"Homewrecker" is a song by the American singer-songwriter Sombr. It was released on February 5, 2026, through Warner Records and Sombr's own imprint SMB. The song was written solely by Sombr, with production handled by him alongside Tony Berg. The song was sent to US pop radio on February 10.[2]

The song peaked at number 15 on the Billboard Hot 100 and reached the top ten in Australia, Ireland, Latvia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom, among others.

Background and release

On February 4, 2026, Sombr posted a snippet of the song on his Instagram, captioned "homewrecker drops Thursday at 3 p.m. PST", alongside Milo Manheim and Quenlin Blackwell.[3] The song marked his first release of 2026, following his 2025 singles "12 to 12" and "Undressed". Its release came shortly after his performance at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards on February 1.[4]

Composition

"Homewrecker" is an "upbeat pop song"[5] in which Sombr addresses a love interest who is unavailable. In the song, he expresses that, despite not wanting to insult the partner of the love interest or interfere in their relationship, that he would be a better match.[6]

Commercial performance

"Homewrecker" marked Sombr's fifth entry on the Billboard Global 200,[7] debuting at number 28 on the chart dated February 21, 2026,[8] before reaching number 21 in its third week.[9] On the Billboard Hot 100, the song debuted at number 31,[10] and climbed to number 24 in its third week.[11] The debut marked Sombr's highest first-week position on the Hot 100 to date; his previous entries, "Back to Friends", "12 to 12", and "Undressed", debuted at numbers 90,[12] 95,[13] and 96,[14] respectively. The song also became his fourth top-ten entry on the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart, peaking at number three.[15] In Canada, "Homewrecker" debuted at number 25 on the Canadian Hot 100 in the same week as its US and Global 200 debuts,[16] and entered the top 20 in its third week at number 18.[17]

In the United Kingdom, "Homewrecker" debuted at number fourteen for the chart dated February 13, 2026. Two weeks later, it reached number five, marking Sombr's second top-five single after "Undressed".[18] In Ireland, the song became the singer's fourth top-five single, peaking at number four.[18] In Australia, it entered the ARIA Singles Chart at number 18 on the chart dated February 16, 2026,[19] and reached number six in its third week.[20] In New Zealand, the single debuted at number 26 for the week beginning February 13, 2026,[21] and peaked at number 10 the following week.[22]

Music video

The accompanying music video was released alongside the song on February 5, 2026, and was directed by Gus Black.[23] Visually inspired by Western films,[24] the video reflects the song's themes and depicts the singer caught in a "love triangle" with characters portrayed by media personality and model Quenlin Blackwell and actor Milo Manheim. Manheim serves as the director within the video. By the end of the video, Sombr and Blackwell's characters are shown falling in love,[6] having earlier displayed "undeniable chemistry", while the "volatile director" is left without anyone to bond with.[5]
