Billie broke up with him in June 2019; it is unknown how long they were dating.
In her recently released documentary, Billie Eilish: The World’s a Little Blurry, their relationship was seen up close and personal, via Insider.
The documentary follows her from 2016 until 2020; in February 2019 during her Paris concert she said she felt ‘lonely’ and ‘miserable’ on Valentine’s Day.
She had told one of her team members that, and they asked her: ‘Q didn’t do anything?’ to which the star said: ‘Haven’t gotten anything. And the night before, he’d been really weird and distant and s**t.’
She told her team member: ‘It was totally fine, we’ve been great. But then they had this plan to go to Big Bear [Lake in California], like the whole squad was gonna go to Big Bear. I was just like, “You know what, have fun, don’t worry about me, I’m miserable, and I miss you, and I wish you would talk to me, and I have no one else to talk to.’
The 2019 Coachella performance by Billie was filled with flaws, with the star forgetting her lyrics to the song All The Good Girls Go To Hell, starting 40 minutes late, running out of breath and tripping on stage.
Following her 2019 Coachella performance she called him and asked him to see her, to which he simply said ‘I’ll try,’ after which she threw her phone to the ground.
Billie was only 17 at the time, marking it as her first appearance at Coachella.

In her documentary, she spoke out his absence from her Coachella prep, telling her brother Finneas O’Connell about it.
She told Finneas: ‘I said, “I’m getting you tickets for this, and the deal is that you have to spend time with me. You have to see me if I’m going to let you come for free.” I haven’t seen him in two and a half days.’
They broke up in June 2019 and she said in the documentary of their relationship: ‘There was just a lack of effort, I think. I literally was just like, “Dude, you don’t even have enough love to love yourself, you can’t love me. And you don’t. Like, you think you do.”‘

The star is set to headline the 2022 Coachella: ‘I’m headlining Coachella. I mean, that’s a crazy thing to say.’
Billie is headlining the festival alongside Harry Styles and Kanye West; the festival takes place April 2022 after it was canceled for two years straight due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Billie was interviewed for the magazine in January, weeks before Kanye demanded she apologize for her recent comments about Travis Scott and the Astroworld tragedy.
The Donda rapper started out by saying ‘come on Billie we love you’ and adding that no one intended for the tragedy to happen and that ‘Trav didn’t have any idea of what was happening when he was on stage.’
The 44-year-old musician then issued an ultimatum, saying, ‘I need Billie to apologize before I perform.’
‘Come on Billie we love you please apologize to Trav and to the families of the people who lost their lives,’ he started out his statement.
‘No one intended this to happen Trav didn’t have any idea of what was happening when he was on stage and was very hurt by what happened,’ he continued.
‘And yes Trav will be with me at Coachella but now I need Billie to apologize before I perform,’ he concluded, though it’s unclear whether Scott will be performing with the rapper on stage.

Eilish replaced Scott on the Coachella bill after the tragic events at Astroworld.
Meanwhile the singer commented back saying, ‘literally never said a thing about travis. was just helping a fan.’
Kanye’s statement comes after Eilish, 20, recently stopped her show to give an inhaler to a fan who couldn’t breathe, and made a comment that many took to be a dig at Scott.
After noticing a distressed fan, Eilish stopped her show and directed medical staff to administer aid to the fan and subsequently asked the other attendees to step back and let the individual in question regain their composure.
‘I wait for people to be OK until I keep going,’ the Ocean Eyes singer said, seeming to allude to Scott’s deadly Astroworld Festival while shaming the rapper’s conduct on stage.

The singer’s comment caused the audience to begin cheering loudly, and she proceeded to resume her show.
The incident involving Scott, 30, took place during the first night of the Astroworld Festival, which was held on November 5th of last year.
The performer’s fans began acting aggressively just after the start of his set, during which a crowd surge occurred and thousands were pushed towards the main stage.
During Scott’s performance, ten people were crushed by other fans and died from the effects of various ailments, including cardiac arrest and asphyxiation.

The concert was designated as a mass casualty event roughly halfway through its length.
However, the rapper continued to perform for his fans and brought out Drake to finish off his set, which ended around 10 PM.
Scott later garnered controversy for allegedly ignoring the events unfolding around him and was accused of ignoring concertgoers who had experienced medical issues during his set.

The star also told V magazine her thoughts about writing the latest James Bond theme song – No Time To Die – and what it meant to her.
She said: ‘It’s such an enormous honor to be a part of the small group of people that have been involved in the musical aspect of the Bond franchise. It’s a huge dream that my brother [Finneas O’Connell] and I have been dreaming about for as long as I can remember.’

The award winning artist talked about COVID-19 lockdowns and how it affected her: ‘ I did so much self-reflection and thinking about my life, and remembering my life, and going back to therapy and talking through my life – a lot was realized.’
Despite her worldwide fame, Billie says her home life has not changed.
‘My relationship with my home has not changed, just like with my parents and my brother. I think it’s a bit jarring for some people who grew up with me and haven’t seen me in a long time… [they] come over to see us and see that it’s exactly the same. It’s as if you walked in here and it’s 2003.’
Adding: ‘There’s no sign that a famous person exists within 200 feet of this area. I mean, it’s really funny. I have to remind myself what my life actually is to the outside world, because I just forget sometimes. My life really, honestly feels the same as it did when I was a child… except that I don’t have any friends.’
