The Bachelorette’s famous couple, Tayshia Adams and Zac Clark, recently decided to go their separate ways and called off their engagement. Now Tayshia Adams has opened up about how she is dealing with the breakup.
A source had shared that the couple was having some trouble dealing with the fact that their relationship was under the public’s eye, unlike a normal relationship, and both of them felt pressured to navigate the relationship but in different ways. The process and desire to navigate the relationships in two different ways wore on them as individuals, and they started to drift apart in the last few months.
According to reports, Tayshia Adams is doing "amazing and great" post her breakup with Zac Clark as she made an appearance at Footwear News' 35th Annual FN Achievement Awards in New York City on November 30, 2021, looking glamorous and presenting an award during the event. The insider shared, "She lost her thoughts for a moment, apologizing to the crowd, saying, ‘Oh my god you guys, I’m so sorry!'" Tayshia Adams wore a little black dress spiced up with a diamond sapphire ring on the red carpet.
A source close to the TV personality shared that Tayshia Adams understood that the issues between the couple were getting harder and harder to solve with every passing day, and they eventually decided that the relationship was not going to work, but they had a lot of "love for each other," stating that the breakup was hard for both of them.

Digging deeper, it was further revealed that Tayshia Adams was the one who decided to call things off with Zac Clark. Zac was not on board with the decision, as he wanted to talk and make things work for their happiness, but she was firm that things weren’t going to work out. Therefore, she decided to put her foot down after their big fight. The sources have also claimed that one of the reasons why the breakup was initiated was because Zac was "very controlling" and "intense," which just added up to their struggling relationship, especially after Tayshia Adams’ career took off after a successful season of "The Bachelorette."
The source added, "She has asked him to work on that controlling aspect of himself, but it’s only gotten worse than their relationship went on. The more her career took off, the more controlling he would be. He hated not having her around a lot of the time, with her being primarily in Los Angeles or traveling for filming. It was like they lived two separate lives. It seemed like he was jealous of her too, with a lot of new opportunities opening up for her while he stayed in her shadow. He wasn’t secure enough to handle her success. "
Another reason that came up was the distance. It was a known fact that Tayshia Adams’ family is based in California, but Zac Clark would "never leave New York," so the people close to them were aware that it was an issue. The source added, "Practically, it just wasn’t working. They’ve tried putting on a happy face publicly, but those close to them have known something was up for a while".
During Monday’s episode of "The Bachelorette," Kaitlyn Bristowe asked Tayshia Adams about the breakup, to which she replied, "All in all, all I have to say is that I'm heartbroken." But we tried hard, and I still love him very much. And I'm not sure what the future holds. I mean, you know how it is? It's tough". Kaitlyn Bristowe comforted Tayshia Adams and said, "It's really hard, but we're here for you and obviously want you to be happy."
