Messy Split Between Country Singer Zac Brown And His Ex-Wife Takes New Twist
HuffPost
The “Chicken Fried” singer and Kelly Yazdi were married from August 2023 to December 2023 — then he sued her in May 2024.
The messy split between country singer Zac Brown and his ex-wife Kelly Yazdi took a new twist on Tuesday when she posted more than a dozen photos on Instagram disparaging his new relationship as a “repeat” of theirs and calling on the singer to drop a lawsuit he filed against her.
The legal troubles started in May 2024 when Brown accused Yazdi of defaming him with false accusations and violating a confidentiality agreement she signed when she posted a poem on Instagram that, according to the lawsuit, many people would believe was about Brown. The poem is about a “rebirth,” in which Yazdi wrote about a love that is “conditional” and “disguised,” but really about “control.”
“Projections. Gaslighting. Threatening. Stonewalling. Those are the ingredients of narcissistic abuse,” Yazdi wrote.
In legal filings, Yazdi, who was married to Brown from August 2023 to December 2023, said that a few months after she married Brown, he began complaining about her posting modeling photos on Instagram and shortly after that, he announced on a Zoom meeting that he wanted a divorce. Brown also said in the documents that the poem she posted on Instagram is about “love, life and relationships” and argued it never mentioned Brown or any confidential information.
And Brown alleged that Yazdi, who at one point handled social media for his company, also forwarded “highly sensitive documents” concerning Brown and his business to her personal email in an attempt to “use them as leverage against” him.
