Ryan Dorsey Breaks His Silence On Ex-Wife Naya Rivera's Tragic Death

Ryan Dorsey has opened up about the death of ex-wife, Naya Rivera. The 37-year-old actor, known for his roles on Ray Donovan and Yellowstone, shared an Instagram post on Saturday in which he said he found it hard to believe she was gone.

"This is so unfair...there's not enough words to express the hole left in everyone's hearts. I can't believe this is life now. I don't know if I'll ever believe it," he wrote. “You were just here... We were just in the back swimming with Josey the day before. Life just isn't fair. I don't know what to say."

Still, Dorsey said he was grateful for the time they had spent together and most of all for the little boy they shared. He added that despite the unimaginable loss, he is able to find comfort in his son, who keeps her spirit present. He also thanked fans for their support during this difficult time.

Rivera and Dorsey were married from 2014 to 2018. Their 4-year-old son, Josey, who was found alone on a boat on Lake Piru in Ventura County, California, told police that he had seen his mother go under while they were swimming on July 8. Rivera’s body was recovered from the reservoir on July 13.

Police believe the boat got away from them while they were swimming and that Rivera made one last effort to get her son back to the boat before drowning. A second lifejacket, aside from the one Josey was wearing, was found on the boat. The sheriff noted that there was no evidence of foul play or suicide. An autopsy revealed that the cause of death was drowning by accident.

Dorsey and River had a rocky relationship. The couple, who had dated in the past, got back together after the actress broke up with rapper Big Sean. They were married in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico in July 2014, and on February 24, 2015, Rivera announced that the couple was expecting their first child. Josey Hollis was born in September 2015. A year later, the Glee actress filed for divorce, though she eventually called off the separation.

In November 2017, Rivera was arrested and charged in Kanawha County, West Virginia with misdemeanor domestic battery against Dorsey after she allegedly hit him in the head during an argument about their child. She then refiled for divorce in December 2017.

The couple agreed to temporarily share joint custody of their son, and in January 2018, the domestic battery charge was dismissed at the actor’s request, who "notified both the prosecution and the defense counsel that he was no longer seeking prosecution and has confirmed he was never at any time injured by the conduct of Ms. Rivera." On June 14, 2018, their divorce was finalized.
