Carrion’s engagement to Pallet comes less than a year afterhis divorce from wife Cortney Hendrix. The couple got married in March 2014 on season 1 of Lifetime’s reality show, on which relationship experts pair up strangers who agree to meet on their wedding day.
Ina statement to PEOPLEin March, Carrion, a firefighter and wrestler, said that while he and Hendrix, 32, had decided to end their “fairytale” five-year marriage, they “continue to love and support one another.”
“It is with a heart full of sadness that me and Cortney have decided to separate,” he said. “We fell deeply in love and had very much a fairytale story being married as complete strangers in the docuseries,Married at First Sight.”
“We both had such an incredibly magical journey together these past few years, making this that much harder to write and even harder to live,” he continued. “These last few months, we asked for privacy to reevaluate things. It has been a very difficult time for me, especially with all the rumors, as well as the public wanting updates about our marriage.”
FYI
The former couple quietly filed for divorce in February following a six-month separation.
Hendrix announced their split on Instagram at the time, admitting they fought to make things work.
“We asked for privacy this entire time bc we were trying to figure it all out. At one point we thought we were going to divorce in order to date and start all over the right way,” she wrote. “We have decided together to move on in different paths, but that doesn’t mean we don’t have love for each other. He will always have a special place in my heart and life. We do love you all and appreciate the support that you have shown us from the beginning.”
Before the split, Carrion hadopened up toE! Newsabout overcoming marital issues.
“I had to take a step back and re-evaluate what was most important in my life — my wife,” he said. “I started making our marriage my main priority and started to see a huge growth in our relationship.”
