Clare Crawley first connected with now-husband Ryan Dawkins the same month her engagement to Dale Moss officially ended.

“This picture was taken exactly one year ago,” the former Bachelorette wrote on September 25, 2022, via Instagram. “He asked me to dinner. I didn’t have an appetite. (Stressed & depressed) But I said yes to tea and a walk. Ended up laughing and smiling more than I did the entire last year combined.”

Crawley had an unconventional journey as the season 16 star of the ABC series, ending her stint after two weeks of filming to get engaged to Moss. The pair initially split in January 2021 but reconciled one month later, Crawley and Moss called it quits for good September 2021 and she found The One in Dawkins shortly thereafter.

One month after going public, Dawkins proposed to Crawley in Las Vegas in October 2022. They wed the following February.
