Rachael Kirkconnell is speaking out following her shocking split from Matt James. The 28-year-old appeared on the Jan. 28 episode of Alex Cooper’s “Call Her Daddy,” where she tearfully revealed for the first time why he broke up with her. She also emotionally admitted that leading up to the split, they were talking about marriage. Then when Matt abruptly called things off, she said she was blindsided. She also recalls being shocked when she saw his Instagram post announcing their spilt on Jan. 16 at the airport, hours after they broke up. Matt didn’t just surprise Rachael with the post, his cryptic message alarmed fans too, with some pointing out it was interesting he used a picture of Matt and Rachel’s first time meeting each other on “The Bachelor” because the two worked hard to distance themselves from the franchise, which Rachael weighed in on that while talking Alex. Rachael also admitted she’s talked to Matt since the split and revealed if she’d get back together with him.
