Zach Bryan and Brianna LaPaglia Split: What Went Wrong?

Zach Bryan and his girlfriend, Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia, have ended their relationship after a year of dating. The 28-year-old country singer announced the breakup on his Instagram Story Tuesday, expressing his ongoing respect and love for the 25-year-old Barstool Sports personality.

Bryan mentioned that LaPaglia has provided him with unconditional love for a long time, and he will always be grateful for that. He shared that he has faced significant personal challenges over the past year but did not elaborate on the specifics.

A source indicated that their relationship had always been tumultuous, despite their affection for one another. Bryan revealed that it was best for both of them to part ways, acknowledging his own imperfections. He requested that fans respect LaPaglia’s privacy and expressed regret for any hurt he may have caused.

In response, LaPaglia admitted on her Instagram Story that she felt blindsided by Bryan’s announcement and decided to take a break from social media to focus on her healing.

Speculation about the breakup began when screenshots of Bryan’s profile on a celebrity dating app circulated online. LaPaglia further fueled the rumors by posting a cryptic poem that hinted at moving on from difficult situations.

Bryan briefly deactivated his Instagram account before returning to share the news about their separation. The couple, who began dating in July 2023, had adopted a dog together and moved into Bryan’s waterfront home earlier this year. They made their red carpet debut at the 2024 Grammys, where Bryan won an award for his duet with Kacey Musgraves.

Their relationship faced scrutiny when accusations of Bryan’s infidelity surfaced shortly after their coupledom began, but LaPaglia clarified that the alleged incident occurred before they were together. Bryan has a prior marriage to Rose Madden, and LaPaglia previously dated college football player Nik Pelligrino.
