Bachelorette Jenn Tran recently appeared on the “Bachelor Happy Hour” podcast to discuss her rocky relationship with ex-fiancé Devin Strader. She recalled key moments in their relationship, including how Devin asked producers about the longevity of Bachelor Nation couples right after they got engaged.

Jenn also revealed that Devin admitted to her that he loved her some days but not others. They had a difficult time in the show’s “happy couple” retreats, leading to fights and no compromises. Despite Jenn’s reassurance that they could work through their issues, Devin suggested couples counseling before ultimately ending their relationship. Jenn felt blindsided when Devin called off the engagement in a two-minute phone call, leaving her feeling confused and upset.
Prior to their engagement, viewers saw Devin threaten to quit the show if Jenn didn’t say “I love you.” After the show, Devin wondered if he should have left earlier than he did, hinting at doubts he had during filming. Jenn also alleged that Devin was spotted with his ex-girlfriend in New York after their split, leading to rumors about a potential reconciliation. Jenn received messages from people warning her and providing evidence of Devin’s interactions with his ex.
