“I mean, I have a lot of time for him. I think we left things on really good terms. There's not really any drama or anything interesting to say about it, because we both just have a lot of love for each other,” Muller said. The relationship dates back to 2021 according to internet sleuths, and it now sits in the background of her move onto a dating show built around new arrivals, first impressions and fast public scrutiny.
Muller also said she has spent years adjusting to attention. “But I'm sure that having lived that at such a young age has obviously prepared me, as have other things.

I've had very good positive experiences in my past,” she said. “So I think that's also why it's been hard for me, because I'm measuring people to a very high standard from such a young age.”
