They were Bachelor In Paradise’s golden couple and even became engaged on the show’s epic finale, but now it seems Tara Pavlovic and Sam Cochrane have called it quits.
The couple, who became engaged on the show after just four weeks of dating, took to social media to announce the split.
“This message goes out to all the beautiful people who shared with me such an amazing journey,” Sam wrote alongside a photo of the couple’s engagement. “The fairytale that I took part in was deep and surreal. My proposal was meant to be forever but life sometimes takes you away from the dream and you wake up.
“So…deep breath…. this has come to an end. I loved Tara with my whole heart and those two people in Fiji fell completely. It’s hard writing this thinking back to those moments.”
He continued:
Your joy in our story and the engagement meant so much and I can assure you it is the saddest thing for me to come to terms with. Watching something you valued fall apart and what you love follow a different path is one of the most difficult things.
My heart feels broken and obviously having it play out in public adds so many difficult dimensions.
I forgot about the cameras in Fiji and I simply fell in love. The truth is difficult but the path ahead will show the way.
Obviously there has been speculation for some time but I needed to know for sure before making anything public. That has been hard. Our time together will always hold a beautiful and difficult place in my heart and I have to believe that everything happens for a reason.
Thank you everyone for the beautiful support and being on this journey. In a time that was mostly in hiding your words provided magic.
I look forward to the future. I got to see that love is real and powerful…. and it is. I’ll find it again.
Last month rumours of a split started circling after eagle-eyed followers noticed the pair had unfollowed each other on Instagram. The modern-day break up.
The couple then appeared to re-follow each other, but now it seems it really is over for the pair.
