Last July, The Australian reported that the former couple enjoyed a ’50-50 split of the proceeds’ from Sweat’s $400 million sale.
The former couple, who had been together for eight years, co-founded the Bikini Body Training Company, later renamed Sweat, after meeting in late 2012.
The business partners sold their health and fitness empire to US software giant iFIT Health & Fitness Inc for $400 million, The Courier Mail reported.
In 2020, the Sweat app generated a staggering $99.5 million in revenue, with the majority of sales coming from the US market.

‘Happiness. Glad I ran into you @RacheljDillon,’ she wrote.
