Kendall Long explained — while appearing on an episode of the "Almost Famous" podcast — why it would be so tough to watch her ex-boyfriend fall in love again. "It would be so hard. I would not want to watch him fall in love with someone else. That would suck so much," she said (via Us Weekly). Long went on to add that what would make watching Joe Amabile on Bachelor in Paradise so challenging is that she still has strong feelings for him.
"I still have a tremendous amount of love for him. I would just be signing up for another heartbreak," she said. Cue the tears.
The pair released a neutral statement announcing their breakup in January 2020 that appeared to cite their separate homes of origin as the primary reason for the split. "We have decided mutually to go our separate ways. Joe has made the decision to move back to Chicago while Kendall will be remaining in her hometown of Los Angeles," the statement read, via Us Weekly. The couple went on to say that their individual friends and family were both huge components of their lives, and that they could not see themselves "continuing [their] lives without them closer." Will Long and Amabile reconcile? Will Amabile find new love in paradise? Time will tell.
