Read our privacy policy The Bachelorette alum Rachel Lindsay learned “via text message” that her ex Bryan Abasolo had filed for divorce, court documents have revealed. The 39-year-old TV personality alleged in the filing that she and Abasolo, 44, “had a conversation in kitchen during which he failed to mention that he had filed for divorce.” Approximately 30 minutes after he left the house, according to Lindsay, he sent a text message informing her that he had filed for divorce that same day. Although Lindsay – who met and got engaged to Abasolo during her season of The Bachelorette in 2017 – knew that she and the chiropractor “were separating and would be headed toward divorce,” she claimed she was “shocked” to be informed over text that he’d officially filed. While Lindsay didn’t make her own social media statement about the split, she later opened up about the divorce on her podcast, Higher Learning with Van Lathan and Rachel Lindsay, describing the divorce as a “difficult time.” “I didn’t think I’d get emotional,” she said during the January 5 episode.
