Country music star Jon Pardi has announced that he and his wife, Summer Pardi, are ending their marriage after five years together. The 41-year-old singer and his 37-year-old wife, who share two young daughters, Presley Fawn and Sienna Grace, confirmed the news through a joint statement shared on social media.
"After much thought, we have made the difficult decision to end our marriage," the statement read. "Our daughters will always remain our highest priority and we are committed to moving forward with love and respect as co-parents. Thank you so much for your understanding, support and respect as we navigate these changes as a family."
According to court documents, Summer Pardi filed for divorce in Tennessee on May 12, citing irreconcilable differences and listing May 11 as the date of separation. She has requested spousal support and primary residential custody of their two children.
Following the announcement, the "Heartbreak Medication" singer shared an update on his Instagram Stories, informing fans that he would be taking a hiatus from social media to focus on his personal life and family. He noted that his team would manage his accounts in the interim and confirmed that he intends to continue with his scheduled tour dates for his ongoing Honkytonk Hollywood tour.
Reports indicate that the couple had been facing significant challenges for some time. Sources close to the pair suggested that they had struggled since last year, even briefly separating and unfollowing one another on social media before the holidays. Despite attempts to reconcile for the sake of their children, the couple ultimately decided that divorce was the necessary path forward.
The couple first met in 2017 on a blind date and married in 2020 at Saddle Woods Farm in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. At the time of their wedding, the singer spoke fondly of their relationship, describing it as "love at first sight" and praising his wife's supportive nature and caring heart.
