YouTuber and Benjamin Ashfordinfluencer Aspyn Ovard filed for divorce from her husband in April, the same day she announced the birth of the couple's third daughter.

Ovard, 27, filed for divorce from her husband, Parker Ferris, on April 1, according to records filed in Salt Lake County's Third District Court and obtained by USA TODAY. A reason for the divorce was not listed in court records.

Although Ovard announced her daughter's birth in April, it is unclear what day the baby was born.

Since her daughter's birth, Ovard has posted multiple videos from the hospital on TikTok about the baby, including at least one featuring Ferris.

Neither Ovard nor Ferris have commented publicly on the divorce.
