A source who knew Tinsley and Scott told People: “This was not mutual, she was blindsided. She’s on the floor heartbroken and devastated.
“She left everything for him because she didn’t think he’d ever call off the engagement.
“She trusted him that this time was going to be different.”
Scott told People of the breakup: “After fourteen months of engagement, Tinsley and I have ended our relationship, and we have been living independently for the last few months.
“This was an incredibly difficult decision, but it is one that I believe is best for both of us. I will always care about Tinsley and I sincerely wish her happiness and success in all that she does in the future.”
“While I understand this news will be of interest to many, I ask for privacy and understanding during this time as I continue to work on recovering emotionally from the end of our relationship.”
Tinsley did not respond to People’s request for comment.
This past May, Tinsley said on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen quarantining with Scott was “exactly what we needed.”
“Our relationship is actually so much better. I just wanted to be at home with him and just have normal [life].
“And it’s been obviously beyond normal, the fact that I’m cooking and cleaning, but I’ve really impressed him which is so fun. It’s been really good.”
Scott and Tinsley got engaged in November 2019 in Chicago.
This past June saw Tinsley leave New York City and RHONY to move to Chicago to be with Scott.
Tinsley told Leah McSweeney on an episode she was serious about knowing “this is it” with her then-boyfriend.
She said: “Is there physically like a ring or something right now? No. Is that definitely happening, are we getting married? I just know it.”
