During an interview on the Scrubbing with Becca Tilley and Tanya Rad podcast, the blonde beauty admitted that it took her a very long time to recuperate after he split from Shawn back in November of 2019. She also admitted that she didn’t feel “safe in the relationship.”

The reality television star further explained that she didn’t realize how unhappy she was until she pulled the plug on her relationship with Shawn. The former couple got engaged during Kaitlyn’s Season 19 finale of The Bachelorette in 2015.

“I pushed away a lot of friendships. I didn’t realize how miserable I was or how out of touch I was with myself and my confidence until — and I’m not trying to, obviously, blame Shawn … but I felt a lot of shame from the show. I felt a lot of insecurities. I didn’t feel safe in the relationship. I was constantly working on myself, constantly going to therapy to not feel those things,” she said.

Even though both Kaitlyn and Shawn live in Nashville now, they are yet to run into each other. However, Kaitlyn says that even the prospect of her running into her ex makes her feel nervous.

“I play this scenario in my head more than I should because first of all, I think — and again I’m not trying to speak for him and I don’t know — but I truly think he just will never understand me or respect certain decisions and I think he’s just gonna hold onto anger with me,” said Bristowe. “I would play nice and even though he hurt me so terribly and things I’ve never even talked about, I hold anger too, but I know if I saw him I wouldn’t be able to be like ‘Meh,’ that’s just not me.”
