‘Bachelorette’ alum Greg Grippo confirms ‘really sad’ Victoria Fuller breakup

Bachelor Nation stars Greg Grippo and Victoria Fuller are officially dunzo.

Grippo confirmed Page Six’s exclusive report that he and Fuller have broken up after one year of dating.

“It’s sad, to be honest with you. It’s really sad,” the former “Bachelorette” contestant said in Monday’s episode of Jason Tartick’s “Trading Secrets” podcast.

“I just want to respect her during this time and not go into detail on anything,” he continued, “but we’ve definitely ended things.”

Grippo shared that he does not “have anything bad to say” about the “Bachelorette” alum, adding, “She’s amazing, and I know that she’s going to continue to do amazing things.”

He did, however, acknowledge that splitting in the public eye “sucks even more” than in private.

Nonetheless, the New Jersey native assured fans that he is “really happy about and excited for” a new chapter, saying he feels “the lightest” he has in a “long” time.

Grippo’s comments come just five days after multiple sources told us that he and Fuller had quietly called it quits “months ago.”

The former couple, both 30, also recently unfollowed each other on Instagram, though they still have photos together on their respective feeds.

Shortly after the betrothed pair separated, Fuller went public with her relationship with Grippo, which raised eyebrows among Bachelor Nation.

“I had my suspicions, and I kind of thought that there was always something going on,” DePhillipo, 27, later told Us Weekly. “And then it just makes you think, ‘When did it start?'”

Grippo competed on Katie Thurston’s season of “The Bachelorette” in 2020.
