Former Bachelorette star Kaitlyn Bristowe is looking back at on her past relationship with ex-fiancé Shawn Booth. The reality star, 35, reflected on their three-year engagement, noting that she was "madly in love" with the fitness trainer, 33.

“I thought that was my person, and I would have done anything to try to stay with him," Bristowe recalled on the Wednesday, January 27, episode of the “Reality Life with Kate Casey” podcast. She went on to tell host Kate Casey that before their split she thinks Booth "felt the pressure to stay together."

"People were always chiming in and kept talking about your relationship and think they know your relationship. I found that hard to keep up with because people did not know we were struggling on the other side," the "Off the Vine" podcast host explained.
