Dale Moss addresses his separation from Clare Crawley

Dale Moss addressed his separation from Clare Crawley amid continuing reactions and accusations that he cheated on the Bachelorette star.

Taking to his stories on Instagram, the 32-year-old posted a video message where he said he finally feels comfortable talking after having time to ‘process’ things.

The reality star said he was speaking publicly about the breakup after fans started accusing him of not being upset about the end of his engagement to Clare, 39.

‘I know many of you have seen me smile on social media and say I don’t look so hurt or overwhelmed by it, but that is the most distant thing [from the truth]said Dale.

He credited his family and friends for helping him through difficult times before adding that there is “no one to blame” for the end of their relationship.

“This time was horrible, and thank God for having the friends and family I have, because they literally had to carry me in the past two weeks.”

‘Building a relationship in general is difficult. Especially when you’re doing it in the public eye, ‘continued the 16th season winner.

‘The media will take things and execute with them. People will spread lies or always want to point the finger, but the fact is that there is no one to blame in this situation.

“Like any relationship, we had our ups and downs and examined our things, but the statements that came out did not come out of the blue.”

Dale said he still loves Clare and respects her “enough that she knows how I feel, even if it goes against everyone’s expectations.”

‘It will take time. I wanted nothing more than to make this relationship work and I put my heart and soul into it every day. I wanted nothing more than to build a healthy relationship, ‘he added.

‘Although this is difficult, what you will see in me is to try to practice what I preach and continue to put my best foot forward each day. And while I try to find some sense of normalcy, I will also keep trying to find joy and happiness each day, and I will continue to share that. Everything else is in God’s hands. ‘

It was revealed last week that Dale and Clare had given up after five months together. The model made the announcement on social media and was said to ‘surprise’ the Bachelorette.

He wrote: ‘I wanted to share with you everything that Clare and I decided to take separate paths. We appreciate the love and support we have received from so many people, but this is the healthiest decision for both of us right now.

‘We strongly believe in loving leadership and always remain true to yourself – something that our families have taught us and instilled in us throughout our lives. We only hope for the best for each other. ‘

Clare revealed that she was taken aback by the division in a public statement: ‘I was informed of a’ mutual ‘statement at the same time as all of you, so it took me some time to really digest this.’

A source close to the couple told E! News that Clare believes he was unfaithful, allegedly having an affair with New York real estate broker Eleonora Srugo.

He and Eleonora have been in contact since at least 2019, and Clare began to suspect the friendship when they returned to their real lives after they finished filming The Bachelorette.

The source said: ‘Clare has always been skeptical. She never trusted friendship and thought it was obscure … Dale always assured Clare that it was nothing serious.

They explained that ‘several people told Clare that Dale was parading through New York with this girl’.

Clare starred in the 16th season of The Bachelorette, but dropped out in the fourth episode, as she quickly fell in love with Dale and accepted his proposal.

She told presenter Chris Harrison: ‘How he makes me feel is literally, like, rays of sunlight coming out of my heart, like, into the world. And I know it looks so stupid, but I feel it inside me. And whether it took me a day or ten days or two weeks or two years, this man makes me happy. ‘

For the first time in the franchise, Tayshia Adams, 30, took over from Clare for the rest of the season, before becoming engaged to Zac Clark, 37.
