• Erich Schwer and Gabby Windey allegedly split up.
• The former “Bachelorette” opened up about why she and Schwer chose to part ways.
• Windey wasn’t sporting her engagement ring while competing in the Disney+ series.

Erich Schwer and Gabby Windey allegedly split up because they “weren’t greatest matches.”

The former “Bachelorette” opened up about why she and Schwer chose to part ways just months after getting engaged on the ABC reality series during Monday’s episode of “Dancing with the Stars.”

She stated to her partner, Val Chmerkovskiy, “The reason our relationship ended was that we weren’t fully in step and in rhythm with each other in our similar goals or just the way we approach life.”

She continued, “I’m just so thankful that my dad and my stepmom embody so many basics and values that I look for in a relationship, like never putting blame,” and she said she wanted to “pour that type of everlasting love” into the couple’s dance for the week.

Windey thought that the ICU nurse, 31, and real estate analyst, 29, “weren’t aligned and weren’t on the same page,” and they ended their relationship earlier this month.

The insider told, “Gabby was hopeful they could give each other space and work it out but eventually determined they didn’t have a future.”

The information was revealed as a result of fans spotting that Windey wasn’t sporting her engagement ring while competing in the Disney+ series.

The reality star dismissed the claims, stating she and Schwer were “supporting each other from afar,” during the time.

She said of Schwer skipping a concert, “I believe life is simply so busy for the both of us right now, so I understand [fans’] worries.” We’re just sort of, you know, pursuing our respective goals and encouraging one another virtually.

Despite the fact that the two are no longer together, Schwer still urges followers to vote for Windey every week on social media in support of his ex-fiance.

Despite their amicable split, the couple encountered problems in paradise.

Early in September, a picture of Schwer in a high school yearbook with blackface makeup and an Afro wig reappeared online.

Less than a month later, an ex-girlfriend claimed he was on the show to advance his profession rather than pursue love, despite his profuse apology for his “insensitive” costume.

Windey supported Schwer despite the criticism from the public, stating the pair needed to “grow as a couple and learn from” the mistakes.
