There are statements which are independent but not provably independent

If the independence of a statement is a meta-mathematical theorem, then the existence of statements which are independent but not provably independent is a meta-meta-mathematical theorem.
See the post: Are there statements that are undecidable but not provably undecidable (undecidable is here synonymous of independent) and the positive answer (under ZFC, assuming its consistence).
