The website also said that in the months before the separation, Braun ad secretly checked into an “intense psycho-spiritual retreat.”

In a podcast in June, Braun had said, “My wife and I began to hear all kinds of rumors, like ‘[Scooter] has gone crazy.’ But it wasn’t that. It was just feeling like I wasn’t present in my life, and [feeling] like the people around me who loved me, I felt their hurt.”

“Because, one, we’re all coming in with our own trauma, and weirdly our trauma was matching up, and … I couldn’t fix it. And I’m a fixer. Since I was a kid, I was the guy who was going to make it OK for everybody. And I just couldn’t fix things in this moment in time,” he had said on Jay Shetty’s On Purpose podcast.

On July 6, Braun shared a photo on Instagram to mark their wedding anniversary. 

“If just for the kids you have given me everything. But thanks to you I have grown, I have been pushed to be the best version of myself and to continue growing and learning. That all happened because you came in to my life. 7 years. The adventure is just beginning. Thank you Yae. I love you. Happy anniversary,” he had written on Instagram, along with a photo of himself and his wife in their wedding attire.  

 The couple has three children — Jagger, 6, Levi, 4, and Hart, 2.
