I hardly ever talk about Cheryl Burke, but I was upset when she filed for divorce from Matthew Lawrence. I remember when they moved in together and the engagement ring he designed for her. I felt they were a really solid couple. Well, I was wrong. And it may be that Matthew is a giant douche-nozzle. Somebody in Cheryl’s life is, at least. Her fans seem to think it’s Matthew. Cheryl and Matthew, who met when Matthew’s brother Joey appeared on Dancing with the Stars, married in 2019. They were cute together without a lot of gossip. In February this year Cheryl filed for divorce, citing January 7th as their split date. Since the filing, Cheryl has been talking a lot about how hard the split has been. She’s even taken some swipes at Matthew without naming names. On Wednesday, Cheryl released a TikTok video where she, once again, did not name names, but talked about finding incriminating evidence of an affair after “he said he would never talk to her.” Now fans are split with many thinking this is a spotlight on why she left Matthew and the rest thinking it’s someone Cheryl’s dated since.
Cheryl Burke posted a bombshell TikTok video that led many fans to speculate her estranged husband, Matthew Lawrence, cheated on her.
“When he said he would never talk to her again yet I found text messages, viagra, and a necklace hidden in a pair of his shoes,” the “Dancing With the Stars” pro, 38, wrote over the clip Wednesday.
In the social media upload, set to Adele’s “When We Were Young,” Burke stared straight at the camera and shook her head, looking fed up.
“The last time is absolutely right!” she added in the caption. “Goodbye forever…#exessuck #goodbyeforever #hopeitwasworthit.”
“It’s sad to think Matthew did that. Kind of dampers his image for me,” one user wrote.
Another fan added that she was “boycotting everything Lawrence moving forward.”Others advised TikTokers to stop “making assumptions” about the “Mrs. Doubtfire” star, who wed Burke in May 2019.
“Didn’t they divorce in January why are people saying it’s Mathew??” one user asked.
A second noted that the estranged couple have “been done.”
Originally, I thought Cheryl was talking about someone new. Cheryl and Matthew have been spilt since Jan/Feb and Cheryl’s hashtags made me think she was kissing someone off presently. But I dug around a little and maybe she is talking about Matthew. First of all, as I said above, Cheryl’s really struggled with this split. She even went back to the location where they got married and posted about processing her feelings. So she’s adrift over whatever ended them. Last month, she talked about being lonely and wanting to date, but there haven’t been any rumors about her dating anyone. And last week, Matthew was photographed in Hawaii with TLC’s Chili. The word from Matthew and Chili’s camp is they have been longtime friends and that he and his buddies caught the TLC performance on the island. Honestly, the photos support that. But it doesn’t mean they didn’t set Cheryl off.
I don’t know if Matthew and Chili are dating. I think he may have fooled around on Cheryl, and it sounds like he did it after she’d caught him once. But what I do know is that Cheryl is definitely hurting, and I feel bad for her. I hope she’s able to get some kind of closure. I know she worked for her marriage. I’m sure she’s conflicted, and I know she’s been struggling with her sobriety of late too. I hope she is surrounded by a really good support network that she can lean on right now.

She’s insufferable!
She and Matthew split in January (according to her). Eight months later, he’s pictured with a friend at the beach, and *that’s* when she wants to post “he cheated on me” TikToks? All this is doing is making people think that Chili is the woman Matthew cheated with.
Maybe he did tho… lol And if that’s the case, seeing pics of them together would set her off big time, seems like he really broke her heart.
If my ex was in the public eye and everyone just thought he was *such a good, sweet guy* I might be inclined to put him on blast to let the world know he’s a cheater too.
They’ve always seem to have problems. I remember years ago when they were together the first time, there were rampant rumours that he caught her servicing her DWTS dance partner (the other Lachey brother not Nick) in a dressing room. I’m pretty sure they broke up soon after anyways. I was shocked when I found out they reunited and actually married like a decade later.
“servicing” ??? What are we back in the middle ages? That’s pretty misogynistic view of a woman having consensual sex with someone…
I get so incredibly uncomfortable when people passive aggressively air their relationship issues like this over social media. I’m going through a divorce right now and cannot fathom composing TikTok’s pointed at my ex. It’s just embarrassing honestly, when people do this. Everyone copes in their own way I guess…
Agreed. For the life of me I cannot see how this is a healthy way to cope. Alice Evans should be a cautionary tale for all.
I would have never recognized her without the headline. Is it a wonky angle, or has her face undergone some changes? She’s pretty, there’s no insult intended, I am just taken aback by the difference…
I thought the same thing, but in that first picture I think it’s a combo of weird angle and no make up. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her not “on”.
Viagra in a shoe sounds like an indie band name or a Fall Out Boy song, lol.
Obviously it’s about Matthew because, if she were dating someone new, there’s zero chance she’d have kept it secret and stayed silent.
I hope she works through these feelings and stays sober. I’ve been sober 5 years, and I understand the urge to numb the overwhelming emotions can feel like too much. But she’s obviously having a hard time letting go of these resentments if she’s posting 8+ months after the fact. I get the urge to drag him, but ultimately I think it will just make her feel worse.
I honestly can’t stand this woman. There have been stories for years about how awful she is. So I cant muster a ton of sympathy if two douche nozzles break up with each other.
I don’t know who this woman is and she’s pretty messy, but I do love the fact that she not so subtly called out his boner problems
I like her freckles.
And I think airing out what happened is one of the few ways that women who’ve been cheated on can get a semblance of support and justice.
When men hold most of the money and power, women have to adapt by using less official channels – gossip and quiet discussions
Cheryl has had rumors about her being involved with her married dance partner more than once I find her behavior posting a passively aggressively post about Matthew right when pictures came out him and chili Is shady as hell she knows people will think chili is the other woman and start harassing her especially chili is a woman of color.
OK Vanessa, but Cheryl is a woman of colour too…. and maybe Chili is the one he cheated with!
@SRSLY?
Or maybe Chili is not, your making that assumption with out any facts to back it up and that Vanessa point
It seems more like she angry because he’s moved on while she has not.
I feel for Cheryl. Ever since she shared that she had an abusive boyfriend who beat her with his belt my heart goes out to her. Now the possibility of your husband cheating on you with someone? I have never been in a physically abusive romantic relationship but I was beat by my father with a belt as a little girl. It’s heartbreaking, confusing and cruel. I hope she gets through this with therapy and gets her own happy ever after.
I totally understand the desire to shame/get revenge on a cheater. The same way certain country songs are so satisfying to listen to. But from a perspective of mental health, it’s so much better to win through moving onwards and upwards.
I feel for her, cheating is a heartbreaking mindf*ck and it really damages the betrayed
