the outlet. “We gave it a shot one more time, and it just didn’t work out, but we’re in a great place still with each other.”
Despite ending their romantic relationship again, Ariana made it clear there is no bad blood between them.
“There’s so much love, and I care so much about him,” she added. “I just want what’s best for him.”
Ariana and Hudson initially called it quits in October 2025 after three official years of dating.
“While these things are never easy, we both know what’s best for us right now,” Ariana wrote in a statement at the time. “We are so grateful for all of the love and support you’ve shown us over the years. Sometimes life takes you in different directions and that’s OK. Love you all.”
Ariana & Hudson Gave Their Relationship ‘One More’ Chance
The breakup comes just weeks after Ariana opened up to Bravo Insider about reconnecting with Hudson.
“We were both going through a pretty rough time in January and February, and he was going through some especially hard things, and I really wanted to be there for him no matter what,” Ariana said in July. “He’s somebody that will always be important to me, and we just kind of started talking in the process of me trying to be there for him and vice versa. And one thing led to another, and here we are today.”
Even then, Ariana acknowledged that their relationship wasn’t completely settled.
“I feel like that’s kind of a day by day thing, ’cause we want to get through the things, the reasons why I left,” she explained. “We broke up with each other, you know? That’s why it’s still up in the air in a way.”
During a July 22 appearance on “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen,” Ariana again confirmed they were together while acknowledging they still had issues to work through.
“We are together, but it’s kind of like we’re still figuring it out,” she said. “I don’t want to have the back and forth again. I just want to make sure that we can still grow independently.”
Less than a month later, Ariana has confirmed that she’s back to being a “single girl,” while Hudson will remain an important person in her life.
