“Zach Bryan Caught on Celebrity Dating App Raya: Fans React to His Split from Brianna Chickenfry”

Renowned country music artist Zach Bryan was reported to have a profile on the celebrity dating platform Raya just a day before he publicly revealed his breakup with Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia, a Barstool Sports podcaster, on October 22. Screenshots of Zach’s supposed Raya profile have since gained significant attention on social media outlets like Reddit and TikTok.

One of the images featured Bryan holding clothing items in what seemed to be an evening studio setting, while another depicted him lounging on grass in sunlight, obscured by a baseball cap. Both images carried the description:

“Zach, 28, Songwriter. @zachlanebryan, Tulsa, OK.”

Fans have reacted vocally to the speculation surrounding Zach Bryan’s fidelity, with many expressing disappointment over his use of a dating app shortly after his breakup. A Reddit user, @ohiolifesucks, commented on a post by @littlelife_90 in the @r/Fauxmoi community featuring the alleged profile images.

“Had to Google what Raya is. This fool went on a celebrity dating app and thought he wouldn’t be exposed?” the Redditor remarked.

Numerous others joined the discussion on X, sharing similar sentiments.

“Zach Bryan signing up for Raya right after he and Brianna split is wild,” noted one fan.

“It’s insane that Zach Bryan was on Raya within 24 hours (or less) post-breakup,” wrote another.

“Zach Bryan jumping on Raya immediately after the breakup is crazy, and I have no one to talk to about it,” another user expressed.

Criticism towards the singer escalated, with users suggesting he has a track record of cheating.

“You have to laugh at Zach Bryan. He cheats, splits with women, then sings sad songs to make us pity him. It’s clever. But honestly, I tried to warn folks he’s not great, both musically and as a person,” wrote one netizen.

“I’m not a hater, but as a supporter of Team Deb, seeing Bri’s response and Zach back on Raya in under a day, shows that men can be disappointing,” fumed another user.

“Zach Bryan demonstrates how thoughtless disregard and causing women distress can impact your reputation and career. Success doesn’t equate to character,” stated yet another commenter.

Here are some additional critical observations about the Grammy-winning artist.

“The most bizarre aspect of Zach Bryan is how he seems to care about public perception, yet he has no awareness of how his actions will be interpreted. Joining Raya less than a day after the breakup? Did he think that wouldn’t be common knowledge?” a commenter questioned.

“For someone who sings about being an old soul overwhelmed by a fast-paced world, he certainly rushed to that dating site,” added another.

Amidst the unfolding situation, Zach briefly deactivated his social media accounts before reinstating them.

Understanding the Breakup Between Zach Bryan and Brianna LaPaglia

On Tuesday, Zach Bryan took to Instagram to announce the end of his relationship with Brianna LaPaglia. He stated that they had “broken up” but expressed enduring “respect” and “love” for her wholeheartedly.

“She has loved me unconditionally for a very long time, and for that, I will always be thankful. I’ve had a challenging year and faced significant personal struggles. I believed it would be best for both of us to part ways. I’m not perfect and never will be,” wrote the musician.

Additionally, the 28-year-old urged fans to respect Brianna’s “privacy and space” as well as his own, while also apologizing to anyone he may have disappointed. He concluded by stating that he has always tried his “best in everything” but often “let down” himself and those who love him.

In response to the highly publicized announcement, Brianna LaPaglia also took to her Instagram Story to express that she felt “blindsided” by her ex’s revelation and needed some time off social media to “heal privately.”

She shared that she would return to “talk” about her feelings when she was “ready” and expressed her appreciation to her followers for their support. The influencer also shared a handwritten poem on Instagram that read, “And eventually, you’ll find life goes on, even if you don’t want it to…”

Following that, Brianna uploaded a new video on her YouTube channel (@Plan Bri Uncut) titled “Love you guys, I’ll be back soon,” where she detailed her shock at Bryan’s post, mentioning that she woke up to his announcement along with a slew of messages from concerned fans checking on her well-being. She revealed that she had been “crying for five straight days” and was spending much of that time in her bathroom wearing a “crazy lady robe” as she processed the breakup.

For context, Zach and Brianna began dating in July 2023 and lived together with their dog, Boston, in Zach’s home in Duxbury, Massachusetts. They even made their red carpet debut together at the Grammy Awards in February this year.

Notably, around the same time, a woman named Brooke Almond publicly accused the “I Remember Everything” singer of infidelity involving her.

Furthermore, it’s worth mentioning that Zach Bryan began dating Brianna just two months after separating from his previous girlfriend, Deb Peifer, with whom he had a year-long relationship. Earlier, Bryan was married to fellow veteran Rose Madden from 2020 to 2021.
