For over a week now, rumors have been circulating that Clare Crawley from The Bachelorette has been at the center of some drama with her ex Dale Moss and Bachelor In Paradise star Abigail Heringer. After being selected as the lead of The Bachelorette season 16, Clare immediately fell for Dale on night one right after he walked out of the limo. After only two weeks of filming, the 40-yer-old decided that Dale was the only contestant she could see herself with. As a result, Dale proposed, Clare accepted, and the couple left the show early.

Their engagement was aired on TV three months later, but Dale announced that he and Clare had chosen to end their relationship. Even though Clare was caught off guard by the announcement, she decided to move on from the pain Dale had caused. However, after less than a month apart, the couple was spotted together in Florida once again. Shortly after their Florida trip, Clare and Dale were spotted out several times together before officially confirming that they were a couple again. Nonetheless, their reconciliation didn't last too long as they ended things last month.

The drama began after Clare posted on Instagram of herself holding her mother's hand while semi-addressing her break-up with the 32-year-old by calling him out in the caption. What fans later realized is that Clare also tagged Abigail, who was a contestant on Matt James' season of The Bachelor. Her post came hours after an Instagram gossip account shared anonymous information that a recent Bachelor Nation winner hooked up with someone from BIP season 7 who is getting a "good girl edit." An insider close to Us Weekly revealed that Dale and Abigail had hooked up in the past while he and Clare were on a break, long before Abigail started on the spin-off series. At the time, the 26-year-old was under the impression that he and Clare were no longer together.

Clare allegedly found out about the hook-up online the day she posted the photo and tagged Abigail to show everyone she knew what happened, which Noah Erb weighed in on. However, Dale claims that he was never romantic with Abigail. "They met once at flag football in New York City that a bunch of Bachelor people attended. Everyone went to a bar after, they did not sleep together. He's never cheated on Clare," another source told the publication. "They never kissed or had sex. Dale is friends with Abigail." The source also revealed that Dale actually flew to Sacramento last week, where Clare lives, to spend the day with his former fiancé and her mother. The following day, after the drama made waves, Dale made his first public appearance since his and Clare's second public breakup. However, he didn't speak to the media and asked them to please respect his and Clare's privacy.

Even though Dale has denied ever being involved romantically with Abigail, it seems like Clare doesn't believe him. The jury is still out on whether or not the former The Bachelorette star will believe him. Clare already gave Dale a second chance, so it doesn't seem like she is willing to give him another shot - at least not any time soon.
