They got married in 2018.
Their marriage lasted for four years as Justin Dean announced he was quitting the marriage in March 2022.
In his Instagram handle, he said:
“I’m heartbroken!
Anyone that knows me or watches me online knows that I’m a dedicated family man to both my children and myself. This is honestly the hardest decision of my life, but necessary.
I’m walking away from this marriage for my mental health and to be the best version of myself. I must set a healthy example for my children.
This has nothing to do with postpartum depression.
I’ve been betrayed once again and she is unbothered, which pretty summarizes our marriage.
My apology to all the young men and women that believed we had a “perfect marriage”.
Marriage is based on mutual love, respect, humility, accountability, empathy, apologies and most of all effective communication to understand the other person’s perspectives.
Likes and views shouldn’t be the highlight of your relationship.
Men:Your mental health matters!
In order to be strong, you have to be happy”
Dean also said he will always be there for his children even though he has divorced his wife.
