Jacqueline Centeno and Andrew Centeno, who married in 2013 and share two children, faced a life-altering transformation when Andrew came out as transgender and transitioned to Anni. Initially, their relationship was marked by an emotional distance, exacerbated by Andrew's struggle with gender identity. In January 2022, after starting therapy, Anni disclosed her feelings to Jacqueline, which shocked her but did not immediately lead to thoughts of separation. As Anni embraced her true self, Jacqueline experienced difficulty adjusting to the changes, both emotionally and physically. The couple navigated the transition together, but by late 2025, they recognized that their bond had evolved into a strong friendship rather than a romantic partnership. They decided to divorce, yet continue to live together for the sake of their children, focusing on co-parenting with love and respect.
