Yet another relationship stemming from The Bachelor Winter Games has ended.
We’ll give you a moment to recover from the “shock.”
Clare Crawley and Benoit Beauséjour-Savard— who got engaged after appearing on the ‘Bachelor’ spin-off earlier this year– announced on Friday that they are ending their engagement after only a few months.
They each posted a joint statement to their Instagram accounts.
“We understand a lot of you have been asking about our relationship since the show, and we wanted to thank you all for the love and respect as we navigated it in real life off camera,” Clare and Benoit wrote. “We do understand however, having a public engagement on TV kind of changes that. It’s with a heavy heart that we have mutually decided to end our relationship.
“We think the world of each other, and we were both hoping we could make this work. I’m sorry that this may not be what you want to hear, but it’s our truth. Just know there are no negative feelings here, we are simply two people who believed in love, and were open enough to give it a chance. We still care for each other very deeply. (That is why no hate or disrespectful comments will be tolerated about the other.) Please respect our privacy as well, as with the end of any relationship, it is never easy. Thank you for your understanding and love while we have shared our vulnerability with the world. ❤Clare & Benoît”

As ‘Winter Games’ viewers will remember, Clare and Benoit’s relationship on the show ended badly, with Benoit leaving early and Clare continuing to pursue a relationship with Germany’s Christian Rauch, whom she later dumped too. Clare revealed during the season’s ‘Tell All’ episode that Benoit (who hails from Montreal, Canada) contacted her after filming for the show had ended and they reconnected. Benoit proposed to Clare during the taping and she accepted.
Following the announcement of their engagement in February, though, both Clare and Benoit had remained silent in the press and on social media about their relationship.
Last month, ‘The Bachelor Winter Games’ winners Ashley Iaconetti and Canadian Kevin Wendt announced that they had also split.
