AceShowbiz - Another "Bachelor" couple bites the dust. Amanda Stanton and Robby Hayes called it quits. "Robby and I are not together," so the 27-year-old mother of two revealed to Us Weekly. "I'm not really sure how Robby's handled the situation."
Stanton is a contestant from Ben Higgins' season ("The Bachelor" season 20) while 28-year-old Hayes is a former suitor of JoJo Fletcher ("The Bachelorette" season 12). They were romantically linked on the current season of "Bachelor in Paradise". In the latest episode, their relationship got rocky. Some fellow contestants even believed Hayes may have cheated.
Besides his alleged infidelity, Amanda seemingly took into account Hayes' friendship with her former fiance Josh Murray. "I wasn't interested in him at all and I was off limits to him because he's friends with Josh," she explained. "We just kind of talked a little bit during the break and we just kind of enjoyed talking to each other I think. And then we just started hanging out more and more and then it just started turning into something."
In the previous installment of "Bachelor in Paradise", Stanton was engaged to 33-year-old Murray, a contestant from Andi Dorfman's season ("The Bachelorette" season 10). Their relationship didn't last long. They broke up in December after an alleged fight at KIIS FM's Jingle Ball.
Now Stanton is focusing on her two kids, Kinsley and Charlie, from her previous marriage to Nick Buonfiglio. "What people don't realize I think is, so my ex Nick, the girls' dad, and I have always been pretty cordial. I mean, we've had our moments where we haven't been. But really for the most part I can say, since we split up almost four years ago, we've been pretty good about still being able to be around each other occasionally," she said. "I think that's really good and it makes me really happy that we can do that."
