Today, Rachel went to Instagram to confirm their divorce is final. She shared a photo of herself standing in front of huge blue wings. She captioned the photo saying, “And just like that… I’m officially divorced! I will never regret my very public marriage. Lessons were learned and strength was gained.”

Rachel continued saying that if one comes out a better person then how could one regret their decisions. She went on to say that while going through the Married at First Sight process she was asked what divorce meant to her. Rachel said she used to believe it meant failure. However, her view on that has changed. She doesn’t believe she failed. Rachel said, ” I gave it my all but in the end I had to choose myself and that’s ok.”

So far, Jose hasn’t commented on their official divorce.

No plans to date just yet

Rachel recently revealed when she thinks she will get back out in the dating world. She made a funny video about it where she indicated she really didn’t know but believed it probably wouldn’t be anytime soon. She captioned the post, “The way 2021 is ending… dating sounds like more of a 2023 kind of activity.”

Rachel also revealed that her friendship with Brett, Johnny, and Myrla is some of the best things to come out of 2021. So, while her marriage didn’t work out, she gained lifelong friendships.
