Dale Moss is speaking out about his breakup with Clare Crawley a few days after she went public for the first time about what happened, claiming his "mutual" split statement...wasn't so mutual.

Despite what Clare may have implied and what others in Bachelor Nation are saying, Dale hopped on Instagram Stories to tell his fans this was not some out-of-the-blue breakup and "didn't come out of nowhere."

"I love Clare and respect Clare enough to let her know how I feel, even if that’s against the expectations of everybody else, and it’s gonna take time," he said. "I wanted nothing more than to make this relationship work, and I put my heart and soul into it each and every day. And I wanted nothing more than to build a healthy relationship."

Clare and Dale had been together for only a few months after getting engaged on The Bachelorette mid-season, resulting in producers replacing Clare with Tayshia Adams (who is now engaged to Zac Clark!).

The fast timing of it all reportedly contributed to Dale and Clare "taking time apart," which spiraled into a full-blown breakup. Since the breakup, cheating rumors about Dale have also emerged. While he hasn't acknowledged them directly, the woman he was accused of cheating with swiftly denied them, calling them "blatant lies."

For more intel straight from the source, check out Dale's full statement about what happened between him and Clare, below:

“I finally feel comfortable getting on here after having some time to process everything that’s gone on. I know a lot y’all have seen me smile on social media and say I don’t seem as hurt or burdened by this. But that’s the farthest thing—like, this time sucked. Thank God I have the friends and the family that I have, because they’ve literally had to carry me through the last two-plus weeks.

Building a relationship, in general, is tough, especially when you’re doing it in the public eye. People will spread lies or always want to point the finger but the fact of the matter is there’s no one person to blame in this situation. Like every relationship, we’ve had our ups and downs and you know, have gone through our things but you know the statements that came out—like, this didn’t come out of nowhere.

I love Clare and respect Clare enough to let her know how I feel, even if that’s against the expectations of everybody else, and it’s gonna take time. I wanted nothing more than to make this relationship work, and I put my heart and soul into it each and every day. And I wanted nothing more than to build a healthy relationship.

While this is going to be difficult, what you’ll see for me is trying to practice what I preach and continue to put my best foot forward each and every day.”
