The Announcement

On March 17, 2021, Kat and Mike posted a video on their joint TikTok account, @katandmikestickler, where they revealed that they were separating. In the video, they said that no one was really at fault for the split. It was just the case of things not working out between two people. They had an amicable breakup and were committed to co-parenting their daughter MK, whose full name is Mary Katherine, to the best of their abilities.

“We go forward with love and respect for each other 100%. We are also totally committed to co-parenting MK to the best of our abilities. We just ask you to respect our privacy,” Kat said in the video, to which Mike agreed, adding, “Kat is not at fault at all. There are a lot of things I need to work on in my life. So again, if you could, please respect our privacy.”1

The video received over 13 million views and thousands of comments from their fans, who expressed their sadness, confusion, and support for the couple. Some fans also speculated that there was more to the story than what they shared.

The NDA

A few months after the announcement, Kat launched her YouTube channel and posted a Q&A video on January 13, 2022. In the video, she addressed many personal questions, one of which was about her divorce and why she does not talk about it that much. At the start of the video, after making it seem like she would finally answer the question about why she and her ex-husband divorced, she revealed she could not talk about her divorce.

Kat said she had signed an NDA (non-disclosure agreement) with Mike for the benefit of their daughter. However, in the clip, she said she would tell everything that she considered to be important information.2

Mike also talked about the NDA on February 9 on his Instagram. In his post, he explained why his marriage with Kat did not work. “We got married young, we had a baby, we realized that we were not right for each other, the relationship became unhealthy,” Mike told his followers on what looked to be a clip from a live stream. Further, he said they had “decided it was best to part ways, simply put.”

Regarding the NDA, Mike said that he and Kat and their lawyers advised them to sign an NDA because of their social media presence. According to him, it was not any more dramatic than just a simple contract, and the relationship just did not work.

The Co-Parenting

After discussing the divorce and NDA, Kat moved on to answer a question from a fan regarding her co-parenting experience with her ex-husband. She talked about how the first night away from her daughter, she felt like someone had taken away her other half. Kat also had not gotten the hang of co-parenting yet.

“I’ve had my breakdown moments,” said Kat as she admitted to still struggling with it. Her struggle was intensified because she had moved on from her ex-husband, and she did not want to romanticize anything regarding the experience.

She also shined a light on how divorce did not always equate to freedom. She said that she still had to deal with her ex-husband because of their daughter and that sometimes they disagreed on things like parenting styles or schedules.

However, despite the challenges, Kat said that she and Mike were doing their best to co-parent MK in a healthy way. She said that they still communicated regularly and respected each other as parents.2

The New Relationships

Kat also revealed in her Q&A video that she was dating someone new. She said that she met him through a mutual friend and that he was very supportive of her situation.

She did not disclose his name or show his face in the video, but she said that he was not a social media influencer and that he had a daughter of his own.

She also said that he had met MK and that they got along well.

Kat also hinted that she might introduce him to her fans in the future.

Mike, on the other hand, has not confirmed if he is dating anyone new. However, he has been seen hanging out with other female influencers on his Instagram stories, such as @jessicabassjames and @kaylalaurenofficial.3

He has also posted some cryptic captions on his posts, such as “I’m happy” and “Life is good”.However, he has not officially announced any new relationship or introduced anyone as his girlfriend.

The Future

Kat and Mike have both moved on from their marriage and are focusing on their careers, their daughter, and their new relationships. They have also maintained a friendly relationship with each other and have shown support for each other’s endeavors.

For example, Kat congratulated Mike on his new podcast, The Stickler Show, and Mike praised Kat for her YouTube channel.

They have also continued to post content on their individual TikTok accounts, where they share their lives, their opinions, and their humor with their fans.

They have also shown that they can still be happy and successful after a divorce. They have both grown as individuals and as parents and have found new sources of joy and love in their lives.
