As of October 1st, 2025, influencer Maggie Thurmon, 23, is continuing to open up about her struggles amid her rumored split from pop singer Benson Boone, 23. In a recent video, Thurmon admitted that she had "kind of disappeared" after starting her book club Instagram account less than two weeks before the reported split.
Thurmon revealed that she has been finding it difficult to pick up a book, as she can't stop thinking about the "things that are currently making [her] sad" and the "things [she's] overthinking." She said she hasn't been able to "push them aside long enough to get into a story."
Last week, Thurmon returned to social media for the first time since the rumored split, sharing a "girls night edition" get-ready-with-me video. The next day, she posted a conversation with her dad, who told her, "I'm ready to see the phoenix rise out of the ashes," referring to Thurmon as the "phoenix."
The split rumors were further fueled when Boone, 23, told the audience at his concert that "sometimes people leave your life," captured in fan-recorded footage. Multiple outlets later reported their separation, though Boone's representatives did not respond to requests for comment.
Thurmon and Boone first went public with their relationship in mid-2024, attending several high-profile events together. Thurmon was also present at the 2025 Grammys to support Boone's viral performance.
