Reality Star Brianna LaPaglia Finds Strength in Special Forces After Tumultuous Relationship

In the latest episode of the hit reality show Special Forces, which aired on October 23, 2025, contestants Brianna LaPaglia and Jessie James Decker faced physical and emotional challenges. LaPaglia, 26, revealed that she joined the show to help her overcome a "really tough year" following a public and tumultuous breakup with country singer Zach Bryan.

LaPaglia claimed she was "emotionally abused" in the relationship and that Bryan had tried to "silence" her by offering her $12.9 million to sign a non-disclosure agreement. However, LaPaglia refused the offer, stating, "I was that strong girl making videos of what not to do and who to stay away from and I don't know what happened. It happened to me."

During the episode, the recruits were paired off and instructed to jump backwards from a platform into the water below. Decker, 37, hit her nose hard against the water, causing a slight injury. "I feel like it broke," Decker told her fellow recruits, though she noted she had a "bump" on her nose even before the incident.

LaPaglia, who had previously documented her own rhinoplasty journey, used the show as an opportunity to push herself both physically and emotionally. "I am doing the course because I have had a really tough year. I was in a very public relationship," she said in a confessional. "It ended really badly. I don't know exactly who I am and it will teach me more about myself."
