BIP: Maurissa Gunn 'Taking Time To Heal At My Own Pace' After Breakup
Bachelor In Paradise star Maurissa Gunn is talking about how she's doing after her devastating breakup with Riley Christian in her latest post. Maurissa was on pilot Peter's season of The Bachelor but only lasted one week before being eliminated.

By December Maurissa had moved to New York to be with Riley, and the pair seemed to be doing good. Unfortunately, it didn't last long as, after some cryptic Twitter posts from both parties Maurissa deleted almost every picture of the couple from her Instagram. This led fans to speculate, and in late January the couple finally confirmed they had broken up.
