Trista Sutter Responds to Divorce Rumors After Being Away From Family

As a seasoned observer of love and relationships, particularly within the realm of reality television, I must say that the journey of these Bachelor Nation alumni is nothing short of intriguing! From heartbreaks to engagements, marriages, and everything in between, they’ve certainly given us a rollercoaster ride of emotions.


Trista Sutter is setting the record straight about her and Ryan Sutter‘s marriage.

Initially featured on ‘The Bachelorette’, the first star dismissed divorce rumors and additional gossip regarding her personal life and health, which emerged six months back following her husband’s mysterious social media posts hinting at missing his partner of 20 years.

What caused Trista to be absent from her family for a while? It turns out that she had to leave to shoot the third season of the Fox reality show, “Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test.” This was confirmed when the cast list was announced on November 15th.

Recently, on Instagram Stories, the reality star clarified a misunderstanding from a few months ago. People speculated that I might have had a breakdown, passed away, or was divorcing Ryan due to an ambiguous post he made. However, it turns out that my absence and the mysterious post were simply because I was filming Special Forces instead.

Ashley Iaconetti acknowledged that she praised the individual who predicted Trista’s participation in a television series before others did, on her and Ben Higgins’ Almost Famous podcast in May. Following Ryan’s posts about longing for his wife, Trista was speculated to be filming Special Forces. Ashley had hinted that Trista would be suitable for the show, mentioning this to her.

At Gerry Turner’s wedding to Theresa Nist in January, Trista and Ashley talked about the Fox series.)

In a recent Instagram post, Trista shared, “Have you been considered for Special Forces so far? Here’s an interesting thought: I believe you could be the next Bachelor Nation member tapped for this opportunity, although I didn’t have any inkling about it at that time. Surprisingly, I wasn’t even approached about joining the show until much later.

You know, I couldn’t believe it when Ashley suggested I join the show, thinking there was no chance they’d want me! But boy, was she spot-on. Ashley, you’re a genius! Today, I’m putting my money on whatever advice Ashley gives.

In the season finale of “The Bachelorette” (season 21), it seemed like “The Bachelor” alum Jenn Tran found her perfect ending with her final choice, Devin Strader. However, during “After the Final Rose” in September, Jenn, who is 26 years old, disclosed that Devin, aged 28, abruptly distanced himself after the cameras stopped rolling.

 

During a September 3 broadcast, Jenn shared with host Jesse Palmer that he had been making grand declarations of affection, only for them to vanish abruptly the following day. He even claimed to have never been in love. Jenn added that all the pledges and affection he had made to her were no longer evident.

 

The events unfolded further as Devin posted a 13-minute video on Instagram, detailing his perspective and expressing accountability for certain aspects, while also revealing reasons behind his decision to end the relationship during a 15-minute conversation over the phone.

 

Instead of claiming that Jenn ended their relationship over the phone in August, he stated that she asked him why things were wrong, as he struggled to tell her in person that he wanted to end the relationship.

 

He confided that he was unsure of any other course of action, adding that he had been planning to share this with her face-to-face. In essence, she made it necessary for him to act sooner rather than later.

 

After that incident, Jenn gracefully made her way towards “Dancing With the Stars” and perhaps into the affection of her dance partner, Sasha Farber. They’ve been fueling dating speculations ever since their elimination on October 29th.
