ormer “Bachelorette” Jenn Tran is addressing talk that she’s dating Sasha Farber, her “Dancing With the Stars” partner.
“I definitely saw that, and I mean, the news is going to say what the news is going to say, and people are going to say what they want to say, but if it’s not coming out of my mouth or Sasha’s mouth, then I would say it’s not out there yet,” Tran told People about the relationship talk about her and Farber.
“So I would say, don’t believe everything you hear. I’m a very private person and trying to figure out how to live a very public life. All of this is still very new to me, and really, I’m just having fun with it all,” she told People in the interview, which was published on December 21.
She acknowledged that she and Farber are in constant contact, telling People, “We talk every day, so we’re definitely on the same page about a lot of different things. We’re just taking life one day at a time.”
US Weekly reported that Tran and Farber are officially dating, although the magazine quoted an anonymous source to back up the report. The pair’s TikTok videos have also increased dating rumors, US Weekly noted.
Tran posted a carousel of photos showing her with Farber to her Instagram page, and one shows him kissing her on the cheek. “The pics you gremlins have been waiting for ” she wrote.
Jenn Trann Said She Didn’t Like Having Her ‘Dating Life so Exposed’
Tran spoke to People about the challenges of a public life.
“You do have to live your life a little bit differently and watch what comes out of your mouth and think about the repercussions of things. You just have to be smart about things. So, it definitely is something that I have to be conscious of, because once you say something, you can’t really take it back,” she told People.
She also opened up about how it felt being the “Bachelorette” and having her heart broken.
“For me, I think just being on ‘Bachelorette,’ just having my dating life so exposed, was honestly not the best thing for me,” she told People. “It was hard to deal with all the critics — it’s hard to have people have a say in your relationships — and it’s not something that I want to subject myself to anytime soon.”
Tran chose Devin Strader as her “Bachelorette” finalist, but they broke up soon after.
Jenn Tran Says Being on ‘Dancing With the Stars’ Was Healing for Her
Tran told People that being on “Dancing With the Stars” was exactly what she needed.
“I don’t even know what I would’ve done if I didn’t get to have the best two months of my life on Dancing With the Stars after The Bachelorette,” she told the magazine. “It was such a low low for me in that moment, and then to go from such a low, low to a really high high — literally something that I’ve always dreamed of doing was be on Dancing with the Stars before I was ever even thrown into The Bachelor world.”
“I really think it came at the most divine time ever,” she gushes. “And it definitely healed me. Dancing in itself healed me, being on the show itself just healed me.”
