We broke up,” Johnny explained. “I want to say I’m good, but it really does break my heart that she’s not sitting next to me as my fiancé right now. In that timeframe of stepping out of filming to that one month of being engaged, I started to feel not good enough for her, and then we started arguing…and rumors started surfacing. And I really wanted to trust her, but I don’t know.”
