Vanessa starred on season 21 of The Bachelor, which aired in 2017 and ended with the Canadian contestant getting engaged to Nick Viall. But later that year, the reality TV stars announced their split.
“We gave this relationship our all and we are saddened that we did not get the fairytale ending we hoped for,” Nick and Vanessa said in a statement at the time. “We will continue to be there for each other no matter what. This hasn’t been an easy decision, however, as we part ways, we do so with lots of love and admiration for each other.”
While the breakup wasn’t easy, the exes have since gotten to a good place. Nick congratulated Vanessa on her engagement last year, and she joined him on his Patreon series, Nick V Talks Trash TV: A Bachelor and His Exes Tell All to discuss the end of their romance.
“We just weren’t able to match or meet each other halfway,” Vanessa said at the time, “although we thought we were.”
