Former Bachelorette Angie Kent and her “winner” Carlin Sterritt parted ways in July this year. After much speculation about the couple and the reasons for their split, both gave rather cryptic responses to why their fairytale ended.
Now, almost four months later and months of rumours, Kent has appeared on KIISFM’s Kyle and Jackie O show, explaining what really happened. Well, from her point of view anyway.
“We were so smitten with each other on the show, but we were so different [in the real world]. Both of us were different,” she said.
“I’m always myself, but he got to see me full throttle, and I was stressed after the show too. He was very religious and had all these ideas that I should be a certain way when I wasn’t.”
Kent then went on to say that she doesn’t want to be with somebody “who wants me to change. I want somebody to love me for me.” Amen!
Later, the former reality star admitted she wasn’t ready to “jump into” anything else just yet and said she wasn’t “cuddling with anyone”.
“I’m so boring. Carlin and I only broke up a few months ago, and I don’t want to jump straight into something else. I don’t know if I trust yet,” she said.
Back in July, Kent took to her Instagram to announce the couple’s split.
“Matters of the heart are extremely difficult and I’m sad to say that Carlin and I have broken up. I wish him nothing but the best in the future. I appreciate everyone’s concern and the investment that many of you made into the show and our story, but this is real life and we both need privacy and time to heal.”
“Please remember we are both human beings like everyone else, so be kind if you do choose to leave comments or messages. Words can be very hurtful – and compound already difficult times.”
