Jana Kramer is facing a reality she ‘never wanted to believe could be possible again.’ The ‘One Tree Hill’ star is splitting from her husband, Mike Caussin, for a second time after six years of marriage.
“It’s time,” Jana Kramer solemnly wrote to announce that the country singer and her husband, NFL player Mike Caussin, are separating after six years of marriage. This is their second time going through a split, after Mike, 34, filed for divorce in 2016; Jana, 37, touched on this as she added, “As I try to make sense of a reality I never wanted to believe could be possible again, those words have now become a reality.”

“I’ve fought y’all. I’ve loved hard. I’ve forgiven,” Jana continued, referring to Mike’s past unfaithfulness. When she and Mike first went their separate ways, the football star was engulfed in a publicized cheating scandal. He ended up going to treatment for sex addiction, and the couple was able to patch up their marriage. Looking back at the effort she invested into this up-and-down relationship, Jana continued to write, “I’ve put the work in. I’ve given everything I have, and now I have nothing else to give.”
“Please know that I still believe whole heartedly in marriage, love, and rebuilding,” the One Tree Hill star continued. “I just can’t fight any longer. It’s time to heal. Thank you for all the love, heart, and support, in many ways you have fought on this journey alongside me, and for that I am grateful. I’ll always encourage you to continue the good fight, but you can’t fight it alone.”

Seven months before announcing the separation, Jana and Mike appeared to be closer than ever. They co-authored a book, The Good Fight, which documented how they overcame their relationship struggles and Mike’s infidelity. Jana even opened up about these hardships in an EXCLUSIVE interview with HollywoodLife after the book was released in Sept. 2020.
“When there’s infidelity in a relationship, it’s not like you just stop talking about it. Trust me, I wish we could stop talking about it. It’s not like we bring it up every day, but there are triggers and triggers will always be there,” Jana said on HollywoodLife‘s podcast in Oct. 2020. She added, “Now the weight isn’t as heavy, but I’ll still get triggered if something happens, or if maybe there’s a small lie, because it was a traumatic event in our relationship.”
Mike Caussin and Jana Kramer began dating in 2014, and tied the knot in May of 2015. They announced their separation in Aug. 2016, and Mike began treatment for sex addiction. The formerly estranged couple renewed their wedding vows in 2017.

But again, the weight isn’t as heavy and we don’t talk about it every day. But it has become our story.”
