"Just want to say thank you to everyone for reaching out these last few days. Sorry if I haven’t responded but the messages don’t go unnoticed. My heart breaks for everyone who knew him," she wrote in her Facebook post, via People.

Mallett and Seeley married, and separated, in 2020, which Seeley says was caused by "cheating."

"We began building a new beautiful home across from my grandparents in cotter and we got married. Then came Covid, cheating, and drama around the corner to wake me up from this fairytale I thought I was living," Seeley wrote in a 2020 Facebook post. 

While an investigation is still underway, officials did say that there were "no rip currents" present when Mallett drowned.
