Dean Unglert and Lesley Murphy were one of the few happy couples to come out of the first ever Bachelor Winter Games. However, after four months of dating, they shocked fans by deciding to call it quits.

Fans are especially saddened, considering Unglert’s “proposal” to Murphy (with the key to his apartment) on the World Tells All episode of the Winter Games. They seemed like a great match together — so what could have caused them to go their separate ways?

Here’s what we know about their breakup, including the reason Unglert revealed he’s headed to therapy (page 5) and Bachelorette alum Rachel Lindsay’s opinion on their split (page 6).

Apparently, Unglert and Murphy’s relationship was headed toward the end for a few weeks before their breakup. A source told E! News, “It is very recent, but they have been rocky for a few weeks now.”

They added, “Distance and traveling were a factor. They are both going to continue to be friendly and are on good terms, but their romantic relationship has ended.”
