Bachelor Nation fans watched Kat Izzo and Dale Moss meet and fall for each other on Season 10 of “Bachelor in Paradise.” The two left the beach together as a couple, but since the show wrapped, it has appeared they’ve gone their separate ways.

And until now, neither Kat nor Dale had publicly confirmed their breakup. Kat recently joined the “Bachelor Happy Hour” podcast, where she officially confirmed their split and shared behind-the-scenes details for the first time.

During the interview, Kat revealed, “I guess I was in a relationship last time you guys saw me and last time I spoke publicly. So this is my first time speaking, but things have changed.”

Kat went on to share more about their relationship, including feeling uncertain about their future early on.

“I was very clear that I don’t do long distance. I don’t want to do long distance, and I’m willing to put in some time if that’s the goal and we’re moving toward it actively,” she said. “I was under the impression that his life is really fluid at the moment, so he said he wanted to leave New York and all these things, and sounds like San Diego was a total option.”

She continued, “I could never get a full answer. Then he was like, ‘Let’s table this for now,’ and said that other couples in this space didn’t come together until, I don’t know when, maybe a year later or something.”

“As things started to settle,” Kat added, “I was like, no — actually I don’t really care what other couples do. That’s what I want. That’s how I want to grow this relationship. I thought you were in a space of life where you could, because that’s what we talked about.” She explained that it eventually felt like if Dale did move, he might hold resentment toward her. “San Diego is apparently, to him, not anywhere he could grow his career… I never really got full answers. I don’t really know what the true reason was.”

Kat reflected that looking back made things even harder. “I don’t really know what was true. The problem is, after everything is done, I now look back to those moments when we had hard times and the responses I got, and they could very well not be true. They could very well be what he thought I needed to hear in the moment.”

Kat then shared when she first felt real cracks forming in their relationship.

“Honestly, probably while [‘Bachelor in Paradise’] was airing,” she said. “I’m watching situations I thought I understood.” She pointed specifically to the Allyshia and Jonathon situation. “I noticed that he was not honest with me. In Paradise, I was told that — when I was first told that by Jonathon about how Dale said that he wanted to go on a date to get me worked up — which is my worst fear because I get worked up really easily… that became a big thing.”

Kat explained that Dale initially told her the comment came from Sean and insisted Jonathon wasn’t even in the room. “So I’m like, ‘Oh, maybe Jonathon misunderstood.’ Moved on.” However, that changed shortly before the episode aired. “We were driving back from some event …and he mentioned that …it was actually said outside of the room and that it did come from him. But he said that Jonathon still was not said to him,” she continued. “Then I actually watched him say it to Jonathon’s face, and I’m like, you don’t mix that up. That happened.”

At the same time, Kat said she was also watching how Dale interacted with Allyshia. “I didn’t even know Allyshia didn’t like me. I didn’t know any of that, so it’s bringing back a lot of old trauma from two years ago.”

“That was one of the hardest episodes to watch. I really needed him to reassure me and talk it through, because I can be really understanding and forgiving,” she shared. “But it was completely deflected… It kept getting minimized, in my opinion.”
