The bloom is off the final rose for Bachelorette star Rachel Lindsay and husband Bryan Abasolo, who found love on the reality dating show. Court records show that Abasolo filed to end their marriage on Tuesday.

"After four years of marriage, Rachel and I have made the difficult decision to part ways and start anew," Abasolo said in a statement posted to his Instagram account. "Sometimes loving yourself and your partner means you must let go." After competing on season 21 of The Bachelor, Lindsay gained fame as the first Black lead on any iteration of The Bachelor franchise when she was picked as The Bachelorette in 2017. She chose Abasolo as her winning suitor and they married in August 2019. The Bachelorette Star Rachel Lindsay’s Husband, Bryan Abasolo, Announces Their Split After 4 Years of Marriage (View Post).
Lindsay, an attorney and author, recently left her correspondent position at entertainment news show Extra. Abasolo is a chiropractor who has adopted the moniker 'Dr Abs'. In his statement, he asked for respect for their family and friends as they navigate their next steps. Lindsay has yet to comment on the matter directly on her social media, and her publicists did not immediately return a request for comment. In an Instagram post from New Year's Eve, she called 2023 "one of the hardest years of my life". The pair have no children together. Abasolo is seeking spousal support from Lindsay and wants her to pay his attorneys' fees. The filing does not indicate the couple has a prenuptial agreement on how their assets should be divided.
