So what happened?

The bottom line is they just couldn’t make it work. Tayshia spoke about it once on Instagram nearly two years ago. She said, “My divorced used to be something I was ashamed of.” Tayshia continued, “Because to me it represented, not only to myself but to everyone that knew me, that I had failed at marriage, something I value so highly. It made me question my worth and completely dimmed the light inside of me that used to shine so brightly.”

She went on to say, “It’s been a rough journey to pick up the pieces and rebuild my idea of the life I want, but I will tell you this: I would not be able to be the strong, independent and smiling woman I am today without my faith or the support of my close family and friends that have supported me unconditionally.”

During a podcast with Nick Viall, Tayshia said she never wanted to get divorced. She was in it for the long haul. Tayshia admitted she knows you can’t make someone want to be married to you. Sometimes even with hard work, a marriage just doesn’t work out.

Now, Tayshia is getting another chance at love. Everyone is wondering how her part of the season will turn out. Was she The Bachelorette long enough to find love? Stay tuned to find out.

The Bachelorette premieres October 13 on ABC.
