Ghost Adventures star Aaron Goodwin offered a rare update on his life in the year since his now-estranged wife, Victoria Goodwin, was arrested for an alleged murder-for-hire plot.

“After all this time, I am still not doing good at all,” Aaron, 50, wrote via Instagram on Friday, November 13. “My heart is crushed, and I feel so betrayed from what I thought was my best friend and love of my life but she tried to kill me and pled guilty for her crime.”

Victoria, 32, was arrested in March 2025, six days before Aaron filed for divorce, on charges of soliciting to commit murder and conspiring to commit murder. Victoria pleaded guilty to the conspiracy charges and was sentenced to 90 months in jail.

“We [are] still in the middle of divorce,” Aaron claimed on Friday. “I really can’t believe [I’m] having to go through all this when she is in jail and tried to kill me 😢.”

Aaron married Victoria in 2020. She claimed last year that she began communication with Grant Amato — who is serving a life sentence in a Florida prison for the murder of his parents and brother — about wanting to leave her marriage. In police records obtained by Us, Victoria allegedly told Amato she wanted to “end [Aaron’s] existence.”

Aaron, for his part, felt threatened by Victoria’s alleged murder plot.

“I’ve hired secure, armed security for weeks, not knowing it was over or not a lot, always looking over my shoulder and having to go through therapy and even trying to understand any of it,” Aaron claimed in a statement shared during Victoria’s June 2025 court hearing. “It’s like a heartbreak no one should go through in life. I can’t trust anything anymore. I cry every day. I feel so alone.”

“I have been stuck at home and been so lonely this year and a half, but I want to thank the people that have been there for me,” the TV star noted on Friday, shouting out his supportive inner circle who have been “checking in on me almost everyday and listening when I am so down.”

Aaron, who remained grateful to friends and fans alike for “being there for [him].”

“I get the chance to meet [you] all and thank [you] all for your awesomeness and kind words,” he concluded. “I truly love [you] guys.”
