Emma Roberts might be adding another complicated situation to her complex dating history. According to The Blast, Rachel Bilson discovered some potentially incriminating text messages between her partner, Hayden Christensen, and Roberts, in 2017, which purportedly played a role in her decision to end their relationship. In particular, there was a slew of texts that made Bilson think the two were more than just colleagues. Despite sharing a child with Christensen, it seems the content of the messages was enough for Bilson to call it quits shortly after finding them.

Nonetheless, the alleged love triangle involving the three actors was never officially confirmed by any of the parties involved despite an insider confirming to Us Weekly that Roberts was the reason they split. Additionally, a source close to the former couple clarified to People that Bilson and Christensen were already experiencing relationship trouble at the time. "Rachel is very outgoing, and her friends are very important to her," they explained. "Hayden is the opposite. He can be very antisocial." 

Another insider shared with Us that Bilson and Christensen had been having problems for months before officially parting ways and calling off their engagement. While Roberts may have contributed to their breakup in some way, Bilson and Christensen's decade-long relationship seems to have already been hit with significant issues before the "Scream Queens" star ever came into the picture.
