Zach Bryan and Brianna Chickenfry have officially called it quits.
Bryan, 28, announced on his Instagram Stories they had split after more than one year together with a lengthy statement.
Just over 30 minutes after his statement, Brianna – whose real name is Brianna LaPaglia – appeared to allude to the break-up with her own message stating she was going to be taking a social media break after feeling ‘really blindsided.’
The announcement came one day after fans speculated the duo had gone their separate ways after a Reddit user claimed to have seen Bryan on the celebrity dating app Raya with photos of his alleged profile, in addition to a mysterious message shared by Chickenfry.
The country singer, who began dating Brianna in July 2023, posted to his account on Tuesday: ‘Addressing something: Brianna and me have broken up with eachother (sic) and I respect and love her with every ounce of my heart. She has loved me unconditionally for a very long time and for that I’ll always thank her.’

‘I’ve had an incredibly hard year personally and struggled through some pretty severe things. I thought it would be beneficial for both of us to go out different ways. I am not perfect and never will be.
‘Please respect Brianna’s privacy and space in this and if you have it in your heart, mine too.’
‘With everything I am and to anyone I let down, I am sorry. I try my best in everything. I failed people that love me and mostly myself.’
Around 30 minutes after Bryan posted his message, the Barstool Sports star posted her statement.
While she did not say anything about the split, she appeared to be alluding to her break-up with Zach as she said she was feeling ‘really blindsided’ at the moment.
‘Hey guys I’m feeling really blindsided right now. Gonna hop off social media for a while and attempt to heal privately, when I’m ready I’ll be back and ready to talk.
‘I love you guys so much thank you for all of your kind words. Remember you are so loved and everything’s always gonna be OK.’
Confirmation of the split came amid fan speculation the couple had gone their separate ways.

‘And eventually you’ll find that life goes on, even if you don’t want it to,’ the message read. ‘The days will pass and the world will move while you ask it to stop.
‘You’ll believe life is cruel for continuing on while your feet are stuck.
‘You’ll fine people and moments to blame for your concrete feet.

‘Then there will come a morning when you wake and realize things go on, life isn’t cruel your feet are.
‘The world keeps on spinning in hopes of showing you that you can as well.’
She captioned the post with a hand-hearts emoji.
