She concluded: "Though our journey as husband and wife concluded, we will continue to raise our children (and the dogs) together. Thank you so much for your continued love & support."
Just a few months after Annie's parents announced they were separating, it was decided that the family would be taking a hiatus from vlogging.
“This is kind of sad, because YouTube has been the place that Hayley and I grew up on…This doesn’t mean that we’re going to stop vlogging forever," the Chicken Girls actress said in the December 2019 video. The girls explained that they want to use their time to focus on other projects and vlogging for Brataley is no longer enjoyable.
