In an interview with Wetpaint, the reality stars shared that they developed a special friendship with Bischoff. They mentioned that she has also been very open about what happened to her and Soules after the finale, which is why they were not surprised when they found out that the two eventually decided to part ways.

Despite being close friends with Bischoff and other "The Bachelor" season 19 contestants, the two shared that they have not stayed in touch with Soules at all. Roper shared that she has not spoken to him since the "Women Tell All" episode. Iaconetti, on the other hand, said that Soules has been following her on Twitter, which she finds weird given that they lost touch as well.

The publication pointed out that it was natural for Iaconetti and Roper to not want to hang out with Soules after the ABC series is over. After all, he chose to dump them on national television.

"The Bachelor" season 19 couple released an official statement in May, confirming the end of their engagement. The couple claimed that they remain friends and have nothing but respect and admiration for one another. They also thanked their fans for supporting their journey throughout the ABC series.
