Caleb Shomo and wife Fleur Shomo have officially embarked on a new chapter in their lives. The couple has filed for divorce nearly two months after Caleb publicly came out as gay. The news follows his emotional announcement and Fleur’s message of support.
The couple filed for divorce two months after the Beartooth frontman publicly came out as gay
Caleb Shomo and Fleur Shomo filed for divorce together in Los Angeles Superior Court earlier this week, according to Page Six. The couple married in April 2012 and has no children together. The filing arrived almost two months after the Beartooth frontman declared himself “a proudly gay man.” Caleb shared the personal message on Instagram on May 23.
Later, Fleur posted her own statement on social media. She said she was hurt and disoriented when Caleb made his announcement. Despite all that, she assured him that she would love and support him in this new chapter. Many fans praised her for being kind and understanding during this difficult period, sending her their gratitude.
Some people criticized Caleb and claimed that he had wasted years of Fleur’s life. Others came to his defense and pointed out the struggles many LGBTQ+ experience prior to coming out. Fans also remembered Caleb’s difficult past, including his struggles with anxiety, depression, eating disorders and substance abuse. Many people said that his journey helped them to understand their decision and their quest to find happiness.
Caleb also reflected that personal journey in Beartooth’s recent music. In February, the band released the song “Free,” which he described as the beginning of a new chapter in both his life and career. The fans lined up in the comments section with encouraging messages and bassist Oshie Bichar also stood by his longtime bandmate. As Caleb Shomo’s divorce moves forward, fans continue to support both him and Fleur.
