The breakup post reads,
“Joseph and I have made the decision to love and support each other as best friends going forward. We recognized this is what’s best for both of our futures at this time. This decision was made with lots of love, care and acknowledgement of how special our relationship is to the both of us.”
Hale expressed gratitude towards those who shower love and support on their entire journey “from friends, to lovers and now back to friends”. She continued,
“We’ve seen every message about how watching an interracial relationship form impacted you, in-spite of the ongoing harassment, and we’re touched by how our love has inspired you.”
