Michelle Branch was noticed kissing her estranged husband Patrick Carney after allegations of infidelity

Michelle Branch is sticking to her word that she and husband Patrick Carney are working things out. She posted a black and white picture of her formerly estranged husband leaning in to kiss her on Instagram, letting her followers know things were back on track.

What the 39-year-old singer didn’t want was anyone’s opinion on her complicated marriage, so she made sure to turn off comments. (See the photo HERE.) There are a few reasons fans might say something negative about Branch’s relationship with the Black Keys musician. In early August, she announced her split from Carney after accusing him of cheating on her in a now-deleted tweet. That announcement was followed later that day by domestic violence charges against her for allegedly hitting him (the charges have since been dropped).

In mid-September, the “Goodbye to You” singer put the divorce on hold for six months while they work out their reconciliation. Given their Instagram snaps and the large PDA photos captured by TMZ on Sunday night, things are going quite well for the musical duo. They have been married for three years and have two young children together, four-year-old son Rhys and eight-month-old daughter Willie, and 17-year-old daughter Owen from their first marriage, Teddy Landau.

Branch has some regrets for taking her marital woes to social media. “I definitely shouldn’t have taken to Twitter to say anything,” she told People. “Here I am saying, ‘Please respect our privacy,’ but I’m the one who told the world.” That’s probably why she shuts down all conversation about her relationship with Carney on Instagram — Branch wants everyone know they are fine, but they need no further advice.
