RuPaul’s Drag Race judges Javier Ambrossi and Javier Calvo split after 13 years together and seven years engaged - but will still work together
A couple who are both judges on RuPaul’s Drag Race have broken up after 13 years together - also ending their seven year engagement.
Javier Ambrossi and Javier Calvo, who are judges on RuPaul’s Drag Race España will reportedly continue to work together on the show despite their break-up.
The couple, who have been judges on Drag Race España for five seasons, also starred on one season of All Stars and were guest judges on RuPaul’s Drag Race Global All Stars. They also created HBO Max’s Veneno show together
The pair, who had been together since 2012, got engaged in September 2017 during the premiere of The Call, with 41-year-old Ambrossi asking Calvo, aged 34, to marry him in the middle of the cinema. He said at the time: “The film talks about the transformative love I feel for Javi, the love of my life. I think it’s time, I wasn’t going to do it, but do you want to marry me?” It is not thought they they ever married.
According to reports from local publication El País, Ambrossi and Calvo “ended their romantic relationship” but that they’re both committed to continuing “all of their shared professional commitments,” such as judging Drag Race España.
The outlet also reported that Calvo was “alone at the La Revuelta meeting this Monday (November 10),” with Ambrossi was noticeably absent. The outlet added: “Sources indicate that, from now on, it will be increasingly common to see them separately.”
The pair have yet to comment on their reported split. On social media, Calvo has mostly re-shared posts from the event earlier this week, while Ambrossi's Instagram page appears to have been deactivated for the moment.
