Chris and Krystal are moving on

US Weekly broke the news that Chris received divorce papers from Krystal. He had hoped for a reconciliation, but it looks like that won’t be happening. Chris said, “It’s becoming more real, the separation, which you know, is, you know, obviously turning into a divorce. Just got the paperwork, not too long ago.”

He continued, “It’s a crazy process, even though I’m still legally married, you know, it’s, it’s something that is a memory now. But here’s the interesting thing. I look at this as like a moment of gratitude and I know that’s probably crazy for anyone to hear this, but you know, you always got to come from a place of love and compassion. There are just things in life that you can’t control.”

The couple had only been married less than eight months when they announced their split. They had met on  BIP  in 2018 and were married on the beaches of Mexico last summer. While he admitted to missing her earlier this year, Chris says Krystal has moved on.

Chris is also trying to move on. He says he has no regrets from their relationship. He chooses to focus on himself for the time being. In fact, he just wrote a book, Change Your Mindset, Change Your Energy, Change Your Life. He said, “And like I said, now it’s time to focus on me. I think I had so much energy putting into the relationship that I abandoned myself. And so now, I’m making sure that I’m a priority and I’m going to be focusing on what’s going to help me become better moving forward.”

After news broke of their divorce, Krystal went to Instagram to share her thoughts. She shared a picture of her near the water with her two dogs.

With respect and support for one another, Chris and I have decided to move forward with filing for divorce.”

She went on to talk about her and Chris being grateful for their journey. Krystal said they have both learned a lot from each other. She wrapped up her post saying, “I believe that there can be beauty inside of pain when we have the courage to look within with compassion and a willingness to grow. We all deserve to live a beautiful life we love… and sometimes we realize it’s time to let go and LET GOD. 🙏”

Best wishes to Chris and Krystal moving forward.
