“This is not how I imagined beginning this year or this new season of our lives. This has been an incredibly painful time for me and for our family. As many now know, our marriage has been deeply hurt and my trust has been broken. Right now, I am taking life one day at a time and focusing on what matters most: our children, their future, and my own healing,” she posted on Instagram. “After privately expressing deep regret and sorrow for his actions, Travis told me he felt it was important to publicly take accountability for what he has done, and I support his decision and desire for transparency,” Bates explained before admitting that she is seeking advice from an attorney.
“We are working through this privately, seeking counsel both together and individually as we try to determine the best path forward for our family. I am also being supported by legal counsel. This is not a quick or easy process, and it is not one I am taking lightly. Every decision about our future will be made slowly and carefully, with what is best for our family and our children as the highest priority,” she added.
She then confirmed her desire to work on their marriage: “I do believe in God’s power to restore, and my heart’s desire to preserve our marriage.”
The couple had their first child, Hailey James, back in 2023. They had a son, Harvey Gray, the following year.
Bringing Up Bates aired for 10 seasons on Up TV and followed Gil and Kelly Bates, their 19 children, and their extended family. The Bates family was also on a TV series called United Bates of America on TLC.
