Kaitlyn Bristowe<\/b><\/a><\/span> found long-lasting love with Bachelor Nation<\/span><\/a> member Jason Tartick<\/b><\/span><\/a> in January 2019, and they had been going strong for quite a while \u2014 even getting engaged! But the couple<\/a> sparked breakup rumors in July 2023 after fans noticed that Kaitlyn hadn\u2019t been seen wearing her engagement ring in several social media picture. So, are the couple still together or did their rose lose its petals?\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n In July 2023, Kaitlyn and Jason sparked split rumors<\/a> among fans when they weren\u2019t sharing photos together to social media for several weeks throughout the month. Not only that, but eagle-eyed fans also pointed out that they hadn\u2019t seen Kaitlyn with her engagement ring on for quite some time.<\/p>\n In response to the countless social media comments she received over her relationship status. Kaitlyn shared several cryptic messages<\/a> to Instagram. In one of her notes, Kaitlyn suggested that she was still processing a situation but didn\u2019t specify whether or not it was a breakup from Jason.<\/p>\n \u201cI cannot believe the audacity of people to expect things from me when I haven\u2019t even been able to process things for myself,\u201d she wrote in one message via her Instagram Stories in August 2023, which she took down several minutes later. \u201cHave a f\u2014king heart. You\u2019re scaring me with your comments and demands. I\u2019m almost worried about YOU.\u201d<\/p>\n Less than a week later, the former couple announced their split<\/a> in a joint Instagram statement.<\/p>\n \u201cAfter sharing the news with family and close friends first, and taking the time to properly process it ourselves, we are saddened with heavy hearts to share that we have decided to end our engagement,\u201d Kaitlyn and Jason wrote. \u201cWe are thankful for all of you who gave us the time and space to process this life altering decision as there are many emotions and changes to navigate.\u201d<\/p>\n Kaitlyn and Jason added in their statement, \u201cContinuing our friendship is incredibly important to both of us. We feel grateful to be ending our engagement with love and respect for each other,\u201d the pair wrote. \u201cIt\u2019s heartbreaking and sad to say goodbye, but our care and admiration for one another will never die.\u201d<\/p>\n Kaitlyn seemed to have found The One when she accepted a proposal<\/span><\/a> from Shawn Booth<\/b><\/span><\/a> on season 11 of The Bachelorette<\/i><\/span><\/a> in 2015. While she was head-over-heels for him, he still seemed to be dragging his feet on an actual marriage three years later, and they broke up in November 2018<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \u201cWhen I was with Shawn, I knew what I wanted<\/span><\/a> and I knew what I deserved. I also knew I was happy on my own. I think that\u2019s what made the transition out of the relationship into doing my own thing a little easier \u2014 I felt empowered,\u201d Kaitlyn told Cosmo<\/i><\/span><\/a> in May 2019, adding she was \u201d nervous to date again only because people follow me, and I didn\u2019t know when it was too soon to share something.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Naturally, she did receive some backlash when she went public with Jason two months later in January 2019 \u2060\u2014 mainly from her ex, Shawn. \u201cI think just with her moving on so quick,<\/span><\/a> I just have a tough time understanding why she would be putting this out everywhere or blasting it all over the place knowing that it could hurt<\/span><\/a>,\u201d he said on Ben Higgins<\/b><\/span><\/a> and Ashley Iaconetti<\/b><\/span><\/a>\u2018s \u201cAlmost Famous\u201d podcast at the time, also claiming Kaitlyn started dating Jason almost immediately after they called off their engagement. \u201cI\u2019m going through the mourning process now, whereas she could have been earlier,\u201d he said on a later podcast.<\/span><\/p>\n Not long after, Jason and Kaitlyn went on the Today<\/i> show insisting they only started dating about a month after the split and that the relationship happened organically over time. After meeting on her \u201cOff the Vine\u201d podcast, \u201cWe were friends. A little banter here and there and friendship turned into a relationship,\u201d Jason said.<\/span><\/p>\n The relationship only grew stronger after weathering adversity together. In May 2019, Kaitlyn revealed plans to move to Nashville with the former corporate banker. Just one month later, they adopted their dog Ramen Noodle, and talked about plans to get engaged within the year. \u201cI think I can speak for Kaitlyn, I think Kaitlyn has an expectation [of an engagement] within a year,\u201d Jason said in July 2019. \u201cI don\u2019t have an expectation. I don\u2019t expect anything. I just think on the path that we\u2019re on, it would make sense that this is the next step,\u201d Kaitlyn said.<\/p>\n Jason once again proved his love for Kaitlyn in May 2020 when she released her first single,\u00a0\u201cIf I\u2019m Being Honest,\u201d\u00a0and he showered her with praise. \u201cIt\u2019s a testament to her ability to conquer her fears of failure and pursue uncharted territory with a refreshing perspective,\u201d he told\u00a0Life & Style<\/em> exclusively. Jason also cheered on Kaitlyn as she hoofed her way to the season 29 Mirrorball trophy,\u00a0winning ABC\u2019s\u00a0Dancing With the Stars<\/em><\/a> with propartner,\u00a0Artem Chigvintsev<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n On May 11, 2021, Kaitlyn finally got the proposal she had been waiting for. Jason popped the question<\/span><\/a> during her \u201cOff the Vine\u201d podcast, placing a huge diamond ring on her finger as Kaitlyn squealed with excitement. He\u00a0shared a video<\/span><\/a>\u00a0of the momentous occasion to his TikTok account with the caption, \u201cJust the reaction I was hoping for, engaged to the love of my life,\u00a0@kaitlynbristowe.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\nAre Kaitlyn Bristowe and Jason Tartick Still Together?<\/h2>\n
