Bubba Page Confirms Divorce from Ex-Wife Jordan Is 'Final' After 17 Years of Marriage: 'Wouldn't Wish It on My Worst Enemy'
The Utah-based influencer couple, who share eight kids, have finalized their divorce after 17 years of marriage
Bubba and Jordan Page are officially divorced after 17 years of marriage.
The Utah-based influencer announced his divorce from Jordan has been finalized in a post shared to Instagram on Sept. 29, six months after sharing with followers that they'd be "discontinuing their marriage."
Bubba, an entrepreneurial influencer and father of eight kids, posted a "life update" explaining the news. The lengthy caption was written alongside a video featuring various clips of his children.
"The divorce is final, the judge signed the decree. It’s not how I envisioned my future, but God has been so good to me throughout this process. Even with Gods guidance, healing, tender mercies and love, I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy," the caption began.

"I am focused on navigating this next chapter with love and care for our children and continued healing for them and myself," his caption continued. Bubba and Jordan share four sons and four daughters.
"Co-parenting is a journey, and we are committed to doing it in the best way we know how—ensuring that our kids feel supported, loved, and safe," Bubba wrote. "I want to thank everyone who has shown kindness and support through this difficult season. Your love and prayers mean more than words can express. 🙏"
Bubba concluded the post, writing, "I look forward with faith and hope as this new journey begins. I can see light at the end of tunnel. I know with surety that God knows my kids and I individually, He knows my heart, He knows my desires and He knows where I’ve been and where I am going. I trust in Him and His plan he has for me. ☀️"
Bubba first shared that he and Jordan were discontinuing their marriage in March. "While divorce is never ideal, we do things differently in the Page Household," he wrote alongside a carousel of family photos.
While Bubba said they wouldn't be discussing the matter further at the time, he ensured his followers that there was no ill will between the pair. He also shared that they'd be prioritizing the needs of their eight kids.
"We still love and respect each other, support each other, work extremely well together, and will continue to do so," he continued in part. "You will still be seeing us in each others’ content from time to time, as we are still - and will always be - a close-knit family of 10, and our topmost important goal is to be the best co-parents possible for our kids."
Jordan is a digital creator and founder of The Page Company. Like Bubba, she posts her family's day-to-day happenings across platforms while sharing advice on topics like budgeting and productivity.
The mom of eight has yet to share the divorce news on her own Instagram page, though she recently opened up about parenting as a single mom earlier this month. While she admitted that she's "not perfect," she said she's "trying."
"Time with my 8 kids is precious to me. And if there’s one thing I’ve learned over the last few years, as my kiddos get older especially, is that it’s about QUALITY, over QUANTITY," she wrote in part alongside a video with her children.

Both Bubba and Jordan have built platforms for their respective openness and transparency with their followers, between their wins and life challenges as a family.
On April 29, the Influence.vc founder explained the meaning of “Familyversary” to their kids. In his Instagram caption, Bubba noted that it's a celebratory day their "family of 10 began 17 years ago" and "a way for us to celebrate with the kids, this important day in our family’s history." He added, "I’m so grateful for these kids and couldn’t imagine life without them."
Bubba continued in part, "Of course a divorce is incredibly difficult to navigate, it’s painful and gut wrenching, and we’re trying to do everything to help the kids feel the least impact in their lives."
