Bachelor Nation’s Jason Tartick and Kat Stickler Break Up

As a seasoned observer of Bachelor Nation’s romantic escapades, I must say, it’s fascinating to see how these former contestants navigate their post-reality TV lives. From the heartwarming tales of Dean Unglert and Caelynn Miller-Keyes, who found love again after their stint in Paradise, to the fairy tale wedding of Dylan Barbour and Hannah Godwin in France, it’s clear that some connections made on these shows can stand the test of time.


It’s over between The Bachelorette alum Jason Tartick and Kat Stickler.

The two announced Oct. 12 that they had broken up, several months after they began dating.

Jason posted on his Instagram Stories, “I regretfully have to tell you that Kat and I are no longer a couple. My affection knows no bounds, and I dive headfirst into love. However, life isn’t always predictable. In this case, our relationship didn’t work out as planned.

The 35-year-old went on to say, “Kat has filled my life with joy and radiance, revealing aspects of myself I didn’t know were there. I’ll always be thankful for her, as well as dear MK.

Kat shares daughter Mary-Katherine, nicknamed MK, with ex-husband Mike Stickler.

As I bring this chapter to a friendly close, I eagerly look forward to the beginning of another. Wishing her all the joy life has to offer, I equally focus on nurturing my own happiness too.

On her own Instagram Stories, Kat addressed the breakup in a video.

Speaking about her personal matters, the influencer stated, “Given the consecutive hurricanes, Helene in North Carolina and Milton in Florida, it didn’t seem appropriate to discuss my private life. However, many of you have been curious enough to ask, so yes, Jason and I have parted ways.

The 29-year-old echoed Jason when she said their split was “amicable.”

She stated, “It simply didn’t succeed,” but emphasized that love was never squandered. Sometimes, it can seem as if love is thrown away when a romance concludes, but in truth, love is never wasted.

Jason, who contended for Becca Kufrin’s final rose during season 14 of ‘The Bachelorette’ in 2018, started being linked romantically with Kat as early as April. They confirmed their relationship on Instagram in June by posting pictures showing him embracing her and planting a kiss on her cheek. She labeled the photos, “My heart is content.

Jason and Kat started hanging out together not long after his breakup with Kaitlyn Bristowe, who was the star of The Bachelorette season 11, around a year ago following a four-year relationship.

Back in September, I found myself starstruck on the red carpet of the 2024 People’s Choice Country Awards. Guess who I bumped into? None other than those two former fiancés of mine! The excitement was palpable as we reminisced about old times.

Kaitlyn shared with TopMob News co-host Keltie Knight at the event that this isn’t their first encounter in the same room, so it feels quite normal now instead of awkward. She added that while her heart might have been pounding six months ago, they are now just relaxing together.

In his current stage of life, he expressed, “Now, what matters most to me is everyone’s happiness. I find myself content at the moment.

Though that meant her planned engagement gown remained packed, “I just had to do what I felt was right,” she said. “Love is all about taking risk.”

Two days after their December 2023 finale aired, she announced on her Instagram Stories that their relationship had “dissolved due to multiple infidelities.” Aven later issued an apology to Kylee, writing, “I have made major mistakes in the relationship and hurt someone who was very close to me.”

After much thought and with hearts heavy yet filled with love, we’ve chosen to take a break from our relationship. This difficult decision is aimed at what’s best for both of us in the long run. For now, it means growing independently, a step we believe is crucial for our future well-being.
