Amanda Stanton has had a rough time of things lately, but she’s coming out strong. Read on for her classy comments about her recent breakup.
Amanda Stanton is having quite the month. In case you missed it, she recently made headlines across the nation after confirming that a hacker had stolen nude photos from her doctor’s office and was attempting to blackmail her with their release. It was a terrible event and the timing was even worse than we thought, as Amanda and her boyfriend Bobby Jacobs have recently confirmed their split.
Amanda and Jacob shared a large home in Laguna Beach. Amanda has confirmed that she and her daughters will continue to live there post-break up.
So how is this Bachelor alum doing in the wake of such a dramatic month? She’s actually handling things with a lot of class. Amanda Stanton took to Instagram to clear the air about the split and comment on her future.
While there don’t seem to be too many ill feelings floating between them, Amanda notes that Bobby did “completely blindside” her.
"Before I get into it, Bobby didn’t do anything wrong, so don’t go hating on him for it. Yes, I was surprised, but it’s OK."
Amanda went on to comment that she had truly thought they were going to get engaged or married. She even went on to call him her best friend at the time.
Is there a chance that Bachelor Nation could see these two reuniting? Well, Amanda also addressed couples that break up and get back together, so don’t get your hopes up.
"I just don’t think it works out. That’s not something that’s going to happen, and that’s OK."
Out here in Bachelor Nation we’re no strangers to big breakups. After all, we love a show that shows men and women being dumped nearly every week. We’ve seen it all, from the mutual partings to big dramatic splits. And Amanda Stanton? She handled this breakup really, really well. Her comments about Bobby Jacobs seem level-headed and responsible. Honestly, we can’t believe she’s holding it together this well after the absolutely insane month that she’s had.
So what’s next for Amanda? Who knows, maybe The Bachelor isn’t done with her yet and we’ll see her picking things up organically with another former contestant. If it can happen with Jason Tartick and Kaitlyn Bristowe, it can happen for anyone!
