Just like Rhonda and Sharron, another Too Hot to Handle couple Bryce Hirschberg & Nicole O'Brien have broken up. The couple got to know each other after the show ended and eventually started dating. But, due to quarantine and border restrictions, they could not meet each other and finally called it quits.
Just two weeks earlier, the couple made their relationship official by posting intimate pictures on their respective Instagram accounts. Most of the fans were thrilled to see this pair together. The 30-year-old filmmaker even created a portmanteau name, "Nyce." In a media interview, Nicole confessed that she's dating her co-star and eagerly waiting for him to meet her family. Sadly, it seems like all those plans were in vain as the couple (majorly Bryce) has decided not to pursue their relationship anymore.
While Bryce is based in Marina Del Rey, California, his 23-year-old (ex) love interest is frequently traveling between Ireland and London. Amid the coronavirus pandemic and travel restrictions, the long-distance took a toll on their budding relationship. People reports that a rep for Bryce said, "I can confirm that Bryce and Nicole decided mutually to split early last week after months of trying to make a long-distance relationship work." He added, "After the many failed attempts to reunite due to quarantine and border restrictions, we (Bryce and Nicole) decided that moving on and remaining friends would be our best option for the time being."
Bryce feels that "Nicole is so lovely, and if under less unusual circumstances, I'm sure that we could've had an amazing relationship! I wish her the best because she deserves it." Too bad the couple couldn't make it work, and just like SharRhonda, they also gave up on love because of the long-distance. Well, the break up doesn't seem mutual as there is no official statement from Nicole. She seems upset about this separation as she has taken down the picture with Bryce from her Instagram. But, there's still some hope left because the pair have not unfollowed each other yet. According to the reports, Bryce was flirting with other girls last week at his 30th birthday party. It was organized on his boat, and his co-star Harry Jowsey joined him along with Dillon Passage, the husband of Tiger King's Joe Exotic.
A source claims that there were problems between the couple as "Nicole was the only cast member" who did not wish the reality star happy birthday publicly. We don't know yet what exactly happened between the two that they decided to take this drastic step. But, we can speculate that something went down in that birthday bash that Bryce has finally decided not to wait any longer for his Irish-beauty and move on. Still, it's good to see that another couple, Harry and Francesca, have been trying to pull off their long-distance relationship successfully. Let's hope at least they go a long way.
Too Hot to Handle season 1 is available to stream on Netflix.
