“The Bachelorette's” Britt Nilsson Said She Actually Split from Brady Toops 2 Months Ago

ABC(LOS ANGELES) — News broke earlier this week that Bachelorette star Britt Nilsson split from Brady Toops, but now the 27-year-old Hollywood waitress said they actually split two months ago.

“Everything on paper was perfect,” Nilsson told People. “But we didn’t have that connection I was looking for. That was a hard conclusion.”

As documented by Bachelorette cameras, Toops left the show to pursue a relationship with Nilsson after Kaitlyn Bristowe was selected to be this season’s star. Nilsson stayed in Los Angeles, where Toops lives, with her for two weeks.

“At the beginning, I was like, ‘This is it. This is my guy,” she recalled. “He checked off everything on my checklist.”

However, after a trip to his hometown of Nashville, things didn’t seem so perfect. “He’s more of an introvert and I’m an extrovert,” she explained. “I’m just more loud and outgoing and I’m always on the go. Brady’s a little bit more meditative. We weren’t fed by the same things.”

Added Toops: “What I felt for Britt was true and deep. I’m sad it didn’t work out.”

Although Nilsson said the two split two months ago, everything appeared fine in May. Toops even posted a picture of the two hiking.

The Bachelorette, with Bristowe looking for love, returns Monday at 9 p.m. ET on ABC.
