Devin Strader Says He “F-ked Up” After Sharing Jenn Tran’s Messages

As a seasoned observer of Bachelor Nation, I must say that each love story unfolds uniquely, much like the petals of a rose revealing their true colors over time.

Devin Strader is walking back his actions.

A short time following the former contestant on The Bachelorette posting a video detailing his perspective on his breakup with Jenn Tran (which featured numerous screenshots of their personal text messages), the 28-year-old removed and reposted a censored version, expressing regret for the initial post that disclosed details from a confidential conversation.

Apologetically, I wish to express my sincerest regrets for unintentionally disclosing sensitive details. It was never my intent; instead, I aimed to share my personal viewpoint on our relationship.

He stated, “There’s no benefit for me if that text chat is revealed. I assure you, it was an error.

Furthermore, acknowledging his attempt to conceal confidential and personal details, he candidly confessed, “I inadvertently overlooked this instance.

Devin also acknowledged he understands his apology can only go so far.

He went on saying, ‘I can’t think of any words to improve the situation, but let me assure you that my intention wasn’t to display that text. I sincerely ask for your forgiveness.’

Following the upload of the revised, edited copy of his initial 13-minute post, he explained the reason behind this update and then commented, “From now on, I aim to own up to my actions and move forward. Thank you.

In the video, Devin tackled several points raised by Jenn during the intense finale episode of _After The Final Rose_, such as him ending their relationship over a brief fifteen-minute phone conversation.

He made it clear to his followers that he had no intention of criticizing Jenn or attacking her in any way. Instead, his goal was simply to demonstrate that the situation was mutual, and he believed that both parties should share responsibility for their actions.

He concluded by saying to Jenn, “I truly apologize from the depths of my heart for how things unfolded. It was never my intention to cause you pain, and I deeply regret any harm I’ve inflicted on you.

Devin’s video emerged during a surge of criticism directed towards him after the emotional conclusion of The Bachelorette’s season, where Jenn was seen crying as she watched their proposal on television.

During our discussion, Devin asserted that he had attempted an in-person meeting with Jenn, but she declined because she was aware of what was imminent.

“I didn’t really know what else to do,” he said. “She kind of forced my hand.”

Apart from what Jenn asserted, he distanced himself promptly following the pair’s departure from filming in Hawaii, contrary to this. However, it wasn’t until several weeks after their split that he made an effort to detach, as part of his journey towards a new life.

He acknowledged it was difficult to admit, but he required it for his own contentment, he stated. Moreover, he emphasized, a relationship involves not just one person, but two individuals are participating.

Indeed, it appeared that Devin’s article centered around this idea – his relationship was reciprocal, much like a two-lane road. This is why he mentioned sharing numerous conversations between them.

He made it clear to his followers that he doesn’t intend to criticize Jenn or attack her in any manner. Instead, his aim is simply to illustrate that the situation involved mutual participation from both parties, and he believes that they both share responsibility for what happened.

At last, he said, “Jenn, let me express my deep regret for how things unfolded. I never intended to cause you pain, and I am truly sorry for any distress I may have brought upon you.

Devin’s video appeared during a surge of criticism directed at him after the emotionally charged finale of “The Bachelorette,” where Jenn was seen crying as she watched their proposal on television.

However, she recently stated that she had attempted to contact Devin following the series’ intense finale, expressing her hopes for his well-being.

She shared on Kaitlyn Bristowe’s Off the Vine podcast on September 10 that she started receiving messages from women which upset her greatly, leading to her decision to end things. Since then, they haven’t communicated at all.

As a devoted admirer, I’m here to share that not only Devin and Jenn experienced a dramatic parting. Let’s delve deeper into what became of other beloved pairs from the Bachelor Nation. Stay tuned!

In July 2023, the Texas-based duo made an even bigger step in their journey, with Kaity sharing on Instagram, “Officially roommates.”

The relationship between pilot Rachel and contractor Tino Franco hit a snag when he was caught kissing another woman during their 2022 season broadcast. In an interview on “The Viall Files,” Tino admitted, “I wholeheartedly regret my actions. It was wrong, unfair to Rachel, and I still carry the guilt daily. I am deeply ashamed of what I did and if I could do it over again, I would change it a million times.

On the sixth season of “Bachelor in Paradise”, television’s initial same-sex couple became engaged, however, they revealed their separation in October 2019, which coincided with Halloween.

As a dedicated admirer, I’d rephrase it like this: “Love and concern have been the cornerstones of our bond from day one. Our main focus has always been ensuring our mutual wellbeing. After much contemplation, filled with love for each other, we’ve chosen to take a break from our relationship. We yearn for what’s best in the long term, and at this moment, that means growing separately.

As an ardent fan, I can’t help but share my excitement about Serena Pitt and Joe Amabile! These two lovebirds, who made their mark on Matt James’ season and Bachelorette Becca Kufrin’s journey respectively, decided to take a sneak peek at married life. In September 2023, they’ll exchange vows officially, but before that, they opted for a little practice run – tying the knot at City Hall, not too far from their New York City abode, about a year after leaving the enchanting paradise of Bachelor in Paradise.

Kenny Braasch, a boy band manager, declared his profound love for Mari Pepin by saying, “Mari, I am absolutely crazy about you,” as he placed a Neil Lane diamond ring on her finger during the 2021 finale of Paradise. “I truly can’t imagine my life without you,” he added. After their elimination by Tayshia Adams in week five, they eventually got married in an oceanfront ceremony with 65 guests in Puerto Rico in November 2023.

Speaking to TopMob News, she expressed hope that others might feel encouraged to break the rules, saying “I hope that other people can now feel empowered and say it’s okay to bend the rules.” Thomas reciprocated the sentiment in October of the same year. In September 2023, they welcomed their first child, a son named Benson.

Lowering himself onto a single knee, Blake expressed to Katie, “You are worthy of the entire world, and I am eager to assist and always be by your side from now on.

On New Year’s Eve in 2020, Peter announced that their nine-month relationship had ended.

In a series of heartfelt posts on Instagram, I shared that although our bond held countless enchanting moments, ultimately, it was not meant to last. However, let me assure you all, Kelley remains a woman whom I carry a profound affection for, forever and always.

She said, “All along, I just wanted someone to offer their entire affection as I was doing the same for them. And unfortunately, you ended my first engagement.” She conveyed her disappointment, adding, “You took that away from me. That’s what we shared – trust. You asked me to be patient with you and have faith in you.

It was a dream come true.” Primarily, the content creator (who had feelings for Bachelor Colton Underwood prior to joining the cast in Mexico in 2019) is thrilled to now officially refer to tech entrepreneur (from Hannah Brown’s season) as her husband. “We’re definitely committed to each other for the long term,” she expressed about their plans to build a life together in San Diego. “Our families are very close and involved, which makes our relationship feel like a marriage in many ways.
