Lussier opened up about the challenges they faced, particularly due to their long-distance relationship. She explained, “At that point, we were doing long distance, and what was really hard about that was that the foundation was such a mess.” The couple’s lack of a solid foundation and the emotional baggage from their previous experiences made it difficult to rekindle their romance.
Peden also shared his perspective, acknowledging that they had always intended to continue dating even if they didn’t end up getting married. However, real-life circumstances proved to be more challenging than they had anticipated. Peden admitted to “Entertainment Tonight,” “But I think what we didn’t anticipate was the emotional backlash within ourselves, like, ‘Oh s***, that was really tough.’ So we had to take some time for those emotions to settle.”
