Dave Abrams filed for divorce in 2018 after less than three years of marriage, citing "irreconcilable differences." Garth said the short timeline of their romance posed a challenge (they met on a blind date in 2014 and married less than a year later).

"We rushed it too much, and we had individual things we needed to work out," Garth told People. "Maybe it was a mistake [to move so fast], and we’ve all had to learn and grow from that. ...When everything wasn’t shiny and pretty and fun like it had been initially when things got challenging, [Dave] didn’t know how to handle it as much."

The differences wound up being reconcilable after all. The pair called off the split in February 2019.

Jennie Garth and Peter Facinelli divorced in 2013. Neither has explicitly stated the reason(s) for their divorce, but in a 2022 interview, Facinelli said, “I think in relationships, in the beginning they are wonderful. You have this honeymoon period and it’s fantastic. Slowly, over time, somebody might say something that is kind of hurtful. The other person might permit it and then they get into a habit."

“...All of a sudden it gets habitual and it grows, and then you get resentful," he added. "When you try to change those habits….I was actually telling a friend about this. A relationship is like a tree. In the beginning, if it starts to bend you can correct it, but if you allow it to continue on that path there is nothing you can do to bend it back, because it has already grown in that way and solidified.”
