Pause: Ben Higgins, famous for being single, says it has been “difficult” for his fiancee Jess Clarke to deal with postponing the wedding

Higgins, who was the protagonist of the 20th season of The Bachelor, said he is leaving most of the planning to Jess, who he said was having a “difficult” time with all the uncertainties.

“I think it has been very difficult for Jessica,” said Higgins. ‘I think the hard part is having it in your head, like,’ We could plan this, and maybe it couldn’t happen. It can be changed completely ‘.

‘This is hard. He’s also trying to plan it so that grandparents can come, with luck, so they can be there to celebrate with us. I think this is the most stressful part, just not knowing. ‘

Bad time: the couple was engaged in March, when the pandemic started to spread

Unlucky: ‘It wasn’t ideal for us last year’, admitted Higgins

The couple is also ready to marry to consummate the relationship, previously revealing the decision to wait until the wedding night to have sex.

“It hasn’t been ideal for us for the past year,” admitted Higgins.

– Because obviously, as I said, plans have changed dramatically in the past year. This was not part of our plan, to wait a year and a half. It had to happen because of COVID. ‘

The couple announced their engagement in late March, as coronavirus blockages began to become the new normal.
