Matt James, the initial Black star of ‘The Bachelor’, disclosed on a recent Thursday that him and Rachael Kirkconnell have parted ways in their relationship. This news follows almost four years since they first crossed paths during Season 25 of the popular ABC reality dating series.
James posted on Instagram, expressing, “Heavenly Father, grant Rachel and me the fortitude to heal our shattered feelings. Bestow upon us a tranquility concerning our choice to part ways in love, which surpasses human comprehension.
As a lifestyle enthusiast, I must say that Kirkconnell hasn’t openly spoken about the recent breakup yet. Interestingly, her Instagram still showcases some beautiful moments from their relationship. Unfortunately, the specifics of why they parted ways remain undisclosed to the public.
In early 2021, James and Kirkconnell formed their relationship during Season 25 of “The Bachelor”. After the show’s finale, Kirkconnell, the recipient of James’ final rose, found herself in a whirlwind of controversies shortly afterward.
Images emerged showing her at a formal event themed around plantations in 2018. Further controversy arose due to her liking posts containing the Confederate flag on her social media accounts.
In response to criticism, Kirkconnell apologized publicly in February 2021, labeling her previous actions as offensive and racist. This scandal caused James to momentarily break off their partnership.
After facing difficulties, the couple managed to mend their relationship several months ago. In an interview with the Wall Street Journal Magazine conducted in May 2021, James spoke candidly about their rekindled bond. He explained, “It wasn’t fair to walk away when others were striving to unlearn and improve.
As a lifestyle expert, I’d like to express that I’m focusing on fostering mutual understanding with my partner, Kirkconnell. We’re engaged in open discussions about our relationship dynamics and my expectations as a partner, particularly when my partner isn’t of African descent. It’s crucial for them to grasp the unique aspects that come with being Black and integrating those into our shared life.
In the month of February, 2024, James shared with People Magazine his intentions for a unique proposal aimed at Kirkconnell, hinting that their bond was progressing towards an engagement.
Following our heartfelt discussion during the After the Final Rose event, James and I appeared to be on solid ground. Yet, our bond was put under the microscope as a result of the backlash surrounding Kirkconnell’s previous actions in the public eye.
