Lady Gaga and Chicago Fire star Taylor Kinney broke hearts around the world last July, when the pair announced that they were ending their engagement after five years together due to conflicting schedules. But hope was sparked anew for fans on Friday night, when Lady Gaga performed at Wrigley Field in Chicago to a sold out crowd… including one Taylor Kinney.
Mother Monster shared an emotional post at the time of their breakup, writing, “Taylor and I have always believed we are soulmates. Just like all couples, we have ups and downs and we are taking a break. We are both ambitious artists, hoping to work through long-distance and complicated schedules to continue the simple love we have always shared.”
With rumors of both Kinney and Gaga moving on to other people, it looked like the final curtain had dropped on their relationship, despite her call for fans to “please root [them] on.”
Or did it?

Though Gaga did not acknowledge her ex’s presence onstage, telling fans instead, “You know who my favorite person that’s from Chicago is? My little dog Asia,” fans did claim to see him headed backstage with his crew post-show.
He went backstage with his squad after the show. Y'all, please get back together. My otp.
