Rumors circulated that Corgan and Courtney Love rekindled their romance during the Pumpkins' 1994 Lollapalooza tour, after Kurt Cobain's death.

Corgan and Fabian separated late 1995, and divorced in 1997.

Corgan refused to discuss the subject in interviews, saying, 'There is not and will not be any public record on my marriage – that's one thing I have to draw lines around.;

In late 1995, he started dating photographer Yelena Yemchuk, who later contributed to several Smashing Pumpkins videos and album art.

In 2005, Corgan dated musician Emilie Autumn for a number of months and in early 2006, Corgan moved in with Love and her daughter, Frances Bean Cobain.

According to Love, he had his own wing in her new Hollywood Hills mansion.

By 2010, Corgan and Love were on bad terms and he said: 'I have no interest in supporting her in any way, shape or form. You can't throw enough things down the abyss with a person like that.'

The two got into a Twitter war about songs he wrote for her and she used,

Jessica Origliasso from The Veronicas became his girlfriend in 2010 but they split in 2012: 'It's one of those things. It's really difficult when you spend so much time apart,' he said.
