"Yep, it has been challenging and hell yeah it's taken a LOT of work the past 22 months (but who's counting 😂) to make our marriage what it has become, & we will never stop working on ourselves, for this marriage and for our kids!" she shared. "I know there are many that don't or would never do what I chose to do, and that's ok, it's not for everyone!! I look forward to sharing our story, how I came to that conclusion and I think it's going to help a lot of people," she continued, adding that she is proud of her husband "for the responsibility he's taken." She added, "Mostly I'm grateful for a man who humbled himself & didn't try to defend himself, he has kept quiet publically [sic] and he has remained focused on the one thing that matters most-our family!"

The mother of three explained that she took a break from social media because it was "not good for [her] soul," and that she'd had to block and delete many users and comments from her posts.
