AceShowbiz - Chris Soules has finally broken his silence on circulating rumors that he and his fiancee Whitney Bischoff called off their engagement. Speaking to Us Weekly on Monday, May 4, the former star of "The Bachelor" denied the split rumors, saying, "We're together and we're in love and we're handling this like two adults."
Chris explained, "[Whitney]'s got a life too and she's got a job, and she's got a career and she's doing that. She's got to do what makes her happy and I'm focused on ['Dancing with the Stars'] and having a great time and she's happy for me. We're making the best of a really cool situation that we're both a part of that's not going to last much longer...We're just normal people living a kind of abnormal life for a couple more weeks."
Whitney wasn't present during Chris' "Dancing with the Stars" performance with Witney Carson on Monday night, and it's because she was with her family for the anniversary of her mother's passing. "I miss [Whitney]," Chris shared, "But I think it's healthy for her to be away - [tonight] she's with family, it's actually the anniversary of her mom's death. She's my number one fan. So I know she's there for me and when all of this is over it'll be nice to just be together."
When asked about wedding plans, Chris said fame and celebrity life in Hollywood were surreal to him. "This is not real life. L.A. isn't real life for me. Arlington is and Chicago - that's real life and we want to take that step and then we'll make those plans," he explained.
