Tayshia Adams recently sat down with US Weekly to promote her partnership with World Vision. While there, the 37-year-old addressed her breakup with Zac Clark, who proposed to Adams on "The Bachelorette," and why she has been keeping the details private.

“Him and I both know the truth and where we stand, and I’ve actually never said anything in the media about our relationship except for [that] we’re no longer together,” she told the magazine. “And I know people might think otherwise, but that’s literally the only statement we’ve ever given out. I think that’s just something about maturity and how we decided to proceed and yeah, at the end of the day, no one else needs to know anything else.”

Zac Clark was Tayshia's final man on her season of "The Bachelorette," to which she told him at the finale, “There was one point in my life when I thought I would never get married, because of all the pain and the heartbreak I had been through, and I hit absolute rock bottom. And I know that I told you that I love you, but … it’s more than that."

"It’s this wild, wild love that I have tried to come up with so many reasons to not believe, and you have truly just made me believe there doesn’t need to be flaws, and that I deserve a love with a man that won’t run away. You’ve truly woken up my heart, and yes, it is real. I feel it too," she concluded before Clark asked her to marry him.

The couple announced their split in November 2021.

The 32-year-old went on to explain what she learned from her experience as being The Bachelorette.

“My biggest lesson [was] just to remain true to me and I feel like I did that,” she said. “I’m really proud of that and I feel like some people get caught up in the mix of everything and I think the best way — the best practice — is just to be you. And I think with that, all of these things have come and it just kind of finds you when you’re true to yourself. So I think that’s my biggest lesson is just to continue to remain grounded and be very thankful for everything.”
