Rob Dyrdek Applauds “Brave” Wife Bryiana Dyrdek for Sharing Her Autism Diagnosis

Rob Dyrdek is showing his eternal support for wife Bryiana Dyrdek.
 
The Iconic Beauty president recently opened up about her autism diagnosis, noting that after taking time for herself, she wanted to share details about her development.

"After a few months of privately processing my autism diagnosis, I decided to come out about it because the little girl in the last slide deserved better," Bryiana wrote alongside a March 20 Instagram post. "I've finally reached the acceptance phase of my late diagnosis and am filled with more hope and peace than ever before. So, if you see me acting different, it's because I am."

In turn, the 31-year-old received an outpouring of support, which included praise from her husband of seven years, Rob.

"Brave, Beautiful and truly special," the MTV alum—who shares kids Kodah, 6, and Nala, 5 with Bryiana—commented. "You are a gift to this world. You have always been perfect and always will be. Love you so much."

As Bryiana explained in her moving post, she was formally diagnosed with ASD (autism spectrum disorder) in December 2022.

"I'm still new to this journey and have three decades of learning, unlearning and re-learning to do," one of her graphics read in part. "So, I ask for your patience and grace as I go down this new path to rediscover myself...the me I was always meant to be."

That said, Bryiana noted that her future is brighter than it ever has been before.

"I've learned so many life-changing (and potentially life-saving) things about ASD, I can't keep this all to myself," she continued. "I've been so scared to come out with this publicly because it wasn't received well when I first shared it with some of the closest people to me and that really hurt. But I've finally reached the acceptance phase of my ASD late diagnosis and am filled with more hope and peace than ever before. So, if you see me acting different, it's because I am."
