Country artist Jay Allen revealed that he and fellow country singer/songwriter Kylie Morgan have been separated for six months and are now getting divorced.
Allen, who rose to fame during Season 22 of NBC’s The Voice, took to social media to clear the air about his relationship status with Morgan early Tuesday morning (May 27).
“It’s with peace in my heart that I feel it’s time to share this…Kylie and I separated 6 months ago and made the decision to get divorced,” he wrote.
The Cedar Falls, IA native shared that he’s been focusing on personal growth and self-improvement, and offered kind words for Kylie, writing, “I’ve been on a journey of sobriety, healing, growing, leaning into God, and I’ve moved on. I will always care for Kylie and wish her the best.”
In recent months, the couple had been noticeably absent from each other’s social media, sparking speculation about the status of their relationship.
Kylie Morgan has yet to comment on the divorce.
Allen and Kylie Morgan first connected during a songwriting session years ago and immediately hit it off. In 2021, on their sixth anniversary, Allen took the next step and proposed during their set on the Whiskey Jam stage, a spot they had both visited together many times before.
“It was such a full-circle moment,” Morgan told People at the time. “When I first moved to Nashville at 19 years old, I would be at Whiskey Jam every single Monday because it was just always the place to go and network. It was just really cool to go back to where it all began and really close the deal.”
Jay Allen and Kylie Morgan said “I do” on Sunday, November 27, 2022. They originally had to postpone their wedding due to the impacts of Hurricane Ian. Their wedding took place in Fort Myers, Florida at La Casa Toscana where they tied the knot in front of 85 close family and friends.
