Okay, guys, this is a little bit of a different episode today. It's been a long time that I've been processing a lot of this as well as Lance, but we've made the decision to get divorced. And I wanted to share this with you all, with us, together, for our son, because I know the rumor mill, people have already been speculating about it. You guys are really good private investigators. Truly.

People are perceptive.

Yeah. But really what this is, is, you know, us sharing with you all together. So it's on our terms and the way we want it to be said. And our story, because you only see about 1% of our lives online, and no one really knows what happens behind closed doors. No one really knows the struggles that we've gone through, the battles that we've tried to conquer. And it's sad, you know, with being a public figure that I have to do this, but it's for our son. And that's really why we're recording this today, is to protect him and also share our side before people start to draw conclusions or make assumptions about why.

Yeah, we just, you know, we decided that it's just best for us to move on and to, you know, live our separate lives. But we're still obviously going to be in each other's lives forever. And I have a lot of love for Savannah still and a ton of respect for her, and, you know, so we're just trying to do what's best and co parent. And, yeah, luckily, you know, thankfully, we're together in this and, you know, nothing crazy has happened. You know, no bad words like abuse or, you know, infidelity, thankfully. So, yeah, it is what it is. I don't know what else to say.

And I think people just, when they hear divorce, like, their first thing is like, oh, like somebody cheated or someone was abusive. And really, Lance and I, truthfully, we met at a really young age, and we were kind of like the last two people in our hometown that weren't, like, drug addicts or complete losers. And so we started hanging out, dating. And, you know, the truth really, if everyone wants it, is we were never compatible from the start. And we tried really, really hard, because I think both of us, through couples therapy, through our own therapy, through the trip we went through in Indonesia, really just learned that we both lacked a lot of self. And we're really codependent on 1:1. I can't talk today. So hard to talk about this. Really codependent on one another. And it was not serving us, and it was just keeping us kind of in this trauma bond and, like, circle. That just wasn't healthy. And it was affecting the way, you know, we treated one another. It was affecting, you know, our son. And it just, like, became too big to fix, if that makes sense. And weirdly enough, ever since we decided, you know, it was for the best for us to get divorced, we've gotten along so much better, which is great for our son and for Cyrus, who is our son. But, yeah, I mean, it's. It's sad because he has been, like, with me from the very beginning of my life in this industry, my career. We have a child together. And again, like, you know, we really, really did try to do everything to make it work, but, you know, I think it's hard to fix something that was broken from the start.
