Mod Sun will keep holding onto his friends after his breakup with Avril Lavigne.
More than a week after news broke that the couple of more than two years had ended their engagement, Mod Sun—born Derek Ryan Smith—tweeted a cryptic message about leaning on his inner circle.
“I’m so grateful to have real friends who will sit on the phone with me for 2 hours,” the God Save the Teen musician wrote on March 5. “If you got those people in your life, do not let them go.”
The following day, Avril was spotted packing on the PDA with Tyga at Paris Fashion Week, where they were photographed holding hands and kissing at a party celebrating Hunter Schafer‘s campaign with Mugler.
While Avril has yet to speak out about her relationship with Tyga, her rep confirmed to E! News on Feb. 21 that the punk rocker and Mod Sun went their separate ways. However, a spokesperson for Mod Sun noted at the time that the two were “engaged as of three days ago when he left for tour so if anything has changed, that’s news to him.”
