Clare Crawley has held forth on her 'messy' breakup with her fiance Dale Moss whom she got together with last year through The Bachelorette.
The 40-year-old met him as the oldest-ever Bachelorette - and then sensationally left the show early because she had already decided he was the one.
However after their second split last month Clare found herself in tears on the Whine Down podcast this week, confessing she 'never wanted to walk away from' him.
Side by side: Clare Crawley has held forth on her 'messy' breakup with her fiance Dale Moss whom she got together with last year through The Bachelorette
She was speaking to podcast host Jana Kramer of One Tree Hill fame who has recently herself just undergone her third divorce.
