Additionally, Chase claimed that the two did not officially date but "spent a night together in Charlotte."
He added, "She's a cool chick, from what I know of her. I got no problem with her. I got no problem with him."

She continued, "This is just the situation of two people growing apart. We ask everyone to respect our privacy as we navigate this difficult time within our family."
