In a video published to her YouTube channel, an emotional Mercedes shared the following about her divorce:

“I’m just ready to be free, I’m ready to be free of not being afraid. For so long I’ve kept this secret… I just didn’t want the outside world to judge or say anything. My ex-husband now, we have such a great relationship and he’s such an amazing, incredible guy that I’m so thankful for. He’s another person that changed and saved my life.”

“We’ve moved on, we’ve been separated for a long time. We got separated at the end of December of 2020, and he finally moved out in January of 2021.”
