It seems Chase is ready to speak out about his relationship with Tayshia, which reportedly ending the day before she left for filming. "I moved some things around … before she ended up deciding to leave [for The Bachelor], because she still wasn’t really sure if she was going to go on the show or not,” he confessed to Us Weekly. "She was still back and forth … she wasn’t sure. As it got closer, I could kind of see changes between us and I could kind of tell that she was leaning toward going. I don’t know all of the exact reasons for that."

He even admitted that the exes are still talking today. “There is an open line of communication," he added. "We’re there for each other if we need to be, but things have changed quite a bit since she’s come back." 

Die-hard fans did their own digging and found even more photos of the couple, which they shared on reddit. While some could understand why Tayshia would seemingly end a relationship to appear on reality television, others think that Tayshia made a big mistake of dumping her model boyfriend for Colton. 

"He’s so much hotter than Colton," one fan commented before another added, "I hope for her sake this dude was a douche because he is damn attractive AF and IDK anyone who would leave this fine piece of heaven to go on a damn TV show." 

Only time will tell if Colton finds out about her secret boyfriend on the show — is Tayshia's secret why Colton jumps the fence? — or during the Women Tell All special.
