The Bachelor Winter Games star Lesley Murphy is breaking her silence after her split with Dean Unglert. The pair met on the sets of the ABC reality TV show spin-off and were together for around four months.

Lesley recently posted a photograph of herself barefoot and looking out of the window. The location of the photograph has been tagged as Vermont and Lesley is looking out into a snow-covered landscape and holding on to a metal mug.

Lesley posted a very detailed caption to her followers and fans along with the photograph."It's a bit strange to feel the need to post about this, but I don't think I can honestly resume my normal programming without giving you an explanation - and maybe that's the wrong word, but I just wanted to thank y'all for the love and respect you've shown me over the past few days."

Lesley was on season 17 of the TV series and mentioned that she spent five years away from Bachelor Nation living abroad and traveling on work. She explained that she appeared on Bachelor Winter Games in the hope to find love "because I’ve seen this franchise work miracles before. Through The Bachelor and my journey around the world, I have made deep connections, true meaningful intimate relationships with many walks of life."

She even stresses on the values she has and upholds and stresses on what is important to her. "I know it’s imperative to find someone who chooses us and acknowledges our many layers, who can be open and vulnerable, and most importantly, who is ready. To meet someone and be met. To be chosen and to choose. To love and to be loved. This is everything."

However, Lesley did not mention what exactly went wrong with her and Dean but she makes it very clear that she is looking for someone who is an equal. 

"All we need is that same energy reciprocated, and despite how open and loving you attempt to be, people can only meet you as deeply as they’ve met themselves. Don’t be afraid to be the one that loved the most and give everything you had, because you’ve got to find people who love like you do and who are ready."

She concluded the post by saying, "It was a long winter, and I’m excited for a new season. Let the spring cleaning commence. I’m ready."
