On Thursday, theImagine Dragonslead vocalist shared a heartwarmingTikTok video, where he detailed a text message he got from his wife,Aja Volkman, that helped the pair to reconcile.
“She said she didn’t need to own me to love me,” he wrote, adding, “She loved me without expectations.”

“Then this guy came around,” Reynolds adds, as his son Valentine also appears in the shot. The pair are also parents to twin daughters, Gia James and Coco Rae, and daughter Arrow Eve.

In June 2019, the rockeropened up to PEOPLEabout how the pair had been working on their relationship — including through therapy — to get to a healthier place.
“We’ve been going through marriage counseling and putting ina lot of work to keep our family strong,” he said at the time. “Fortunately for us, we worked through it. If that hadn’t have been the case for us, there’s many people before us who paved that route and still raised great kids together or go on to be friends, or whatever it is. Relationships are complex.”
The Grammy winner went on to note that “no relationship is perfect,” explaining, “Sometimes it doesn’t work out and that’s okay; sometimes people separate for a little bit and theyend up deciding to get back togetherand that’s okay.”
