Love is Blind season 7 couple Ashley Adionser and Tyler Francis recently announced their divorce after more than a year of marriage.

The announcement came as a surprise as it took place only a few months after the recent season aired where fans witnessed their romance blossom as well as Tyler's controversial revelation about his past.

In the statement where Ashley announced her divorce from Tyler, there was no specific reason stated why they decided to split.

"After much reflection, I want to share that Tyler and I have been separated for several weeks and have now made the difficult decision to end our marriage," Ashley said.

"While I had hoped for mutual understanding and transparency in our relationship, it has become clear that our paths are no longer aligned, making it impossible for me to continue in this marriage."

Ashley added, "This was not a decision I made lightly, but one I know is necessary for my own growth and peace. While this chapter is ending, I will always hold respect for the time and love we shared. I kindly ask for privacy during this deeply personal time as I focus on healing and building a new future. Thank you for your understanding and support."

Fans have speculated that Tyler's sperm donor controversy may have something to do with their decision to split, but nevertheless, it was evident that their marriage has been on the rocks for some time now.

Tyler's Sperm Donor Controversy

During Season 7 of Love is Blind, Tyler admitted to Ashley that he was a sperm donor to a couple who was trying to start their own family. He claimed that it resulted in having three kids.

Ashley was shocked by their revelation, especially since Tyler did not confess during the earlier part of their relationship. Despite the rocky situation, they decided to proceed with their marriage.

When the season was airing, Ashley addressed her thoughts on Tyler's paternity reveal and defended her partner from the criticisms as she expressed her understanding and support over Tyler's past at that time.

"Did you hear the part where I say, 'I'm not [mad] at him trying to help a couple start a family...in fact I find it to be admirable!' I would NEVER EVER demean anything about a woman's fertility," Ashley replied to a fan comment.

She responded to another comment, "Do you know him personally to spread such slander about my cast mate? Regardless of the choice I make. I'll do whatever is best for me the same way I assume you live your life."

During the reunion special, the couple reaffirmed at that time they remained married despite the controversy.
