Influencer Katelynn Ordone and her husband, Jaelan Ordone, have officially separated after the death of their son.
Katelynn confirmed to People on Sunday, July 12, that she and Jaelan are divorced. One day earlier, Katelynn shared photos featuring an unidentified man via her Instagram while reflecting on her return to social media after her son’s untimely death.
“As many of you already know … I’ve had a hard time coming back to social media since losing Preston. I’ve struggled to even pick up my phone to capture new memories, knowing he won’t be in any more of them,” Ordone wrote via Instagram on Saturday, July 11. “It has been 443 days since my baby boy has been in heaven. There have been so many ups and downs, and while I’m still not ready to share everything with the world again just yet, I’ve finally started picking up my phone again and capturing new memories more often.”
She continued, “Even though it’s still hard, I’m grateful I’ve reached this point because I know that’s what Preston would want. I truly believe he wants his mama to continue finding joy until we meet again someday.”
Katelynn shared that she has a “new memory” she’d like to share with her followers, while posting photos of her smiling on a beach with a man.
“I hope to keep sharing more as I’m ready,” she wrote. “Thank y’all so much for all the love, support, and grace you’ve shown me through all of this.”
News broke in April 2025 that Preston died in a single-vehicle car crash. He was 2. Both Katelynn and Jaelan were in the car at the time of the accident and sustained injuries, while daughter Paisley was at school during the incident.
“Katelynn has multiple broken bones. She had a very bad concussion. She walked for the first time today,” family friends of the pair said in a video at the time. “Jaelan had to have emergency surgery on one of his legs, he has rods in them, pins in them. They’re both at different hospitals.”
The St. Tammany Parish coroner’s office shared one month later that Preston died from “blunt force injuries due to a motor vehicle crash,” with his death categorized as accidental. Katelynn, for her part, has shared that she has no memory of the accident.
“I don’t have any memory of the accident. I don’t have any memory of 2-3 days after the accident,” she said via TikTok in July 2025. I don’t have much memory of being in the hospital until towards the end. I suffered a traumatic brain injury and lost a lot of my memory.”
One month earlier, Katelynn paid tribute to Jaelan on Father’s Day. “Happy Father’s Day to the best daddy out there,” she wrote via Instagram in June 2025. “No holiday will ever feel the same without our Preston, but all he ever knew was love from his daddy. We may not understand now but we will see him again one day🤍.”
