In her most candid interview yet, The Bachelor’s Nikki Ferrell sits down exclusively with Life & Style to tell all! Here, she reveals how her relationship with Juan Pablo Galavis came to an end over texts and insists that it was a mutual breakup. Plus, she answers the question on everyone's mind — did he ever say 'I love you?'

Opening up about their breakup, Nikki exclusively tells Life & Style, “It all played out over a couple of days, right before my birthday.”

Nikki, who turned 28 on Oct. 29, shares. “We were just going back and forth through texting. He was questioning the relationship, and I was questioning it back. I sent him a message saying, ‘We should fight for this. We should work this out.’ And he didn’t respond.”

To keep it from ruining her birthday celebration, Nikki cut Juan Pablo out of her life: She posted about her anger on Instagram, blocked him on Twitter and deleted his number. She tells Life & Style, “In hindsight, I probably shouldn’t have done that. I’m a tad bit impulsive."
