90 Day Fiance star Evelyn Cormier has accused her estranged husband David Vazquez Zermeno of "mental and emotional abuse" in their marriage.

After four years of marriage, Evelyn shocked fans by telling In Touch Weekly that she "decided to divorce" David "after prayerful consideration and counsel" -- but the reason why she claims they split is even more startling.

"I've endured mental and emotional abuse because of a passionless, sexless and narcissistic relationship," Evelyn, 22, alleged to In Touch in a Monday statement.
"This is a good reminder that not everything you see on social media is reality."

Evelyn added, "This is a very difficult time for me and there is a long road of healing ahead, but I'm trusting God and the plan He has for me."
Meanwhile, David "completely" denied "those accusations" in a statement of his own.
However, David wouldn't get into detail when it comes to his side of the story.
"God knows the truth about all our marital problems," David said. "Out of respect to our marriage that lasted four years, I wish not to disclose any more details."
Evelyn and David noticeably deleted all photos of each other on their respective social-media accounts.

Evelyn's statement came after she reportedly previously mentioned her divorce in an Instagram Live session with her followers, although the video is no longer available.
Evelyn and David's marriage must have crumbled fairly recently since Evelyn had just expressed concern for her husband and asked for prayers on David's behalf in March.
"Please be praying for @davazer today. This morning he was struck by a car while riding his bike to work," Evelyn captioned a selfie of the pair in the hospital wearing face masks.

David was also dressed in a hospital gown in the picture that was apparently taken at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles.

"He's in a lot of pain and we are still waiting on the X-ray results from the doctor," Evelyn continued in her post. "Luckily he's in good spirits and did not seem to injure his head."
Evelyn concluded her post with a red-heart emoji and the praying-hands emoji.
And one month earlier, Evelyn defended her marriage and addressed breakup rumors, which began circulating when Evelyn was spotted without her engagement ring on and fans observed how there were few photos of the couple together on Instagram.
"It just gets annoying because, you know, people are constantly asking if we're still together or, you know, checking if I'm wearing my wedding ring or if I'm not wearing my wedding ring," Evelyn told People in February 2021.
"And it's like, you know, I do a lot of modeling on the side and I don't always wear my wedding ring, but that doesn't mean there's trouble in paradise. People like to read into everything."

Evelyn added at the time, "And I also think it's kind of a rude question to ask a married couple if they're still married. I'm not going up to married people and asking if you're still married."
Evelyn and David most recently appeared on 90 Day Fiance: Love Games, which streams on Discovery's new discovery+ service.
In addition to starring on Season 5 of 90 Day Fiance with David, Evelyn also competed on the 2019 season of American Idol, the show's seventeenth edition, on ABC.

Evelyn and David announced in October 2019 they were moving to Los Angeles for Evelyn's music career.
The pair got married in October 2017 and had previously been living in Evelyn's hometown of Claremont, NH.
Evelyn was an 18-year-old from Claremont and David was a 27-year-old from Granada, Spain when he arrived in America on a K-1 visa. They both came from religious Christian families and were saving themselves for marriage.
The couple met online after David saw the Facebook page for Evelyn's band, and he decided to send her a message.
Despite David's objections to living in a small town, they got married in Boston, MA, in October 2017 and then had remained living in Evelyn's New Hampshire hometown for a while.
In 2018, Evelyn auditioned for Season 17 of American Idol, which premiered on ABC in March 2019.
When Idol determined its Top 20 finalists in January 2019, Evelyn was one of only nine girls to make the cut for the Top 20 group.

Evelyn also made the American Idol season's Top 14 finalists, which were picked by the show's judges.
However, she was eliminated on the American Idol season's April 15, 2019 broadcast, which featured the Top 14 finalists being narrowed down to the competition's Top 10.
