Bachelor Grant Ellis and Juliana Pasquarosa Split Less Than 3 Months After Revealing Engagement: 'We Both Gave This Our Best'

Grant Ellis and Juliana Pasquarosa are going their separate ways.

The Bachelor couple — who met and fell in love during the 29th season of the reality dating series — have ended their engagement less than three months after it aired on television.

Ellis, 31, announced the news on his Instagram Story on Friday, June 13, writing, “This is one of the harder things I've had to write, but I want to share it honestly. Juliana and I have decided to end our relationship.” 

“We both gave this our best and poured a lot of love into each other, but after a lot of deep conversations, we've come to the understanding that we're simply not the right fit long term. What we had was meaningful,” he continued. “The connection we built on the show was real, and so was the effort we made to continue once the cameras stopped rolling.” 

“There's no negativity here. No resentment. Just two people who care about each other and want the best for one another moving forward. I'll always be grateful for what we shared and for the growth that came with it. Thank you to everyone who supported us and believed in our journey. This chapter is closing, but we're both walking away with love and respect in our hearts.”

Pasquarosa, 28, also shared the news on social media, writing on her Instagram Story, "It's a gift to find someone who sees the world in a way that resonates with you, while encouraging you to grow. I've been grateful to share that experience with Grant."

“Marriage is a commitment, and it’s one we both still believe in deeply," she continued. "After a lot of honest conversations and reflection, we’ve come to the decision that this chapter of our lives is meant to continue on separate paths."

She noted the pair "shared something meaningful, navigating a unique journey side by side [and] learning, growing and showing up for each other the best we knew how."

"While this isn’t the ending we once imagined, it’s one filled with mutual respect, care and hope for what’s ahead," she said, adding they will be "cheering each other on, just from different places now."

She concluded her message by asking fans to "please be kind."
