Country music star’s estranged wife says he asked for divorce 9 days after wedding party


Country music star Zac Brown’s estranged wife, Kelly Yazdi, is speaking up as the couple continues to battle things out amid an ugly divorce.

In an emotional TikTok video, Yazdi said that Brown surprisingly asked for a divorce just a short time after their wedding in November of 2023.

“We held our private wedding party in Nashville last November with our family and friends, and nine days after our wedding party, Zac unexpectedly told me over Zoom that he wanted a divorce,” she said.

Yazdi also explained why she has not spoken much about the situation.

“You haven’t heard from me in a while because I have been afraid to publish anything in fear that it could result in more legal things being brought against me to suppress my freedom of speech,” she said.

She said that the divorce “has been a very painful experience.”

“After he told me that he wanted a divorce, I refused to sign a non-disclosure agreement that would have broadly prohibited me from ever talking about my life or relationship with Zac for the rest of my life,” she added. “And after I refused to sign that lifetime NDA, that is when Zac filed for divorce back in January, and then a couple weeks later, I was fired from my position as executive vice president of his company.”

Yazdi claimed that is when Brown used their wedding party video “with alterations and without my consent for commercial gain,” and to attack her integrity. She said that Brown then sued her for a poem she wrote, and asked for an emergency restraining order against her claiming she was violating a confidentiality clause in her employment agreement with the company.

She also said that she has sued Brown for the video for “Beautiful Drug,” which she claims part of their wedding party video and was “edited to portray me in a false light.”

She lamented the “huge power disparity” between Brown’s stardom and her, being a regular person.

“But I will continue to stand up for myself,” she said. “To everyone listening, your First Amendment right to freedom of speech is so important, and it’s absolutely worth fighting for.”

She encouraged people to go to the court website and read the documents filed to learn more about the case.

Brown has yet to respond, but it looks like this breakup isn’t getting any better.
