Brianna ChickenFry reveals FaceTime with Zach Bryan’s ex-wife: ‘Never felt more validated’

Brianna “ChickenFry” LaPaglia has revealed a surprising connection with Zach Bryan’s ex-wife, Rose Madden, after their respective relationships with the country singer ended.

Speaking on the latest episode of the BFFs Podcast with Dave Portnoy and Josh Richards, Brianna shared that she spent hours FaceTiming Rose in a candid conversation.

“I FaceTimed with Rose for a couple of hours actually,” Brianna, 25, shared. “I have never felt more seen and validated in my life. She’s a great person.” While keeping details private, Brianna added that the interaction was meaningful for both women.

Rose Madden was married to Bryan from 2020 to 2021, while Brianna and Bryan dated for over a year before their October 2024 split. The breakup became contentious, with Brianna accusing Bryan of emotional abuse. She also revealed that Bryan had offered her $12 million to sign a non-disclosure agreement, which she declined, emphasizing her independence before their relationship.

The FaceTime revelation comes after Rose left a positive comment on a video featuring Brianna, which host Dave Portnoy noted during the episode. “Every single person from his past has basically, in their own way, confirmed everything,” he added.

The relationship drama has continued to unfold online, with fans closely following the updates on Brianna and Zach Bryan’s tumultuous split.
