'We got engaged after dating for maybe five months and we got married a couple of months after that,' she told People Magazine in a previous interview.
They then separated in June 2019 and their divorce was finalized in 2021.
A year later, in October 2022, Rachael opened up about her split from Daniel.
'HAPPILY DIVORCED'
She gushed that she was "happily divorced" at the time.
Rachael also said of her ex, "We still share Halloween. We go out walking around together and my kids like my boyfriend [Kevin Mann] a lot and we're slowly just navigating what that looks like and it's tough.
"It's tough and it's certainly relatable to so many families out there,' she told Us Weekly at the time.
She added, "So I hope that this is a nice touchpoint for kids who have a new step-sibling. Maybe take a little bit of a cue from that."
Rachael and her ex-husband Daniel share two children from their marriage.
They are parents to a daughter named Charlotte, born in 2013, and a son named Theodore, born in 2015.
Rachael had been in a relationship with Kevin before she got with Brandon.
She and Kevin went Instagram official in 2021.
But according to several reports, the relationship ended "a few years later".

Katy Perry halts gig and asks audience to 'pray' after young fan's collapse on stage
A concerned Katy Perry attended to the young fan when she collapsed moments after being picked out of the crowd to meet her idol on stage Katy Perry halted a concert over the weekend after a young fan collapsed during one of her performances on her Lifetimes Tour. It happened during the singer's nightly ritual of inviting fans up on stage. She was about to sing The One That Got Away when the girl, reportedly named McKenna, appeared overcome with emotion after being chosen as one of the lucky few to get to meet their idol. But moments after stepping onto the stage, the girl is said to have fainted and was immediately attended to by a concerned Katy, her crew and medical staff at the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit. Billboard reported around 13,000 fans chanted McKenna's name as she was taken away to seek medical attention. Katy then pulled three other young fans into a group hug and led a prayer, saying: 'Dear God, we pray for McKenna, that she will come back fully and brighter and better than ever. Amen.' Revealing she knows how it feels to feel overcome on stage herself, the 40-year-old Firework hitmaker turned to the audience and said: "It's so much. Sometimes you're so brave and you can get on stage, and it's overwhelming. I understand that feeling." She went on to sing the track for the rest of her fans and while performing on a giant butterfly - which she almost fell from earlier on in her tour. Receiving news from backstage that the young girl was okay, Katy told the audience: "McKenna's doing great by the way." Katy is set to play more tour dates in the US and Canada, before heading over to the UK in October to perform gigs in Belfast, Glasgow, Manchester, Sheffield, Birmingham and London. She was already on her world tour when it was announced that she and partner Orlando Bloom had split after nine years. The pair were engaged and share a daughter, Daisy Dove, who turns five later this month. After weeks of speculation, a joint statement from the former couple said: "Orlando and Katy have been shifting their relationship over the past many months to focus on co-parenting. They will continue to be seen together as a family, as their shared priority is - and always will be - raising their daughter with love, stability and mutual respect." According to US Weekly, a source close to the pair said the split was amicable but "a long time coming". The source told the publication: "Katy and Orlando have split, but are amicable. It's not contentious at the moment. Katy is of course upset but is relieved to not have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life." Since the split, Pirates of the Caribbean star Orlando, 48, has been spotted flying solo at Jeff Bezos' wedding to Lauren Sanchez in Italy last month and linked to female celebs, including newly single Sydney Sweeney. While Katy reportedly enjoyed a 'dinner date' with former Prime Minister of Canada Justin Trudeau recently. It comes after the 53-year-old ex-politician split with his wife Sophie back in 2023. In response to the latest speculation, a fan posted an AI image of Orlando having dinner with another world leader - former German politician Angela Merkel. The caption quipped that the pair were "sipping wine and slurping oysters". The fan also joked that he "couldn't keep his hands off" the politician. Seeing the funny side, Orlando posted three hand clap emojis in response in the comments section.

