He also denied that it had something to do with a third party, noting that the "cheating stuff" happened eight years ago.

Their reality show goes on, but the divorce will be strictly kept out of it. Flame made sure to clear that part up, saying "F**k no. I chose this life 14, 15 years ago, the whole relationship, when I chose to get in this arena of being a celebrity, so it is what it is."
