Morgan Evans ‘Very Sad’ Over Kelsea Ballerini Divorce: ‘I Wish It Were Otherwise’
The couple is calling it quits after nearly five years of marriage.
Morgan Evans is mourning the end of his marriage to Kelsea Ballerini. The 37-year-old “Kiss Somebody” singer took to his Instagram Stories to offer a heartfelt update on the news of their divorce.
“I am very sad to confirm that after almost 5 years of marriage, Kelsea and I are parting ways,” Evans wrote in a statement. “I wish it were otherwise but sadly it is not.”
On Monday, Ballerini addressed the news on her own Instagram, writing: “Friends, I’ve always tried my best to share my life with you in a real and vulnerable way, while also protecting layers of my personal life as they unfold. This is now public record so I wanted you to hear from me directly that I am going through a divorce. This deeply difficult decision is the result of a journey of love, growth, and effort that ultimately has come to an end.”
She continued, “It’s hard to find the words here…but I feel extremely grateful for the years of marriage to Morgan and hopeful for the next seasons.”
