Jaclyn Schwartzberg and Ryan Buckley: It's Over!

Despite the occasional bit of good news from Jamie Otis and Doug Hehner, most of the news about Married at First Sight couples is, well, bad. It goes with the territory.

Jaclyn Schwartzberg and Ryan Buckley’s news is no exception — these two are splitting after less than one year of marriage.

What’s more is that they actually broke up a while ago.

Did you know that Jaclyn and Ryan aren’t even the first Married at First Sight couple to have those names, right down to the spelling?

Well, like Jaclyn Methuen and Ryan Ranellone before them, Us Weekly reports that Jaclyn Schwartzberg and Ryan Buckley have decided to call it quits.

As we mentioned, this apparently isn’t too recent, either.

A source tells Us that this conscious uncoupling actually happened "a while ago."

The two apparently were waiting for the news to break before confirming it.

But Jaclyn has come out and acknowledged the breakup on Instagram.

Jaclyn writes: "We have split," confirming the news.

On top of making official, she wants to assure fans of the series that this is for the best.

She writes: "and trust me we are both much happier and healthier this way."

That is usually the case for divorces. You don’t end a marriage just for fun.

And it’s also no surprise for these two specifically, given that, back in January, viewers saw that even their honeymoon seemed tense and full of conflict.

"Thank you so much for all the love and support," Jaclyn says.

Jaclyn assures her fans and followers: "We ALL deserve a good love story."

Sure! If you want one. Plenty of people would prefer to experience a good success story.

Jaclyn affirms that people deserve love "whether you find it in high school, tinder, out dancing, on vacation, or a show."

"Love is love," Jaclyn says. "And it certainly doesn’t judge."

That is very sweet of her to say. Though also in her self-interest, since she got married on a reality show.

Jaclyn referred to the many people whom she met during her journey on Married at First Sight.

"This was a fabulous bunch," Jaclyn writes.

She enjoyed meeting them all "and I’m always grateful for learning experiences."

it’s good that she’s walking out of this situation with a positive attitude.

Jaclyn writes that she values learning opportunities, "especially when they involve self growth."

Marriage to a total stranger would have to qualify, right?

Ryan has not yet responded to the breaking news on Instagram, as of Thursday afternoon, but on the show itself, he more than hinted that he would not be emotionally devastated by a divorce.

And though his his an avid user of Instagram, one has to scroll through a couple of months to find any photos of Jaclyn.

Ryan’s parents, we should note, have been married for about 40 years. So that’s a bit of contrast.

It sounds like this breakup was reasonably amicable, but we’re sure that there are still a lot of complicated feelings. Even though they were total strangers before their wedding.
