Love Is Blind star finally breaks his silence on shocking divorce from wife
'I want to be clear: My goal was never to create drama or disrespect anyone'
Love Is Blind season one star Mark Cuevas has clapped back at his wife’s claims that she didn’t know they were getting a divorce, saying there are “two sides to every story.”
Mark recently announced the unexpected news that he and Aubrey Rainey would be getting a divorce after three years of marriage, however, the Love Is Blind star’s wife commented on the post that “this is news to me.”
He wrote in the initial announcement: “Aubrey and I decided to part ways a few weeks ago.
“This wasn’t an easy decision, but we both believe it’s the best path forward for our individual growth and for our family.
“Our top priority will always be our boys. We’re committed to co-parenting with love, respect, and teamwork so they feel supported and secure every step of the way.
“As we begin this new chapter, we kindly ask for your understanding and privacy, especially for the sake of our children. We truly appreciate your support and respect during this time.”
It seems the announcement took Aubrey by surprise, as she commented under the post that the whole thing was “news to me.”
Mark also posted the statement to Facebook, under which Aubrey wrote that there was “never a conversation or discussion” about the decision.
On Instagram she responded to a comment that claimed Mark “decided to abandon” his family for a “party lifestyle.”
She replied to the comment: “idk who you are but thank you for this.”
The Love Is Blind alumni then shared a statement with PEOPLE, with Mark opening up more about their decision to split.
He shared: “While I chose to share a small part of it publicly, I want to be clear: my goal was never to create drama or disrespect anyone.”
“Aubrey and I, like many couples, faced our share of challenges. Ultimately, we decided to separate in hopes of creating a healthier, more peaceful environment for our kids.
“Right now, my focus is on being a present, loving father and doing what’s best for our boys.”
He explained that there is “a lot being said online that simply isn’t true,” and that he “won’t be engaging in back-and-forths.”
He added: “But I do hope people can remember there are two sides to every story, and more importantly, two children at the center of this.
“I’m doing my best to handle it with grace, and I hope others allow space for healing too.”
