Kimberly Perry Of The Band Perry Files For Divorce From J.P. Arencibia

In a surprising turn of events, Kimberly Perry, the lead singer of The Band Perry, has filed for divorce from her husband, former MLB player J.P. Arencibia. The couple, who were married for four years, have decided to part ways, citing irreconcilable differences. The divorce papers were officially filed on March 2 in Greeneville, Tennessee, marking the end of their public relationship.

According to reports from People, a representative for Perry confirmed the news and requested privacy for the couple during this difficult time. Perry took to Instagram on March 4 to share a brief note with her fans, acknowledging the end of her marriage and giving insight into her emotional state. Despite their separation, she emphasized the importance of respect and privacy as they navigate this transition.

Perry, 34, and Arencibia, 32, exchanged vows on June 12, 2014, at Greeneville's Christ Chapel First Presbyterian Church. Their wedding was a family affair, with Perry's brothers, Neil and Reid, serving as her best men, while Arencibia's nieces acted as groomswomen. Their love story began at the Florida Strawberry Festival in 2012, where Arencibia, a fan of Perry's music, managed to get backstage to meet her.

As Arencibia retired from major-league baseball in 2017, the couple maintained a relatively private relationship, seldom sharing public displays of affection on social media. However, Arencibia did express his love for Perry during her birthday on Instagram last July, calling her "my everything" and sharing heartfelt sentiments about their bond. This unexpected divorce has left many fans shocked, as they had not anticipated such a turn in their relationship.
