Steven Tyler and Aimee Preston are facing split speculation after 11 years of dating.
Multiple sources told TMZ on Friday that the pair — who first began dating in 2014 — had split for unknown reasons.
However, they later reported that sources “close to” the Aerosmith frontman and Preston said they actually hadn’t broken up and are “just fine.”
A rep for Tyler referred Page Six to TMZ’s update, and Preston did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
Tyler, 77, and Preston, 38, began dating two years after the Aerosmith frontman hired her as his personal assistant back in 2012 — it’s worth noting that Preston is a decade younger than the “Sweet Emotion” hitmaker’s daughter Liv Tyler, 38, whom he shares with ex Bebe Buell.
The Grammy winner also shares daughter Mia Tyler, 46, with first wife, Cynthia Foxe, to whom he was married from 1978 to 1987.
The “Crazy” singer tied the knot with his second wife, Teresa Barrick, in 1988, and the rocker shares daughter Chelsea Anna Tallarico, 36, and son Taj Monroe Tallarico, 34, with her.
Following Tyler’s divorce from Barrick in 2006, he briefly became engaged to Erin Brady before calling it off in 2013.
Preston and the “Love in an Elevator” hitmaker made their public debut with a PDA-packed appearance at Elton John’s annual Oscars party in 2016.
They’ve since been spotted together at a number of Hollywood events.
In February 2024, they nuzzled and kissed on the red carpet at Tyler’s Jam for Janie Grammy viewing party at the Hollywood Palladium.
In legal documents, he vehemently denied the allegation and said the relationship was consensual. Holcomb’s case is set to go to trial in 2026, per Billboard.
He was again sued in 2023 by Jeanne Bellino, who claimed Tyler sexually assaulted her in 1975 when she was 17 — a claim the rock icon also denied. The lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice in 2024.
News of Tyler’s split from Preston comes over a year after Aerosmith announced that they will no longer be touring due to the lead singer’s vocal injuries.
“Sadly, it is clear, that a full recovery from his vocal injury is not possible. We have made a heartbreaking and difficult, but necessary, decision – as a band of brothers – to retire from the touring stage,” they wrote in April 2024.
