Adam Gontier Relationship Timeline: from Naomi Brewer to Current Family Life
By Elena Rostova
The year 2013 was a watershed for Gontier. In January, Three Days Grace announced that Gontier had resigned via an attorney's letter, citing unspecified non-life-threatening health issues just weeks before a co-headlining tour with Shinedown. Fans were stunned. The band released audio of Gontier's voicemail resignation, sparking intense online debate between loyalists.
Away from the rock press spotlight, Gontier and Brewer's marriage was also ending. The couple filed for divorce around the same time, keeping their legal proceedings out of tabloids. Unlike typical celebrity separations, neither Brewer nor Gontier used the press to wage character assassinations.
Why did they split? The pressures of two decades together, threaded through severe substance abuse, constant touring, and the gradual drift that occurs when teenage sweethearts become world-weary adults, had taken their toll. Gontier retreated into isolation, took on acoustic charity dates, and went completely dark on social media for months while recalibrating his health and legal standing.
