Lauren Bushell’s Comfort Jojo Fletcher

Lauren’s recent split from Ben Higgins after getting engaged at the end of The Bachelor‘s 21st season, she is moving on and being ready to carry on with her life and to help that she had her friend JoJo Fletcher.

“She reached out, which was really sweet,” Bushnell, 27, told Us Weekly exclusively of Fletcher, who was Higgins’ runner-up on season 20 of the Bachelor. “Her and I talked before and I shared that we were having struggles. She texted me the day that the news or whatever broke just to check in, which I thought was really nice. We talked a little bit.”

During the near event of Finale on Bachelor, Ben Higgins had told both his ex-fiance and ex-girlfriend before he proposed to Bushnell that he loved them both separately before. Throughout her relationship with Higgins, Bushnell struggled to move past that fact.

“I did carry some resentment toward him, not with JoJo,” she told Us in October 2016. “I had such a hard time trying to understand and put myself in his shoes, and finally was like, ‘I will never understand. I will never be the Bachelor.’”

Bushnell notes that the former couple has been open about their issues to friends and fans alike. “I don’t think Ben and I, either of us was really private,” she told Us at SodaStream’s Taste Test event for National Hydration Day on Thursday, June 22. “I mean, on our TV show, we talked about going to couples counseling. We were never hush hush about it.”
Although Lauren is single, she is not looking for anyone right now as she is appreciating her single life.“I’m not looking to force anything,” she explains. “I think I really really wanted to settle down. I’m just taking the mindset that I’m going to take it day by day.”.

More about them

The former flight attendant also shared that even if she were to find romance in her life she would be careful and take a very different approach than her relationship with Higgins.

“Even if something does come, I really want to take things slow,” she says. “Because obviously on the Bachelor, things don’t move slow.”
One place she won’t be finding love: Bachelor in Paradise. “I don’t know how I’ll feel in a year or six months from now, but right now, today, I’m not ready for that,” she tells Us of the ABC series’ spinoff show. “Part of the last chapter of my life was so reality TV focused and it stressed me out. I can’t think like that because I’m just trying to move forward and kind of close that chapter if you will.”
