According to recent reports, Ben Higgins and Laura Bushnell are heading for splitsville because Higgins still has feelings for Jojo Fletcher, a "bachelorette" and also a runner up. "[He's] realizing he's still very much in love with JoJo, and that those feelings may never go away," revealed an insider.
The source also explained that Bushnell and Higgins realized over a period of time that they are two very different people and that it would be better if they amicably part ways. Just recently, "The Bachelorette" 2016, Jojo Fletcher, confessed in one of the episodes that Higgins was the "truest" form of love she had ever experienced in her life.
Meanwhile, Lauren and Ben signed for a spinoff series, "Ben and Lauren: Happily Ever After," that will follow the couple's lives and also their wedding preparations. This leads to a confusion amongst fans whether the couple is truly breaking up and if this new show their only chance to breathe love back into their failing relationship. At the same time, many consider it as a cover-up to prevent fans from seeing their loveless arrangement. It is important to note that Ben Higgins professed his love for Bushnell as well as Fletcher on "The Bachelor" 2016.
