Who is Jenn Tran's ex? Former lover to appear in 'The Bachelorette' Season 21 in franchise first
BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS: Jenn Tran discussed one of her past relationships on TikTok during her participation on 'The Bachelor', describing how she was smitten and desired to wed him. Sadly, her ex-boyfriend—whom she affectionately called "Weiner Boy"—did not share her sentiments and broke up with her.
Her ex soon came forward to provide his version of events. Spoiler alert: He is aware that he committed a grave error.
Based in Boston, Massachusetts, Matt Rossi manages brands and creates content. He facilitates the communication between creators and brands.
Matt is making the connections between creators and brands. He has a track record of success in the food and beverage business as a part-time content creator and skilled brand marketer, with a combined following of over 80K.
Product development, social media, influencer and creator marketing, strategic planning, product innovation, team management, leadership, and digital and shopper marketing are among Matt's strong suits. With a Bachelor of Business Administration from the University of Michigan's Stephen M Ross School of Business, he is a capable marketing specialist.
Prior to attending Stephen M Ross School of Business, Matt attended Newton North High School. Before starting a full-time internship at Subaru of New England as their marketing and advertising intern, he worked as an intern for five months at Music Drives US.
Matt began working at PepsiCo as a Marketing Intern—MTN DEW—in 2017. He is currently the Brand Manager at The Boston Beer Company.
What happened between 'The Bachelorette' Jenn Tran and her ex Matt Rossi?
Matt, who goes by @themattyrossi on TikTok, gave his fans the inside scoop on what really transpired between him and Jenn back in the day in a video that he posted on the platform.
"Before I was a twinkle in my dad's eye, he was a 24-year-old f--kboy living in Boston with his three best friends," said Kirkland.
"He was painfully single, not too different than how he is right now, so he decided to go on his app called Hinge, which he had never done before because he was scared of Craigslist Killers and he found this really cute, sweet girl named Jenn."
He continued by saying that while Jenn was well outside of his level, she gave him a chance and they eventually began dating. But Matt said he wasn't ready when things became serious and Jenn wanted to settle down.
Kirkland humorously concluded the narrative, saying, "Years passed, they stayed friends, and now my dad is using her for clout."
'The Bachelorette' Jenn Tran accused of ghosting ex Matt Rossi
In closing the video, Matt asked Jenn to give him another chance and to explain why she wasn't answering his texts. Jenn resides in Miami and is presently pursuing her physician assistant degree, according to her ABC bio.
It was after her split with Matt that she decided to apply to a non-Boston university. Following a getaway trip to Miami with friends, Jenn fell in love with the city and made the decision to apply to universities there.
"I probably applied to 10 schools... and every single one of those schools rejected me, except for the school in Miami," she revealed on TikTok.
"So if I never dated Wiener Boy in the first place and Wiener Boy never broke my heart so badly... I would've never gone to Miami and I would've never applied to a school in Miami."
She added, "If I never applied to Miami, I never would've gotten into PA school and I wouldn't be in PA school right now, which is crazy! If Wiener Boy hadn't broken my heart, I wouldn't be fulfilling my dreams right now."
