“We tried to record this week but I am having a very hard time figuring out how I want to handle this publicly due to all the backlash,” she explained last week, referring to the “BFFs” podcast.

Bryan told his Instagram followers about the breakup by writing a lengthy statement on his Instagram Story about how he was “not perfect.”
“With everything I am and to anyone I let down, I am sorry. I try my best in everything. I failed people that love me and mostly myself,” he wrote in part.
