July 13 (UPI) — Married at First Sight couple Ryan Oubre and Clara Berghaus are headed for divorce.
The Season 12 stars announced their split in a joint statement Monday on Instagram Stories.
“After taking some time away from cameras, we have reached that point in our marriage where we know it’s better to go our separate ways. It’s not an easy decision to make it, nor we do we take these next steps lightly,” the pair said.
“Grateful to all who stood by us, and continue to stand by us as we make this very difficult decision,” they added. “It goes without saying, we remain friends and hope for nothing but the best for each other.”
