Mikayla Moves On

Beauty influencer Mikayla Nogueira is stepping into a fresh phase of life following her recent split from husband Cody Hawken.

The 27-year-old social media personality shared a candid TikTok update on Friday, March 6, revealing she was getting ready to head out on a date — less than a month after confirming the pair were divorcing. Nogueira, whose candid beauty content helped propel her to millions of followers and collaborations with major brands like L’Oréal and e.l.f. Cosmetics, hinted that the past several months have been anything but ordinary.

While acknowledging that fans are often curious about the details of her personal life, Nogueira suggested she’s choosing to keep most of the story private. “Honestly, not gonna lie. I wish I could share the tea on the craziness that has been my life like the last six…” she began in the video, trailing off before reiterating that she wants to maintain some boundaries.

Still, the influencer made it clear she’s feeling optimistic about what comes next. In the clip, she described entering a liberating new phase and said she feels lighter after navigating what she characterized as several emotionally challenging months.

The update arrives weeks after Nogueira publicly confirmed the end of her marriage to Hawken. She announced the divorce in a TikTok video posted on February 12. The couple had been together for five years and married in July 2023.

At the time, Nogueira told followers the decision was mutual and respectful. She also explained that although the announcement came in February, the couple had actually separated the previous year, giving her several months to privately process the change before sharing it publicly.

The influencer said she will not share the reasons behind the split, stressing that the breakup was amicable.

Nogueira rose to prominence during TikTok’s pandemic-era surge alongside creators like Addison Rae and Charli D’Amelio, building a following through candid beauty reviews and her recognizable New England accent. Her reach in the beauty space has also drawn attention from industry figures such as Huda Kattan.

Now entering a more private chapter of her life, Nogueira appears focused on moving forward while remaining a prominent voice in the online beauty community.
