Former Miss Universe Australia Olivia Molly Rogers has described her emotions as “raw” after it emerged that she and husband Justin McKeone are separating after four-and-a-half years together.

The pair announced their split on Tuesday, after getting married in February.

“This time has just shown me how many beautiful friends and family I have,” she said.

“Even from strangers the support has been really overwhelming and that’s been the nicest thing because you’re always so terrified of how things will unfold.”

The pair tied the knot in February after getting engaged in 2019.

She last posted with Justin in August during a trip to New York.

“There’s a lot of speculation but as I said the details are private and I’m just grateful for people being nice and respectful.”

Rogers spoke about the split for the first time since its announcement at the Bianca and Bridgett spring collection launch.

Speculation swirled over the pair‘s marriage after fans noticed she had changed her name from Olivia McKeone to her maiden name on social media.

Ms Rogers then announced that she and Mr McKeone “made the difficult decision to separate as a couple” in a statement shared to Instagram.

“After 4.5 years together, Justin and I have come to the difficult decision to separate as a couple,” her post read.

The couple initially got engaged in 2019, but their wedding was postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
