According to Mike, when he t0ld his wife that she somehow feels distant and distraught, she replied by saying, “Just leave me alone or you’re going to hear something you don’t want to hear.”
Obviously, Mike wanted to hear what she has to say so he asked her to tell him. According to Lindell, this is what his wife said, “I don’t love you. I never loved you. You’re boring. We don’t have anything in common and you’ve ruined the last two years of my life.”
Mike also maintained that he filed for divorce in mid-July and it was finalized sometime later. The couple had a prenup which means Mike saved himself from shelling out a huge amount of money in a settlement.

“People told me at the wedding she told people I’m not going to be married very long. This is very short-lived.”
In addition, C.J. also added that when she spent time with Yocum and Mike, before the wedding, at Eden Prairie’s Lions Tap, she found Dallas a bit distant.
