Country musician Zac Brown and Kelly Yazdi have announced they are getting a divorce after just four months of marriage.
“We are in the process of divorce,” the couple confirmed in a joint statement to TMZ. “Our mutual respect for one another remains. We wish each other the best and will always appreciate our time together.”
They concluded, “As we navigate this personal matter, we simply request privacy during this time.”

A representative for Brown did not immediately respond to EW’s request for comment.
The “Chicken Fried” singer, 45, and model, 32, were quietly married in Georgia on Aug. 31, TMZ reported last month. The ceremony was held less than a year after multiple sources confirmed to PEOPLE that the pair had gotten engaged in December 2022.
However, TMZ noted that fans began to speculate on the status of Brown and Yazdi’s relationship after she deleted her Instagram account only to create a new account that did not feature Brown’s surname. The pair are also not currently following each other on the platform.
Prior to tying the knot with Yazdi, the Zac Brown Band singer was previously married to jewelry designer Shelly Brown. The pair — who share five children together — announced that they were separating in October 2018 after 12 years of marriage.
