GuardianAngel wrote:There are relationships that break up everyday. Weather they are together for 30 years or 3 months. I don't blame them for trying and enjoying the feelings two people experience in a new relationship.

I enjoyed it while it lasted because it's always a good thing to watch love. I know that none of these couples out of this franchise is a for sure thing, just like any other every day marriage or relationship.

I wish them both well.

Clare Crawley and Dale Moss have reportedly called off their five-month engagement.

The news was shared by PageSix which added the couple decided to end their relationship only 'last week.'

TMZ added that it was Dale who wanted to end the romance and he asked for the split only 'last weekend.'  

Earlier in the day E! news, broke the news that the 32-year-old former NFL wide receiver and the 39-year-old hair stylist were 'taking some time apart.' A source added that the two had been 'fighting a lot.'

The duo became engaged on season 16 of The Bachelorette with the proposal airing in November.

PageSix added, 'There’s a whole bunch of problems between them. I don’t know what the specific breaking point was, but she wants him to move to Sacramento and he’s not crazy about that. She wants kids right away, he doesn’t.'

E! made it seem as if there could have been hope for the couple.

'They are mainly in disagreement over lifestyle preferences. Dale wants to be in a lively city and focus on his career, and Clare is rooted in Sacramento to help care for her mom. It's been very tense recently between them,' the insider said.

Lately he has been in NYC while she was seen in Northern California.

Moss cares for Clare, but feels 'he's rushing into something he's unsure about.' It was added, 'They are both still getting to know each other and figuring it all out.'

And the friend noted, 'They've decided to take some time apart for now... They are still figuring out the logistics of their relationship and if they will stay together.'

Last week he gushed about his love. He appeared on the Raising the Bar With Alli and Adrian podcast as he said that he had never signed up to be on the ABC romance competition reality show but was nominated.

Moss said: 'Now, I could have never planned what happened because I was nominated.

'I never actually signed up. And I turned it down over, and over, and over again. And I actually finally committed to it four days before everyone was supposed to leave for the show.

'And the only reason I committed to it was because Clare was announced as Bachelorette at that time.'

He insisted that he didn't ever seriously consider throwing his name in the hat until seeing Clare on television in March 2020 and feeling like he had to meet her.

The former pro athlete said: 'She was so confident and passionate about it.

'And I know that she had been through this before, but I felt by watching her that this was her time and she was exactly where she was meant to be.'
