Love Is Blind star Mark Cuevas has split from his wife of three years, Aubrey Rainey. And y’all, this breakup seems messy AF!!
On Saturday, the reality star made the shock announcement on his Instagram, writing:
“After a lot of thought and conversations, Aubrey and I decided to part ways a few weeks ago. This wasn’t an easy decision, but we both believe it’s the best path forward for our individual growth and for our family.”
Sad news, especially since they have kids…

The couple welcomed their sons Ace and Axton in 2021 and 2022, respectively, before getting married later in 2022.
The 31-year-old said moving forward the children would be their “top priority”:
“Our top priority will always be our boys. We’re committed to coparenting with love, respect and teamwork so that they feel supported and secure every step of the way. As we begin this new chapter, we kindly ask for your understanding and privacy, especially for the sake of our children. We truly appreciate your support and respect during this time. With gratitude, Mark & Aubrey.”
While Aubrey was included in the sign-off, this was NOT a joint statement. It seems, in fact, she had NO involvement in the post! Blindsided, she commented:
“This is new to me lol”
What???
Hours later, she shared a photo of her and her boys’ hands with hearts drawn on them, lamenting her “world is falling apart.” Oof!
Oh, and it gets messier. Under Mark’s post about the split on Facebook, Aubrey was also spotted accusing the Netflix personality of cheating on her! She dished:
“go ahead and head to instagram for the details because this was never a conversation or discussion. He got caught out with women and had to cover his tracks to maintain his ‘public image.’ i had no part in this statement and its news to me, as it is to everyone else.”
OMG!
It’s the only comment on the post, so it’s hard to miss. So far, she hasn’t elaborated on the cheating allegations. But once a cheater, always a cheater, right?
IYDK, after getting dumped at the altar on LIB by Jessica Batten, Mark started dating his co-star Lauren “LC” Chamblin, but the short-lived romance ended after she learned he was allegedly cheating on her via a Reddit thread that exposed him! That other woman was Aubrey! Mark claimed he and LC were never exclusive. But damn. Now it kinda sounds like history is repeating itself!
In a statement to People about the breakup, Mark said it has been “a deeply personal and difficult transition,” sharing:
“While I chose to share a small part of it publicly, I want to be clear: my goal was never to create drama or disrespect anyone.”
He continued:
“Aubrey and I, like many couples, faced our share of challenges. Ultimately, we decided to separate in hopes of creating a healthier, more peaceful environment for our kids. Right now, my focus is on being a present, loving father and doing what’s best for our boys.”
That statement was made the same day as his IG announcement, btw. He didn’t waste any time running to media outlets to get his version out — before she even knew what hit her.
He even tried to shut down the cheating rumors, saying there is “a lot being said online that simply isn’t true” and that he “won’t be engaging in back-and-forths,” concluding:
“But I do hope people can remember there are two sides to every story, and more importantly, two children at the center of this. I’m doing my best to handle it with grace, and I hope others allow space for healing too.”
Whoa! Sounds like there may be a lot more to this story. It’s too bad to see things come to such a messy end…
Reactions, Perezcious readers??
