After reports surfaced this summer claiming that Kyle and Mauricio were divorcing after 27 years of marriage, the longtime couple addressed the split speculation.
“Any claims regarding us divorcing are untrue,” the two shared in a joint Instagram statement July 3. “However, yes, we have had a rough year, the most challenging one of our marriage. But we both love and respect each other tremendously. There has been no wrongdoing on anyone’s part.”
Since their estrangement, Kyle and Morgan have formed a close bond, though they’ve continuously denied there’s anything romantic about their relationship. In fact, in August, the pals poked fun at rumors they are dating by costarring as love interests in Morgan’s “Fall in Love With Me” music video.
“I’ve done several music videos and every time there’s someone in it they always assume we’re dating or something’s going on,” Morgan explained at the time. “If you go on the Internet, you’ll see people are obsessed with us being friends.”
While Morgan noted, “We thought it would kind of be a good idea to kind of poke fun at that and troll the trolls a little bit,” Kyle added, “Well, if they’re gonna talk, you might as well give them something to talk about.”
