NEWS: Caleb Shomo comes out; wife responds

Caleb Shomo, frontman of hard rock band Beartooth, has come out a "proudly gay man" in a post on Instagram:

His wife of 14 years, Fleur Shomo, who has since made her Instagram private, issued a statement of her own saying: "The past few months have been a very disorientating and hurtful time to navigate. For both of us. But I will always want to love, protect and support Caleb."

The two met when Caleb was 17 (he's 33 now) and still establishing his first band, Attack! Attack!. It was long distance at first but they established good communication as a bedrock and everything went from there until Caleb's announcement. The pair recently announced their divorce.

She continued her statement, "To support him whilst losing everything has been incredibly hard to figure out. You can love and support your person through the hardest time in their life, whilst also be completely demolished & lose yourself at the same time."

Shomo spoke positively about their marriage, though, saying it was "wonderful and full of so much fun, adventure & love."

She continued by telling the naysayers out there that "Nobody will know anything about our marriage like we do. And no one can ever truly know what depths of love exist between two people unless they are those people. I already miss it & my husband more than anything. Our story was a good one. And now it’s done."
