In an Instagram story posted on Wednesday, Espinal announced the breakup to her \u201cpapayas,\u201d writing, \u201cBryan and I are no longer together. After leaving the villa, it became very clear that we were on two different journeys.

Arenales admitted he \u201chad a lapse in judgment\u201d after a video of him speaking to other women circulated on TikTok. While the couple seem to have hashed that particular incident out, we still don\u2019t know what led to their ultimate breakup \u2014 or when exactly it happened.
