Here's Why 'Bachelor In Paradise' Couple Kendall Long And Joe Amabile Split
Another one bites the dust. "Bachelor In Paradise" couple Kendall Long and Joe Amabile have called it quits.
"We have decided mutually to go our separate ways. Joe has made the decision to move back to Chicago while Kendall will be remaining in her hometown of Los Angeles," they said in a joint statement to BachelorNation.com.
The statement continued, "Our family and friends have always been an extremely important element to who we are as people. We can’t imagine continuing our lives without them closer, especially when thinking of starting a family of our own one day."
"We both respect each others’ decision and still have a great deal of love for each other. We appreciate all the love and support everyone has given us throughout our relationship," the statement concluded.
Bachelor Nation was introduced to Kendall, 27, as she vied for the heart of Arie Luyendyk on "The Bachelor" in 2018. That same year's season of "The Bachelorette" with Becca Kufrin is when Joe came on the scene. The 33-year-old also referred to as "Grocery Store Joe," won over the hearts of fans despite being eliminated on the first night.
Neither found love on their respective seasons and both ended up on Season 5 of "Bachelor In Paradise." Though they originally called it quits on the show, they got back together after filming. The former couple moved in with each other in April 2019, a few months after Joe competed on "Dancing With The Stars," and they adopted a puppy together in December 2019.
