Ryan Sutter, a former Bachelorette contestant, recently took to his official Instagram account to share a heartfelt message about his relationship with wife Trista Sutter. Alongside a black and white photo of Trista leaning on his shoulder, the 49-year-old former football player opened up about their journey.
“We do our best – to do and to be good, to live and to treat others well,” Ryan began in his detailed caption.
The television personality acknowledged the uncertainty they face, stating, “We make decisions not knowing the outcome but hoping we’re on the right path – hoping the questions will be answered in time. We try to be a positive example, to care, to trust the process and to believe others will trust our intent is not malicious or misguided or mean.”
Ryan emphasized their commitment to living with purpose, building meaningful relationships, and contributing to the common good. “We do our best to remain easy in a difficult world, to be honest in deceitful times and to be open when it’s safer to stay closed,” he added.
Reflecting on finding balance in their lives, he continued, “We seek balance – teetering mostly back and forth but sometimes…. Sometimes we land in just the right spot.”
Acknowledging the challenges, Ryan concluded optimistically, “They are always out there – these moments – though not always easy to find. But we do our best…. #love.”
This heartfelt post comes three days after Ryan shared a family vacation snapshot, where he noted that “absence makes the heart grow fonder,” further sparking speculation about their relationship.
Earlier, Ryan had posted a cryptic Mother’s Day message expressing his sadness over Trista’s absence, which initially raised concerns about their relationship status.
