Lorraine Nash Is Youtube Star David Dobrik's Ex-wife: More about Their Short Marriage

David Dobrik surprised his fans when he posted on Instagram about his wedding with Lorraine Nash. But the end of that marriage came as swiftly as its build-up a month earlier.

In the previous year, Dobrik had said his goodbyes to his girlfriend of three years, Liza Koshy. The couple had a very public relationship, and their heartbreak was as public as that of their fans.

So, when a surprise announcement came about Dobrik getting married, some fans thought the former YouTube power couple was finally back together. However, Dobrik's post showed that he had married Nash instead.

How Did the Surprise Wedding Come About?

Lorraine Nash is the mother of Jason Nash, who is David Dobrik's close friend.According to Dobrik, a conversation he had with his friend, Nash, gave him the idea to marry his mother. During a conversation with talk show host, Jimmy Fallon, Dobrik said:

"So basically, I was in the car with one of my good friends (Jason Nash) and he told me that I would never find love. I think it was that same night I booked a flight to Boston, where his mother lives and I proposed to her."

The idea of Dobrik becoming her son's stepfather, which Dobrik mentioned during the proposal, quickly convinced her to say yes.

Shortly after the proposal, the two flew to Las Vegas, where they said their vows. The wedding took place on May 18, 2019, in the presence of a few of Dobrik's friends, at the popular Little White Wedding Chapel. The announcement was in an Instagram post that read:

“Last night I became my best friends stepfather by marrying his mother. So grateful for this opportunity. I’ll treat you as my own. Love you Jason, now go take out the trash it’s stinking up our living room."

After the wedding in Vegas, the newlyweds quickly hopped onto a plane. They headed for the beautiful islands of Hawaii for their honeymoon, where they participated in various exciting activities that made Lorraine feel as if they had been married for "50 years."

The Post Honeymoon Phase

After the honeymoon, Dobrik posted a 4-minute vlog of the events that had just taken place. The video began when Jason and Dobrik had the conversation about Dobrik not ever going to find love up to the moments shortly after the newlyweds return home from the honeymoon.

The proposal, the wedding, and the honeymoon had happened without Jason's knowledge. Hence, arguably, the best was saved for last, as it shows how Dobrik told his now stepson, Jason, about his recent union with his mother and how Jason reacted to the news.

Jason did not seem bothered by the news but found its funny side and laughed through his shock. He congratulated Dobrik with a handshake and welcomed him to the family. A nice moment to end what was an epic and unconventional few days for Dobrik and Lorraine.

The Divorce

While some fans were still in doubt of the legitimacy of their marriage, less than a month into their hastily arranged marriage, the couple decided to go their separate ways. The divorce announcement was made on Twitter on June 12, 2019. It said:

"I am heartbroken to announce that Lorraine and I have split. I wish her nothing but the best. We may have rushed into things but that's what happens when two young people fall in love. Please respect our privacy at this time."

Although Dobrik admitted that the divorce process was hard as it took a long time to finalize, the wedding became part of the prankster's bag of tricks for the amusement of the fans. Accordingly, the wedding was designed to fail shortly after the event.

Sharing Thoughts on the one-month marriage

According to "Entertainment Tonight," "David Dobrik learned a lot from his one-month marriage to Lorraine Nash." This comment came after Dobrik had an interview with the entertainment news channel where he opened up about his brief marriage.

His happiness was also caused by the idea that it meant that now Dobrik could take care of Jason's children.

From Dobrik's point of view, he enjoyed his time in the marriage, with the couple going on various adventures while they were still together. But after a short while, he realized that marriage required a lot of effort, and he was not ready for it yet.

David Dobrik and Jason Nash's friendship after the divorce

After his parent's divorce, Jason was apparently not affected by it. And so was his friendship with Dobrik. The former father and son have remained good friends and continued their adventures together just as they did before the marriage.

After the divorce, David Dobrik proclaimed that Jason was still his son, and to help him through the divorce of his parents; he bought him a Tesla worth $75 000. A grand gesture to his son, who is twice his age, after marrying and divorcing his mother, who is three times his age.

Dobrik mentioned that Jason was happy for him to join the family. His happiness was also caused by the idea that it meant that now Dobrik could take care of Jason's children, who would, by Dobrik marrying his mom, become Dobrik's grandchildren.

In the end, Dobrik got massive viewership and publicity for his wedding, with millions of people watching the wedding video posted on his YouTube channel. He blissfully explained that "I think everyone was pretty happy about it… it was the best time, all jokes aside."
