In the confessional, Caryn admitted, “When Amy asked to see the ring, I would say I was a little scared, you know, who wants to do that? And you know, the moment was just right and I think it’s right that we’re engaged , you probably expected that at some point … she was very good about it.”
After joking that Matt’s “second half of life is better,” Amy admitted that she has complicated feelings about her ex’s engagement, but also expressed her happiness for the couple.
“It’s kind of funny to me,” she said in front of the cameras. “Matt’s my ex, but you know, I’ll be fine as long as we don’t get, you know, little things and personal stuff. Like, I would never talk to Caryn about Matt. I’m glad she’s not, ‘Oh yeah, we’re doing this together Amy , you know, did you do that?'”
