Lorrana From ‘Seeking Sister Wife’ Is ‘Praying’ for Resolution Amid Rumors She’s Divorcing Garrick Merrifield
Lorrana from Seeking Sister Wife is “going through a difficult time,” she confessed in a recent Instagram Story post.
On April 16, Lorrana – who married Garrick Merrifield in the latest season of the TLC series about polygamous families – took to social media to reveal that she was “looking for a referral to a family attorney who speaks Portuguese.”
‘Seeking Sister Wife’ star hints at divorce from Garrick Merrifield
The native of Brazil didn’t share why she was looking for a lawyer. But late last year, she was involved in a domestic dispute with Garrick, with whom she shares a young daughter.
“If you can recommend trustworthy professionals or share helpful information, I would really appreciate it,” she wrote.
In a follow-up post (via The Ashley’s Reality Roundup), Lorrana said that she had “truly dedicated myself to a big change in my life,” referring to her decision to move to the U.S. to become Garrick’s second wife. The pair married in October 2024. They welcomed a daughter in July 2025. (Garrick legally divorced his first wife, Dannielle Merrifield, in an earlier season of Seeking Sister Wife so he could move forward with his plan to marry a different Brazilian woman. That relationship did not work out, leading him to pursue things with Lorrana.)
“I never imagined leaving my country, believing in a new beginning, building plans, and fully investing myself in this new chapter of my life,” Lorrana added. “Today I am going through a difficult time while trying to reorganize and rebuild my life. It is an emotionally heavy process, but I am trying to take it one day at a time.”
“It is difficult to understand how something that was once called ‘family’ can be redefined so quickly after a separation,” she continued.
Lorrana did not specifically mention Garrick or Dannielle in her post. And in a subsequent update on her Instagram Story she her would “prefer not to go into further details about the situation, as I want to protect myself and handle everything in the best possible way going forward.”
“I am praying that everything will be resolved in the best possible way,” she wrote.
Dannielle Merrifield says life has ‘been a bit challenging lately’
Garrick has not publicly responded to Lorrana’s post. On April 9, Dannielle shared in an Instagram update that she was focusing on her health after welcoming her third child with Garrick in 2023. She also said she was relying on her faith in a difficult time.
“Life has been a bit challenging lately,” she wrote. “But even in every trial and struggle God has a perfect plan.”