Prince Harry responds to claims he 'struck Prince Andrew and bloodied his nose'
Prince Harry had addressed claims he punched Prince Andrew in the face at a family gathering in 2013 Prince Harry has refuted allegations that he left Prince Andrew with a "bloody nose" during a heated confrontation, as claimed in a explosive new book. The Duke of Sussex stands accused of striking the Duke of York at a family event in 2013 after calling him a "coward" in author Andrew Lownie's latest work Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York. Relations are said to have erupted between the Royal duo after Harry learned of "something Andrew said" behind his back, he writes, noting that the bond between the pair has remained strained for over a decade following the purported incident. In a fresh excerpt from the publication, Mr Lownie states: "At a family gathering in 2013, Harry and Andrew had got into a heated argument, and punches were thrown over something Andrew said behind Harry's back." In the book, which is being serialised by the Daily Mail, he continued: "According to a source close to both men, Harry told him he was a coward not to say it to his face. "Harry got the better of Andrew by all accounts, leaving him with a bloody nose before the fight was broken up," reports the Mirror. The writer also characterised Prince Andrew's rapport with both his nephews Harry and William as "problematic", with Andrew subsequently alleged to have informed the Duke of Sussex that his union with Meghan Markle would "not last more than a month". Harry's representatives have dismissed both allegations featured in the new publication. In a statement to People magazine, a member of the Duke's staff said: "I can confirm neither of those things are true. Prince Harry and Prince Andrew have never had a physical fight. "Nor did Prince Andrew ever make those comments about the Duchess of Sussex to Prince Harry." The book also claims that Prince William has been operating behind the scenes to back Andrew's removal from the Royal Lodge, the £31 million Windsor estate where the Duke of York resides with his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson. This comes after numerous reported efforts by King Charles to have his brother ejected from the 31-bedroom mansion, with the Duke of York seemingly determined to remain. Photographs from earlier this year revealed the property looking notably deteriorated, with black mould, dampness, and cracked paintwork evident around the exterior, as well as the outbuildings and the gatehouse. The Prince of Wales is reported to have "long harboured" contempt for both Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, according to the book, and would seek to remove the pair himself upon ascending to the throne should his father fail to do so.

Prince Harry reacts to claim he 'punched Prince Andrew in face' and 'called him coward'
Prince Harry is said to have punched Prince Andrew and left the Duke of York with a bloody nose after branding him a 'coward' during a 'heated' argument, a new book claims Prince Harry has denied claims that he left Prince Andrew with a 'bloody nose' during a furious altercation, made in a bombshell new book. The Duke of Sussex is accused of punching the Duke of York at a family gathering in 2013 after branding him a "coward" in author Andrew Lownie's new book Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York. Tensions are said to have flared between the royal pair after Harry was told of "something Andrew said" behind his back, he writes, adding that the relationship between the two has not improved over a decade since the alleged incident. In a new extract from the book, Mr Lownie writes: "At a family gathering in 2013, Harry and Andrew had got into a heated argument, and punches were thrown over something Andrew said behind Harry's back." In the book, which is being serialised by the Daily Mail, he added: "According to a source close to both men, Harry told him he was a coward not to say it to his face.

Prince Harry and Prince Andrew have never had a physical fight, nor did Prince Andrew ever make those comments about the Duchess of Sussex to Prince Harry." The book also alleges that Prince William has been working behind the scenes to support Andrew's eviction from the Royal Lodge, the £31 million Windsor estate where the Duke of York lives with his former wife, Sarah Ferguson. It follows multiple reported attempts by King Charles to have his brother removed from the 31-bed mansion, with the Duke of York appearing intent to stay put. Photos from earlier this year showed the property looking distinctly worse for wear, with black mould, damp, and cracked paintwork visible around the exterior, as well as the outbuildings and the gatehouse. The Prince of Wales is said to have "long harboured" disdain for both Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, according to the book, and would look to evict the pair himself upon taking the throne should his father not succeed.
