The couple told The Tennessean in a joint interview Monday they are no longer a couple.
Stork, 33, said the rules that prohibited them from dating or being together in public between the end of the show's taping in November and the Feb. 27 finale were hard on their relationship.
"You're in Paris and you're part of this incredible experience, this fantasy world, and then suddenly you come back to Nashville, and living in the same city I think we thought was going to be a great thing," he said. "But instead, you're forced to pretend you don't know someone, for essentially the last four months.
"The reality is that we were in this fantasy world. And now that we're back in Nashville, over time when you're not allowed to see someone, you grow apart."
ugghh....I wish I could get all those hours of my life I wasted watching this back. I was actually really hopeful that he'd find someone special. How sad..
"...over time when you're not allowed to see someone, you grow apart."
hmmmm. my bf and i dated long distance for 3 years and we did just fine even when we didn't see each other for months (ok, there was only one period when we went that long)....
i think he needs to come up with a better excuse like he realized how boring she was and he was missing moana or sarah from canada's excitement.
