Lupita poured her heart out on Instagram and wrote a lengthy, heartfelt message about the pain and heartbreak she went through.
She wrote:
"There are much more important things going on in the world right now, and my thoughts are with those who are deeply suffering. At this moment, it is necessary for me to share a personal truth and publicly dissociate myself from someone I can no longer trust…
"I currently find myself in a period of profound sorrow resulting from a love that was abruptly and profoundly extinguished by deceit. It is tempting to retreat into the shadows and await a return to the light when my strength is restored enough to proclaim, 'My life is better without this.'
" I share this with complete candour, in the hope that my experience might offer solace to others navigating the grip of heartbreak, individuals tempted to evade the pain and potentially miss the valuable wisdom it can bestow. #Breakup"
