However, somewhere around last year, Fish posted a series of Tweets, which supposedly announced their break up. Hamlin never confirmed the reports thereafter. Fish also promptly deactivated her accounts soon after. One of the tweets read, “I have been quiet for too long for far too long… and I have endured things no one person should EVER have to endure and today was no exception. @dennyhamlin I hope everyone will finally see you for the person you truly are.”
