“I couldn’t face to tell them ‘guys it lasted 86 days’,”

Sabrina explains: “For the first part of this year I didn’t really speak to anyone, I went and did some solo traveling, tried to heal my heart and just really practiced gratitude and look for good…”

The reality TV star adds how she feels there is a lot to be thankful for: “If it wasn’t for the show, I wouldn’t of quit my job, I wouldn’t of started my own business… I’m my own boss, I can travel as much as I want to. I thought I was writing a love story but really I was writing my own story.”
