Country music star Brett Kissel and his wife, Cecilia, are getting divorced.
They shared the news in a joint Instagram post, featuring a handwritten letter signed by each of them this week.
“It is with a clear mind and a loving heart that we have made the decision to end our marriage of almost 15 years,” the note read. “We have come to realize after a great deal of deep soul searching that we are no longer suited to be married to one another. This is a very big decision which we have not taken lightly.
“As we move forward in our next chapter in life, we look forward to continuing to co-parent our 4 amazing children,” the letter continued. “And we will definitely remain great friends. We look to our future with optimism, with love, and with great respect for one another.”
They also provided a message in the caption along with the letter.
“Thank you for your continued support and understanding as we navigate this new chapter,” that read. “We would like to share that we are all doing well and have quietly been separated now for a year and a half.
“Please don’t spend your time worrying about us and our children,” the statement continued. “However, we would greatly appreciate your continued kindness moving forward and ask that you respect the privacy of our family.”
Country Now reported that Brett and Cecilia were married in 2011 and have four children: daughters Mila, 9, and Aria, 8, and sons Leo, 6, and Atlas, 3.
