'Unpolished': Lexi Martone opens up about her breakup with Joe Fraumeni, fans say 'Joe wasn't enough'

Lexi hinted that Joe couldn't handle how ambitious she is, among other things, which became the reasons for the couple to part ways

Blue-haired reality TV star Lexi Martone successfully kept the details of her relationship under wraps. As opposed to her sister Bria Martone, who was very vocal and open about her relationship and engagement with Matt Mancuso, on the show as well as on social media, Lexi hasn't let the audiences in on what she shared with Fraumeni.

The two are no longer together and the news of their breakup has been out for quite some time now. The reason for the same was unknown to the show's audiences and her fans. However, on Tuesday's (January 26) episode, Lexi opened up about what truly led to the falling out of her and Fraumeni. 

Why did Lexi Martone break up with Joe Fraumeni?

Lexi and Fraumeni had moved in together while they were in a relationship. The two dated for a year and then she decided that she didn't want to be with him at all. If social media updates are anything to go by, the last photo of the two together on Lexi's Instagram page was on November 25, 2019 — a promo shoot one. In the recent episode, Lexi opened up to her friend Ashley about the breakup, where she did not just blame the lack of compatibility between them but also how their personalities were completely different. She also said that Fraumeni was getting in the way of her ambitions and that she didn't want someone like that in her life. 

How are audiences reacting to Lexi and Joe Fraumeni's breakup?

"We need more details. I’m not understanding I’m my own person and I’m independent. Why do I think she was trying to say Matt was a bum that didn’t want more in life? Lol #Unpolished," read a tweet. "Joe seemed like he had the IQ of one of those stuffed animals you could win in the ring toss at the carnival #Unpolished," another wrote. "Joe wasn't man enough for @leximartone only a real man isn't intimidated by a strong talented woman. #Unpolished," read another comment. 

'Unpolished' airs on Tuesday at 10 pm ET on TLC.
