Deb Peifer did not address Zach Bryan and Brianna Chickenfry directly in her comments and provided a measured take on the situation.
"I don’t really think that I have to say this, but I kind of think I want to. I’m not 100% sure yet honestly. But I just want to be clear on the fact that I don’t find any gratification in other people, specifically other women, hurting," she stated.
"I feel like I’ve seen some comments on my personal social media pages alluding to the fact that I do, and I don’t. So I just wanted to make sure that was clear."
"I think that emotions are so nuanced and so complicated, but I don’t feel better because other people are hurting in any capacity. I don’t think you should either, but that’s your journey," concluded Peifer.

Rumors of Zach Bryan separating from Brianna Chickenfry, whose real name is Brianna LaPaglia, began on the night of October 21, after his profile was reportedly spotted on the celebrity dating app Raya.
Bryan announced the news on his Instagram story the following day, stating, "Addressing something: Brianna and me have broken up with each other and I respect and love her with every ounce of my heart. She has loved me unconditionally for a very long time and for that, I’ll always thank her."
"I have had an incredibly hard year personally and struggled through some pretty severe things. I thought it would be beneficial for both of us to go our different ways. I am not perfect and never will be," he continued.
"Please respect Brianna’s privacy and space in this and if you have it in your heart, mine too. With everything I am and to anyone I let down, I am sorry. I try my best in everything. I failed people that love me and mostly myself.”

"I’m just at the point where it’s like, how can you give someone everything, and love them so unconditionally through stuff that you shouldn’t… because you just love them and you want them, you see the good in them…. this is so embarrassing," she stated. "I don’t give a f***. How can you give every ounce of yourself to someone and then be discarded in a few days? It’s really, really heartbreaking and I don’t wanna talk about details right now.”
