Blake Moynes breaks silence, reveals how he’s dealing with heartbreak

While neither Blake or Katie revealed who initiated the split, fans infer from Thurston’s video that it was her. Blake’s Instagram post addressing the split seems to back up that assumption.

The post includes four snapshots of how he is dealing with the heartbreak – his dogs. The photos show Blake at a beach walking and playing with his dogs. He tagged the location as Hamilton Beach, meaning he’s currently in his hometown in Canada.

In the caption, he admits that “times are really tough.” But he shouts out those that are always there for him, namely his “human/furr fam.”

However, he also gives credit to his “new found [sic] social family,”  meaning his social media followers.

He thanks them for “all the love, support, encouragement and even patience over the past week.” “Super grateful…fur real,” he adds.
