Katie Bates and her family chose to change forever after her husband Travis Clarks admitted to the affair and the scandals that followed.
“Life has been a little different lately, but I’m so excited for what’s to come!” Bates, 25, took to Instagram on Saturday, May 16, sharing a video diary highlighting her family’s move.
“The last few months have been very difficult and life has changed more than I expected,” he continued. “There’s been a lot of hard conversations, a lot of therapy, a lot of prayer, and a lot of finding health for our family going forward.”
He added, “Even though some parts of my life have been in the public eye, there are some deep personal things that I’ve been going through in private that have influenced this decision in ways that people may not know or fully understand. I know except that this film may not make sense to everyone, but it’s something that we’ve spent a lot of time praying and working through together. It’s not about running around or pretending everything is working … like a new life adjustment.”
In January, Clark, 24, revealed she had cheated on Bates, just hours after the reality TV alum announced she had suffered a miscarriage. (Bates and Clark have been married since 2023 and share two children.)
“It’s hard to write this, but I’m honest and I have to apologize,” Clark wrote at the time. “I was unfaithful to my wife, I had an affair and broke her many times. There is no excuse for what I did.”
Months later, the Raising Bates The alum’s husband gave an update on the state of his marriage, admitting that he is fighting for his wife following her infidelity.
“I’ve been doing it for a few months now, and I feel like I’m in but it’s hard to find the right words,” Clark wrote on Instagram in March. “At the end of last year, I made decisions that I deeply regret, I’m disappointed, I’m ashamed and to be honest, I’m disgusted.”
He continued at the time, “The last few months have been humbling. A lot of hard work, therapy, time with God. I know I don’t owe you anything, but I fight hard for my wife and family every day.”

On Saturday, Bates said that “more than anything” the couple has been “trying to make decisions” and choices that can only help “healing, peace, spiritual growth, and a healthy environment” for their family.
“We still have things to work on and learn about, but I’m very excited about the future and everything this next chapter holds for our family,” Bates concluded in the post. “The prayers of our family as we enter this new chapter are always appreciated.”
In an accompanying video, Bates revealed that his family has bought another house in an undisclosed location and – with the help of some moving boxes – will be moving in 30 days.
