Shayne Lamas and husband Nik Richie are ending their relationship after more than a decade together.

The former Bachelor star, 35, announced the news on Instagram Monday.

"Friends & Family, after 11 years together Nik and I have come to a loving conclusion to get a divorce, we have nothing but love and respect for one another and will cherish the years shared, memories made, and the children we are so proud of," Lamas wrote alongside a photo of herself and Richie wearing boxing gloves.

"This is just the situation of two people growing apart," she continued. "We ask everyone to respect our privacy as we navigate our new normal within our family."

She last shared a photo of the entire family on Instagram to mark July 4 last year.

"When you completely filter your family cause you look like a mess, Happy 4th most importantly happy 5th to my son!-sdlr," she captioned the family selfie.

Lamas and Richie welcomed Lyon in 2015 after the reality star suffered a miscarriage the year before.

"I'm not the best person in the world, but I love my wife and my family," Richie wrote on his blog at the time, PEOPLE previously reported. "Shayne is my good person. She is my support and my smile. I found you and I never want to let you go. We will overcome."
