Just hours after reports surfaced that The Bachelorette alum Rachel Lindsay’s husband Bryan Abosolo has filed for divorce, he released a statement on the split.
The 38-year-old lawyer Lindsay and 43-year-old chiropractor Abosolo first met on Season 13 of The Bachelorette, with Lindsay accepting his proposal in the finale.
They tied the knot in Cancun in August 2019, though it was revealed on Tuesday that Abosolo filed for divorce, listing New Year’s Eve as the date of separatation.
Following the initial report of their separation, Abosolo confirmed the split with a statement on his Instagram page Tuesday.
‘If you’ve been following me for awhile, you know I don’t like to put my personal affairs on social media and like to keep a safe space for our family,’ Abosolo began.

The news comes just a few weeks after Lindsay said on a podcast that they have been living ‘totally different lives.’
She added that the problem was their very different careers as he works up to 12 hours a day while she has more free time.
Speaking to DailyMail.com’s Russ Weakland at Project Angel Food’s 4th annual Lead With Love Fundraiser in Los Angeles back in June, Rachel opened up about her important plans for the coming year.
‘I am trying to take a step back and not work as much leaving 2023 – and going into 2024 with something new,’ she explained.
She told DailyMail.com: ‘I’d like to try a kid. I would like to have a kid. That’s something new for 2023, hopefully by 2024 that is something that happens.’
