On a recent episode of his “In the Booth” podcast, the former “Bachelorette” winner opened up about his ex-fiance and the current heartbreak she is facing.
When asked if he wishes Bristowe nothing but the best, he replied “Of course I do.”
“I feel like it’s at that point… where you don’t feel anything anymore. You move on,” he continued. “My ex, I just heard that she’s now broken off her engagement. Hopefully, she figures out what she wants and can get to a place where she’s happy.”
The 36-year-old continued, “I know it’s obviously very tough to go through a breakup, and then putting it out there for the world to see — that adds a whole other layer. So, yeah, I feel for her for that.”
