Part of the lengthy post read:

"At this moment, it is necessary for me to share a personal truth and publicly dissociate myself from someone I can no longer trust. I find myself in a season of heartbreak because of a love suddenly and devastatingly extinguished by deception. I am tempted to run into shadows and hide, only to return to the light when I have gained my strength enough for me to say, 'whatever, my life is better this way'."
