Breakup Drama
In October 2024, Bryan announced his split from Brianna LaPaglia on Instagram Stories, stating he and LaPaglia were going separate ways.
Zach Bryan said:
> “She has loved me unconditionally for a very long time and for that I’ll always thank her. I thought it would be beneficial for both of us to go our different ways.”
LaPaglia countered in a YouTube video, saying she was blindsided by the post and had never been informed before.
Brianna LaPaglia said:
> “I had no idea that post was going up. He didn’t text me, he didn’t call me.”
Bryan later defended himself against criticism, telling followers he could handle hatred but urged people not to attack his friends.
Zach Bryan said:
> “No matter how bad of a person you think I am, go ahead and come for me. I can take all the hatred because I’m not a child. But do not come for my friends who do nothing but love and care for me.”
He added, “I love my life. I have worked REALLY hard for it. Whether you think I deserve it or not. Whether you think I suck or not. Stop being such sad fat fingered internet sleuths to my friends. We’re all humans.”
