Pink has publicly swatted away fresh rumours about her marriage to Carey Hart after reports claimed the pair had split — and she did it with a sharp, slightly surreal Instagram video that put the spotlight back on the outlets pushing the story.

It was reported that the singer, 46, and motocross star Hart, 50, had gone their separate ways again. Within hours, Pink responded in her own way — not with a statement drafted by representatives, but with a clip that mocked the premise and challenged the media to focus on what she framed as more serious issues.

A Viral Video, Then a Swift Denial

In an Instagram video dated February 26, 2026, Pink began with an offhand moment at home — joking she had left her refrigerator open as she headed for a beer — before saying she had just learned she was separated.

She thanked People and Us Weekly, then asked whether they also wanted to tell her children, who she said were unaware of any separation.

From there, Pink shifted gears. Instead of dwelling on her relationship, she urged attention on bigger topics, name-checking the Epstein files and wider issues including racism and misogyny in sport. The singer added:

"Or do you maybe wanna talk about the fact that I got nominated the first year I was eligible for the Rock and Roll [expletive] Hall of Fame? Do you wanna talk about my accomplishments or do you only wanna talk about my supposed demise?"

She ended by calling the report untrue, telling outlets she described as "trash news" that they could do better, before signing off with a brief goodnight to fans.

The video was captioned, "Like I always say. If you don't hear it from me, don't believe the hype. Stay tuned though! Who knows what could happen next!?!"

What Triggered the Split Speculation

Pink and Hart married in Costa Rica in January 2006 after an on-and-off romance. Their engagement became part of pop culture lore when Pink proposed during the Pro 250 class finals, holding up a pit board reading "Will You Marry Me?" as Hart rode past mid-race.

When he initially continued, she followed up with another sign insisting she was serious, prompting him to pull over and accept.

However, the couple were last seen together publicly in September 2025 in New York City, and, at the time, observers noted that they appeared tense and were not wearing wedding rings.

As for the court of public opinion, the fresh wave of headlines prompted a flurry of online commentary, with reactions ranging from sympathy to speculation.

Speculation intensified after Pink did not publicly acknowledge their January wedding anniversary this year — a marked contrast to January 7, 2025, when she posted a smiling ski selfie of the pair bundled up on a snowy mountain, their heads pressed together against a backdrop of pine trees.

Hart did, however, publicly mark the singer's birthday five months ago. As for talks of a split, this is not the first time the pair have faced separation. In 2008, they announced they were splitting but remained on amicable terms. By the spring of 2009, the pair had reconciled and called off their divorce.

A Relationship With a Complicated Track Record

Pink and Hart's history has long been marked by public candour and periods of strain. The singer has also been frank about the reality of long-term commitment.

In a 2017 interview, she described Hart as steady and dependable, praising his approach to fatherhood and calling him a good man.

She also acknowledged that the relationship moved in cycles — sometimes intense affection, other times frustration, distance, and doubts about whether they were still working.

The musical star spoke about stretches where intimacy faded and the questions that can follow, before ultimately framing monogamy as something that requires ongoing effort.

Social Media Reacts – Sympathy, Speculation, and Snide Takes

As for the court of public opinion, the fresh wave of headlines prompted a flurry of online commentary, with reactions ranging from sympathy to speculation.

"They always seemed [sic] a lovely couple. That's a shame," one person commented. "Always got the impression those 2 were fighting to stay together, if it's not working, it's not working," another shared.

Others, however, were harsher. "I'm sure she's a lot to deal with on a daily basis. She's a good singer though," one netizen wrote.

"She completely emasculated that man over the years with her public comments. He always looked like he was in a hostage situation and was waiting for her to explode," another typed.

Some comments veered into speculation about sexuality. "Now they both can go chase women!" one person remarked, while another added, "That's sad for everyone involved but I didn't even know she was married to a man, I always thought she was a lesbian."

In the end, whether her defiant message puts an end to the speculation remains to be seen. But for now, the singer has made it clear that, if there is news about her marriage, it will come directly from her.
