Susanna Hoffs Shocks Fans by Revealing Her Divorce Case Was a Hoax
In an unexpected twist, Susanna Hoffs, iconic member of the Bangles, revealed in a statement on Thursday that her ongoing divorce case with her husband, Jay Roach, was nothing more than an elaborate prank. The announcement left fans and media outlets stunned, as the news had been widely covered, with many speculating about the couple’s relationship.
Hoffs, 65, took to social media to clarify the situation, posting a video of herself laughing. “I know it’s been a wild ride, but I have to tell you — the divorce case was all part of a joke. Jay and I have been happily married for over two decades, and we just wanted to mess with everyone for a bit,” she said with a smile.
According to Hoffs, the idea for the prank came during a casual dinner conversation. “We were just talking about how seriously the press takes every detail of our lives. And Jay said, ‘What if we had some fun with this?’ So we came up with the idea of a divorce case, just to see how long it would take for people to catch on. Turns out, it took longer than we thought!”
The prank was carefully orchestrated over several months, with Hoffs and Roach even enlisting legal professionals to draft the fake divorce papers. “It was all in good fun,” Hoffs continued. “We never meant to hurt anyone, and we never expected it to blow up the way it did.”
Fans were left scratching their heads, some expressing confusion while others praised the couple for their sense of humor. “I guess you could say we’re still ‘Eternal Flame’-ing it,” Hoffs quipped, referencing one of the Bangles’ biggest hits.
For now, Hoffs and Roach remain together, proving that sometimes, even love and marriage can be a little lighthearted — and a bit mischievous.
