Bachelor In Paradise: Alex Nation admits 'I dumped Richie over text!'

BRUTAL! - by Milly Haddrick
  • 09 Apr 2019

This season of Bachelor In Paradise is promising one hell of a showdown between exes Alex Nation and Richie Strahan, and now the woman who won Richie's season of The Bachelor Australia has revealed why the pair ended on such a sour note. 

Speaking with Kyle and Jackie O on KIIS FM this morning, the mum-of-one admitted that she dumped her ex via text. 

Oh dear. 

WATCH! The AWKWARD moment Bachelor in Paradise's Alex Nation admits she dumped Richie over text!

"Alex when do we see you and Richie doing your longest unedited fight in reality TV history", host Jackie asked the blonde beauty. 

"I can't actually tell you when," Alex replied. 

"Is it soon", co-host Kyle prompted. 

"It's soon," Alex promised.

"Did you guys not break up on good terms?", asks Jackie. 

Here you can see Alex dance around the answer before finally revealing, "I dumped him over text, so like that's not probably the best." 

Probably not Alex...

Alex continued by explaining her mindset at the time: "I think it was just the nature of the situation and I just shut down, and that's how I dealt with it." 

If you need a reminder of the VERY tense argument between Alex and Richie, watch the Bachelor In Paradise trailer here!
