As for Powell's relationship with Gigi Paris, a source told People magazine that they had been on the rocks since the release of 'Top Gun'. The long-distance filming in Australia for 'Anyone But You' ultimately led to their decision to break up. The source clarified that Gigi did not suspect any cheating between Powell and Sydney.

Regarding Gigi's decision to unfollow Sydney on social media, the source explained, "Gigi only unfollowed Sydney on social media because Sydney never followed her back. This had nothing to do with Glen and Sydney. Gigi is aware that Glen and Sydney never hooked up." They further emphasized that Powell takes his work seriously, which put a strain on the relationship.
