PEOPLEbroke the news of Bellino’s relationship with Janssen, 61, earlier this month. The duo met in November through mutual friends at Orange County eateryThe Quiet Woman.
At the time, a source indicated that they weren’t “using labels like boyfriend or girlfriend, but they’ve been spending a lot of time together and have been enjoying learning about each other.”

“All I can do is repeat in my head what he said to me while we were filming,” Beador said, reflecting on what led to the split. “We were in a great place. But seven days later, when the cameras were down, it was a completely different story. He told me he was done with the relationship. And to hear what he said to me then was absolutely devastating.”
