Tinsley Mortimer’s walk down the corridor was interrupted.
The 45-year-old former “The Real Housewives of New York” star and CouponCabin founder Scott Kluth ended their engagement, People reported on Thursday.
Kluth, 40, told the publication in a statement: “After 14 months of engagement, Tinsley and I have ended our relationship and lived independently in the past few months. This was an incredibly difficult decision, but it is a decision that I believe is the best for both of us. I will always care about Tinsley and sincerely wish him happiness and success in everything she does in the future. “
“Although I know that this news will be of interest to many, I ask for privacy and understanding during this period, while continuing to work on emotional recovery from the end of our relationship,” he concluded.

Mortimer left the Bravo series and moved to Chicago to be with Kluth after accepting his proposal. His initial plans for marriage were hampered by the coronavirus pandemic.
RHONY fans will remember that Mortimer had been planning his wedding for some time. Her mother, Dabney Mercer, took her to buy a wedding dress during the program, which led to a scene of the couple crying over Mortimer’s frozen eggs while Mortimer tried on a dress.
