The blonde described her time on the show as ‘an incredibly exciting, rewarding, challenging, and emotional journey.’

‘Matt showed me what it was like to be respected in a relationship and I am so thankful for that. However, it saddens me to say that we are no longer together,’ she wrote. 

She added: ‘I wish him nothing but the best. I’m sorry to those that were invested in our relationship. Please remember to be kind online as you don’t know what is going on behind the screen. All my love.’

She also appeared to be quite upset as she took to her Instagram to story to tell her friends and fans not to send articles of the split, as it ‘won’t help.’

Meanwhile former Bachelor star Rachael Arahill hinted that Chelsie was blindsided by the split on Instagram on Sunday.

When a follower said they wanted to ‘know why’, Rachael responded with ‘so does Chelsie.’
