Aww!

In February 2017 the 28-year-old admitted that despite her fame, dating was a bit of a struggle.

“My dating game is slow as of now,” she told Page Six at the time. “I know that I am on TV, and you think that it would be better, but I do not know what I am putting off. I am still single.”

Yaass, love!
