When news broke that DJ James Kennedy is expecting a child, his ex, astrologer and reality star Ally Lewber, said she felt surprisingly indifferent — a reaction she described candidly on a recent podcast. Her calm response, reflections on their turbulent relationship and the events that led to their split have reignited public interest in the couple’s past and their current lives.
Ally Lewber’s candid response to pregnancy reports
On the “Scheananigans With Scheana Shay” podcast, Lewber admitted she was taken aback by how little the pregnancy announcement affected her. She recalled first seeing Kennedy, 34, at Coachella in April beside a young blond companion.

Lewber, 30, said she hadn’t known he was in a relationship and watched the festival footage with little emotional reaction. She offered him well wishes and noted a long-standing difference between them: he wanted to become a father quickly, while she was unsure.
She also said she is not in touch with Kennedy now, stressing, “I promise,” when asked about their communication.
Key moments in the relationship and split
Their romance began publicly in January 2022, and tensions mounted over time. Events that followed led to a formal end to the partnership in early 2025.
- January 2022: The couple went public with their relationship.
- December 2024: Kennedy was arrested in an incident that drew media attention.
- January 2025: Lewber moved out and confirmed the breakup to followers.
After leaving their shared home, Lewber posted a long message online expressing support for Kennedy’s recovery and mental health journey, while clarifying she did not want criminal charges pressed in the aftermath of the December incident.

In later interviews, Lewber described the confrontation as a heated argument linked to concerns about Kennedy’s drinking. She said the situation escalated and left both parties shaken.
She has described living with constant tension toward the end of the relationship, saying she often felt she had to monitor his moods to avoid fights. On the podcast, she thanked friends and family for urging her to set boundaries, including blocking him to break a pattern she called toxic.
