‘Bachelor’ couple Jake and Vienna split up


Fameball Jake Pavelka of The Bachelor and Dancing With The Stars has split with “fiancee” Vienna Girardi just three short months after the finale of the show that brought them together.

Pavelka surprised the show’s viewers by choosing Girardi over the more mom-friendly Tenley Molzahn. After the finale, Jake gushed about the awesomeness of selecting a bride via a highly dramatized, incredibly sexist and horribly catty contrived environment:

“It’s a giant love story,” Jake told E! Online in March, before turning to Girardi and saying, “You’re my best friend in the whole world, and that’s the most important thing to me.”

Girardi added, “The only thing I got out of this was the love of my life. And that’s all I wanted. The only thing I went on the show to find was him, and I got everything I wanted.”

It’s unclear how the “giant love story” unraveled, but Vienna was spotted out carousing with “Greek” actor Gregory Michael at some kind of a children’s cancer benefit. Michael, of course, instantly spilled about the breakup to any press who would listen:

“We hit it off and hung out and danced the night away,” Gregory told the mag. “She made it very clear that it was over with Jake.”

Pavelka’s rep asked for “privacy” for the reality show participants and confirmed the split:

“Jake and Vienna have split and appreciate the respect for their privacy at this time.”

Pavelka is said to be consoling himself by doing a guest spot on Lifetime’s “Drop Dead Diva.”
