- Today host Dylan Dreyer, 44, has been candid about getting a divorce, first telling her followers in a social media post in July that she and her husband of more than a decade, Brian Fichera, had been separated for “a few months.”
- A few months later, during an episode of Today with Jenna & Friends in November, Dreyer opened up about her relationship ending, telling host Jenna Bush Hager that while everyone has their own reasons for getting a divorce, there was “something freeing” about her split, for both her and Fichera.
- “Whatever broke in a marriage, you could either fix it if you can, and ideally you would, and you try, and you try to fix things. Or you accept that it’s broken and you take this new step forward,” Dreyer said. “So there was something we couldn’t fix.”
- She went on, “We are no longer husband and wife, and all those things that were broken, I don’t hold them against you because we’ve accepted they’re broken. That’s why we’re separated. So now let’s move forward as friends.”
- “And I’m not mad at those other things that I was getting mad at before because, just like a friend, you give them a little more grace when you’re not married,” Dreyer added. “And I can be a better friend than a wife. And now the boys are surrounded by love.”
