“I had to be selfish and put myself first,” the 29-year-old told New Idea.

The former flight attendant said problems with “communication” and “compromise” were big factors in their split.

The Brisbane couple appeared on the first series of the controversial Channel Seven relationship show in 2016. The pair, who were only engaged at the time, experienced tears and fiery clashes as they tried to work through their problems on the show.

Many viewers thought the couple would decide to part ways at the end of the series but they surprised everyone by staying together — and getting married soon after.

While Tallena told New Idea the decision was mutual, she also suggested Brad, 32, struggled with the decision.
