Taylor Hale and Joseph Abdin, who met while competing on Big Brother in summer 2022, have decided to amicably split after about six months of dating.The former Miss Michigan, 28, who won season 24 of the long-running reality TV series, decided to end the relationship after careful thought and consideration, Us Weekly has exclusively learned.Ultimately, it came down to a few factors, distance being one of them.

Hale, who once considered Florida as a place to settle down, slowly realized that she couldn’t see herself living there, while Abdin, 25, is tied to his home state of Florida for personal and professional reasons.The couple, who fans affectionately refer to as “Jaylor,” officially called it quits right before a pre-planned a cruise getaway but still decided to go together since they plan to remain friends and wanted the opportunity to decompress.“Joseph and I have made the decision to love and support one another as best friends going forward,” Hale wrote in a statement on Instagram on Wednesday, April 19, which Abdin re-posted. “We recognize what’s best for both of our futures at this time.

This decision was made with lots of love, care and acknowledgment of how special our relationship is to the both of us.”She continued, “We want to thank you for the love and support you’ve shown us while we navigated our relationship from friends, to lovers, and now back to friends.

We’ve seen every message about how watching an interracial relationship form impacted you, in spite of the ongoing harassment, and we’re touched by how our love has inspired you.”The beauty queen and attorney had faced ongoing harassment online for months, even requiring law enforcement officials and network involvement.
