The Broken Heart AI Photo prompt and model
Broken Heart AI Photo is made with GPT Image 2.6 by OpenAI. The prompt behind it has 5 parts, and the timing is what makes or breaks it.
- Model
- GPT Image 2.6
- Mode
- Photo to image
- Length
- One still image, vertical 2:3
- Input
- 1 photo
- Identity lock Your photo is the only source for the face, hair, build and clothes, with no beautifying or slimming.
- Scene One of three set scenes: kneeling with roses, leaning under a neon heart, or holding a glowing heart.
- Look Heavy rain, wet skin, a red and teal colour grade, film grain and shallow depth of field.
- The heart A large glossy heart cracked in two with a glowing crack, always clearly broken.
- Rules One adult only, five-finger hands, and no text, logos, watermark, blood or extra faces.
Using the person in Image 1, create one photorealistic cinematic vertical 2:3 portrait in the viral broken heart style. The person's face, hair, age, skin tone, build and outfit all come from Image 1.…
Why it goes wrong when you do it yourself
- Chat prompts that only say make it sad often change the face into a model-like stranger, because identity is never locked.
- The heart ends up a normal heart or a drawing when the prompt does not ask for a glossy object cracked in two with a glowing crack.
- Without a depth-of-field and rain description the whole picture comes out flat, with the person and background equally sharp.
- Long pasted prompts add extra text, captions and faces; the set scenes here ban them.

How to make your Broken Heart AI Photo image

Kneeling in the rain, neon heart on the wall, or holding the heart.

Save and post

What is the Broken Heart AI Photo trend?
Updated · videosi is an independent tool. It is not affiliated with TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, or with the owners of any trend, song, game or brand named on its pages.
Broken Heart AI photo is a sad portrait edit: you give an AI image editor, usually ChatGPT or Gemini, one photo of yourself and a long prompt, and it returns a cinematic picture of you in a rainy night scene next to a cracked red heart. The look is also searched as broken heart AI photo editing, broken heart AI prompt, sad AI photo editing or ChatGPT sad photo prompt. The videosi version makes that single image from one photo, so you do not paste a prompt anywhere.
The format did not appear overnight. The earliest dated tutorial we found is a TikTok from 1 November 2025 with a Gemini prompt (about 100,000 views at the time we looked), and tutorials with 77,000 to 216,000 views followed in March, April and June 2026, with Instagram-style reels and YouTube Shorts still being posted on 10 November 2026. Most posts are screen recordings: the finished image first, then a phone showing the prompt pasted into ChatGPT or Gemini. No single original creator is known, and posts use many different sounds.
Three scenes come up again and again, and they are the three on this page: kneeling on a wet street with roses and a cracked heart on the ground while a couple walks away, leaning on a graffiti wall under a huge neon broken heart, and holding a glowing cracked heart against the chest in the rain. Your face, hair, build and clothes come from your photo; the rain, light and heart are new. The result is a still vertical 2:3 image with no sound, not a video.
Broken Heart AI Photo: shot by shot
- Step 1
Your photo
Your face, hair, skin tone, build and clothes are taken from your photo.
- Step 2
Rainy night
Heavy rain, wet skin and a moody red and teal grade turn the picture into a heartbreak scene.
- Step 3
The broken heart
A large glossy heart, cracked in two with a glowing crack, is on the ground, on the wall as neon, or in your hands.
- Step 4
The sad pose
Kneeling, leaning with your head down, or eyes closed with your face tilted up, depending on the scene you pick.
- Step 5
Blurred background
A couple walking away or a neon alley sits out of focus behind you so your face stays sharp.
Tips for a better result
Clear face, even light
A front-facing photo in even light keeps your face accurate. Avoid sunglasses, hats and heavy filters.
Full length for two scenes
Kneeling and the wall scene show your whole body; if your photo stops at the chest the model has to invent your outfit and legs.
One person only
Crop group photos to one person; the scenes have room for one.
Try all three
The scenes read differently, so make all three from the same photo and post the one you like best.
Good to know before you make a Broken Heart AI Photo image
- The rain, heart, light and background are new; the face, hair and clothes come from your photo.
- The result is one still image with no sound, vertical 2:3, not a video.
- Likeness is not guaranteed, and the heart or hands can occasionally look off; generating again usually fixes it.
- Photos of children are not allowed, and a failed or blocked generation returns its credit automatically.

A still AI portrait like the videosi Broken Heart AI photo is normal on TikTok and Instagram, but both platforms ask you to label AI-generated content, so turn on the AI label when you post. The image has no logos and shows only you.
