Ryan Sutter debunks split rumours with after sparking concern with cryptic post

Ryan Sutter recently broke silence on his relationship with wife Trista Sutter following cryptic posts about her absence.

Sutter took to his Instagram on Saturday, May 18, responding to a wave of worrisome questions.

He posted a black and white selfie alongside a caption that read: “I write my feelings without regard for how they will be interpreted and with absolutely no intent to deceive or mislead anyone – that is the farthest thing from my mind. I choose to share my thoughts on occasion because it helps me process them and, I hope, may help others navigate their own lives.”

Sutter then offered an inside scoop on his relationship with Trista despite sparking divorce rumours.

Continuing on the subject, he added: “Trista is fine. We are fine. We’re great. Trista is at a place in life where she is searching a bit. An opportunity presented itself that may help her on that quest. With her family’s support, she has taken it. Part of that process means that she is temporarily inaccessible to us. I miss her. We miss her.”

This came after Ryan sparked concern with his post on May 11 about "hoping absence makes the heart grow fonder."

He captioned the post: "I know you wish you were here for Mother’s Day. We wish you were too. But sometimes being a mom means letting go of their hands, granting independence and stimulating their courageous spirit.”

For the unversed, the two tied the knot shortly after meeting on the first season of The Bachelorette in 2003. They share son Maxwell and daughter Blakesley.
