Relationship experts share tips on how to start dating again after divorce
Moving forward after divorce can be difficult, but relationship expert Dr. Ramani has tips to help you dip back into the dating pool.
NBC meteorologist Dylan Dreyer has officially filed for divorce from ex Brian Fichera.
The Today weather correspondent filed for divorce from Fichera on March 10, People magazine and US Weekly reported. She first announced their breakup in July after breaking up several months ago. Dryer, 44, and Fichera, who married in 2012, have three young sons, Calvin, Oliver and Rusty.
USA TODAY has reached out to Dryer’s representatives for comment.
In an emotional Instagram post on July 18, Dreyer insisted the two remain close. “We started as friends, and we will always remain the closest of friends,” she wrote at the time. By November, the “Misty the Cloud: A Very Stormy Day” author told Jenna Bush Hager during an appearance on “Today” that “everyone has their own reasons for separation and divorce, and that’s another story of getting drunk, which is a whole other story, but we got here anyway.”
she continued. “For Brian and I, there’s something liberating in the fact that if a marriage breaks down, for whatever reason, it can be fixed, ideally, and you can try to fix things. Or you can accept that it’s broken and move on.”
She added that they were “really happy” during their separation. “And I don’t get mad about other things that I used to get mad about, because like friends, I can be a little more forgiving when we’re not married. And I’m a better friend than my wife.”
Although the former couple has “rebuilt” their relationship, the “Today” host added that Fichera remains involved in his children’s lives, including daily school drop-offs and family dinners.
“We talked about it with the kids, too. I asked Calvin, ‘What do you think family is?'” Dryer said. “And he said, ‘Well, it’s a group of people who love each other,’ and I said, ‘That’s who we are, and that’s what we will always be to you.’ … And he doesn’t care about titles. He doesn’t care what we are officially, none of them care. They are surrounded by love every day. ”
