I'm just like trying to see her and she's trying to see me.

And it's not that either of us are right or wrong.

We just want to like work through it together.

And every relationship has their problems.

And I think what's cool about ours is like we've gone through a lot of shit, but we've never like given up on each other.

Because we really do love each other.

And I think in this day and age, a lot of people are quick to give up on that and not work through their problems.

And, I mean, after the show, like, to be honest, like, we got home and, like...

We lived together, so we went back to the same house.

And for a period of time, it wasn't good.

And, like, I left for a period of time.

There was a time when, like, it was just a very, like, stagnant relationship.

But, you know, I started going to therapy.

I think I journaled every day for, like, two or three months, like twice a day.

And just got, like...

know worked on myself and she's working on herself and i think over time like putting in that work and also giving her the confidence too to like see me put that work in i think helped her overcome some like insecurities with me and it's kind of molded into you know like a beautiful thing and like i'd say lately like as far as i can remember we've been in like a lot better place

On the island, so much of your frustrations with Cole seemed to be his lack or inability to have a deeper relationship or a deeper conversation.

How has that changed in your relationship?

Yeah.

And it's a beautiful thing because like me and her like really do love each other.
