Brianna Chickenfry cancels BFFs Podcast ‘due to all the backlash’ amid Zach Bryan split

Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia is having “the week from hell” as she announced the cancellation of her BFFs Podcast this week due to the heartbreak of her Oct. 22 divorce from Grammy winner Zach Bryan.

‘Hey guys! We’ve been trying to record this week but I’m having a really hard time figuring out how I want to handle this publicly because of all the backlash,” the newly single 25-year-old said in a statement Wednesday.

‘This week I’m going to put my mental health first. [My co-hosts Josh Richards and Dave Portnoy] want to make sure I’m doing what’s best for me. I need to prioritize the right things this week. I hope you can all understand.’

The “reaction” Brianna was talking about involved her not publicly wishing her Plan Bri Uncut co-host Grace O’Malley a happy 26th birthday last Sunday after a particularly tense conversation about the latest episode of their podcast.

“I haven’t had TikTok in months. But apparently everyone there only talks about my life. So please, I’m not interested in sharing my personal relationships online anymore because the internet wants to ruin them all so badly,” LaPaglia said via Instastory on Wednesday.

“Grace has been like a sister since I was 15 years old. I privately wished her a happy birthday. I’m sorry, but I’m having a terrible week and I’m tired of feeling the need to explain myself to people who don’t know me. I love you guys and that’s all.”

Meanwhile, O’Malley admitted “There’s no denying” the past year “has been quite a whirlwind for” their friendship, but asked her followers on Wednesday to give her co-host “the space and time she needs to move on and heal.”

Brianna – who has 3.5 million followers on social media – promised to “set some boundaries and keep some things to myself.”

The 28-year-old country crooner publicly announced the end of their 15-month relationship on Oct. 22 — leaving LaPaglia “blindsided.”

“I’ve personally had an incredibly difficult year and have had to deal with some pretty tough things. I thought it would be helpful for both of us to go our separate ways,” Zach wrote via Instastory.

‘I am not perfect and never will be. Please respect Brianna’s privacy and space in this and if it is in your heart, mine too.’

The Barstool Sports star fell in love immediately Plan Bri Uncut YouTube page to reveal she cried for ‘five days straight’ and didn’t realize Bryan would go public with the breakup.

“This is so embarrassing,” Brianna shouted.
