Cheryl Burke implied she may be going through a new, private struggle as her bitter custody battle with her ex-husband, Matthew Lawrence, continues.

The Dancing with the Stars pro met the Mrs. Doubtfire actor in 2006 and the former couple said "I Do" in 2019. They were married for three years before calling it quits — but their divorce has been far from smooth sailing.

"We are going to go to trial — unless he all of a sudden calls it off, but that would happen… and that will happen in January," she explained at the time, adding that she found it "cruel" that Lawrence was putting her through this because she "can't even imagine [her] life" without her pup.

Despite all of the back-and-forth, Burke claimed she is "proud" of the woman she is becoming following her high profile split.

"Today I can say that I’m no longer pushing those fears away or running away from them. Instead I’m choosing to invite them in and take action so that I can stop facing the world with fear, and start embracing what makes me uniquely ME," she wrote via social media on Tuesday, October 18.

Continued Burke, "By choosing vulnerability and self love I have also realized along the way that some people may not want to hear it or be a part of it however, it’s who I am and more importantly by sharing my journey it takes any shame I’ve had away and in result, it’s what brings me a sense of peace and ease which is ultimately what I’m striving for in my life right now."
