Adrienne Bailon Calls Off Engagement With Longtime Boyfriend Lenny Santiago
Adrienne Bailon is back on the market. Bailon revealed Thursday on her talk show ‘The Real’ that she called off her seven-month engagement to Roc Nation executive Lenny Santiago. She confessed to everyone that kept asking her and wondering if she was still engaged because she didn’t have on her ring.
“Through the summer, I went on my little Eat Pray Love journey and it was a time for me to come to terms with my own truth and my honesty and I am not engaged anymore, and we’re in a good place.”
“I am, of course, sad that things didn’t go as we planned, but we still remain close friends. Six years is a long time to be together, but we had to make the decision to go with our hearts and not be embarrassed or afraid of change,” she told US Weekly. “He absolutely helped make me a better person and I will forever cherish the time we shared together.”
“Right now I am taking time for myself and I’m glad to be back at work with my favorite ladies and the incredible crew of The Real,” Adrienne continued. “Life lessons are hard but I’m grateful that I have a platform to share my journey and hopefully encourage, inspire, or just let women know they are not alone and to never give up on finding love. I still believe. I feel so blessed and excited for the new season of The Real and I truly appreciate the support from everyone!
Lenny Santiago proposed to Adrienne back in February. She was overly excited, “I am so excited to be marrying my best friend,” she said. “There’s nothing like having someone that makes you laugh, that encourages you, and motivates you… He’s been that great motivation behind everything I do.”
We wish both of them the best!
