Melissa Rycroft captioned the Instagram post as, “Please be kind to us tonight....
Listen, nothing about it was ideal, I think we can all agree to that. But it doesn’t change the fact that the outcome was inevitable.
People always ask, “Are you still mad at them?” Why? Why would I be? (First....I was never mad at her at all....). But over a decade later, we’re both married, both have beautiful families, so why still be upset? We all moved on from the situation so long ago, that having to relive it again almost feels like watching other people go through it!
So please be kind. Jason and Molly are great people who have created a beautiful life together. And I’m right where I am supposed to be...and with who I was meant to be with. None of us are angry, none of us hold a grudge, and oddly none of us regret it, because look where it took us! We may have come out if it all a little scarred, but it made us all so much stronger!

However, feel free to enjoy the terrible fashion (lots of satin, hair poufs, and of course the infamous scarf/tank top combo.....) and horrendous trends (barely there eye brows, and over exposed UV skin...)!! I think we might all agree, THAT is the most embarrassing thing to come out from all this....!”
