In an Instagram Stories statement, the “Pink Skies” artist noted he was “addressing something,” referring to the breakup rumors that had already begun swirling about him and Brianna.

“Brianna and me have broken up with [each other] and I respect and love her with every ounce of my heart,” Zach wrote. “She has loved me unconditionally for a very long time and for that, I’ll always thank her. I have had an incredibly hard year personally and struggled through some pretty severe things.”

Zach then added, “I thought it would be beneficial for both of us to go our different ways. I am not perfect and never will be. Please respect Brianna’s privacy and space in this and if you have it in your heart, mine too.”

Toward the end of his post, the singer-songwriter concluded, “With everything I am and to anyone I let down, I am sorry. I try my best in everything. I failed people that love me and mostly myself.”

“I’ve been crying for, like, five days straight,” she said after confessing she was “completely shocked” by Zach’s public statement. “He didn’t text me, he didn’t call me. … I’m at the point where it’s like, how can you give someone everything and like, love them so unconditionally, like through stuff that you shouldn’t, because you just love ’em and you want them?”
