Alex Georgia took a moment to set the record straight after apparently âbeing made the bad guy,â following an announcement earlier this year that he and Kat Luna decided to part ways âboth musically and romantically.â The former married duo, known as Kat & Alex, announced their split in July.
Georgia and Luna, however, separated earlier than that. The Nashville-based American Idol alums have separately said on Instagram that they split in May, including when Georgia took to his Instagram story on Monday afternoon (September 25) to âclear the air.â His statement also comes shortly after he shared a gender reveal video with a surprise proposal for his now-fiancĂŠe. Georgia said in videos shared to his Instagram story on Monday:
âSo, Iâm getting on here to clear the air. I know I said I wouldnât. But Iâm just kind of tired of being made the bad guy in this situation. Iâm not gonna sing a song bashing somebody. Iâm not petty like that, guys. Hereâs the deal. Kat and I split in May. OK. May of this year. We were not allowed to announce the split. Why? We were under contracts. Thatâs the entertainment business for yâall. Donât mix relationship and entertainment if you donât want that to happen to you. Hereâs the deal: We could not announce the split. Did I move on? Yes, I moved on. I moved on kinda fast compared to what some people would consider is a normal time frame to move on. Thatâs fine. Thatâs just me. Thatâs my life. But I did not â OK, I repeat â I did not find somebody while I was in a relationship with Kat. Even though our relationship was not that good. OK? I know that what you guys saw is what you guys saw in videos and stuff like that. But hereâs the deal: not everythingâs what it seems, especially on social media.
âWith that information, you guys can go ahead and make whatever assumption you want. Hereâs the deal: Stop idolizing celebrities. A lot of yâall are just â youâre looking for something in human beings that are gonna fail you. Iâm not saying I was perfect. I was not perfect. Neither was Kat. OK? Both of us have faults, both of us were at fault for the relationship not working. Itâs a team effort. OK? But hereâs the deal: If you idolize people, celebrities, politicians, youâre always gonna find yourself disappointed because weâre human beings. Yâall need to focus on Jesus. For real. Youâre getting way too upset about a relationship that didnât work between two human beings, OK? Thatâs all I got to say. I love you guys. God bless yâall. If you wanna DM me and talk more, go for it. Iâm an open book. But man, just be happy, yâall.
âThatâs the end of my rant, if you wanna call it a rant. Iâm just being real with you. I love God, I love people, I love music, and Iâm gonna keep doing it until the day that I die. If you wanna talk more, DM me. Iâm here. Bye, y'all.â
Kat & Alex shared statement in July, announcing, in part: âAfter 4 years of love and music, we have mutually decided to part ways both musically and romantically. We are so incredibly grateful for the time God has given us together with not only each other, but with yâall. âŚAlthough we will not be doing music together as Kat & Alex, we will still be pursuing our dreams individually as Kat Luna and Alex Georgia. It would mean the world to us to have your continued support on our individual journeys. We love yâall so much.â
Over the weekend, Georgia shared a gender reveal video with a tribute to âa new beginningâ on Instagram. The video opens with the singer-songwriter and his now-fiancĂŠe praying together before finding out that theyâre expecting a baby boy. After the gender reveal, Georgia reached into his cowboy boot and pulled out a ring to pop the question. He said afterward on his Instagram story that the gender reveal and proposal âwas nothing short of incredible.â Georgia wrote in his caption on Instagram when he posted the gender reveal video: âHereâs to a new beginning đšđđ¤ God at the center, we canât wait to see what is in store for our little family đđ˝ Thank you Jesus đ¤â
