Kat Izzo FINALLY Reveals Why She Broke Up with Dale Moss – HE CHEATED
Kat Izzo Breaks Silence on Split from Dale Moss — Claims He Hooked Up with Someone Else
Kat Izzo is finally opening up about what really led to her breakup with fellow Bachelor Nation alum Dale Moss, and it’s much messier than either of them previously let on.
The pair, who met and fell for each other on Bachelor in Paradise Season 10, confirmed their romantic split late last year after trying to make things work in the real world. Their breakup was first publicly reported as a mutual decision to remain friends, but on the Bachelor Happy Hour podcast, Kat revealed a very different explanation for the end of their relationship.
What Went Wrong After Paradise
Izzo explained that although she and Moss initially agreed to take a break, they stayed in touch and even spent a weekend together in San Diego after filming, during which Moss expressed a desire to work things out. They continued talking for several weeks, but Kat eventually realized the relationship wasn’t progressing and ended it after Moss went silent for an entire weekend.
Right after she ended things, Kat says she received a text from a friend that included messages claiming Moss had “hooked up” with another woman the night before. Initially, Moss denied the accusation when she confronted him, asserting they had not slept together. But after Kat spoke with the woman involved, she was told the encounter did happen, and that Moss’s description didn’t match the real events.
“That’s when I was like, ‘Okay, I’m done,’” Kat shared, adding that the dishonesty was a bigger issue than the hookup itself and made her feel she couldn’t trust him.
Dispute Over How It Became Public
Kat also revealed that she had not planned to go public with these details, but felt compelled to after Moss gave his own explanation of their split to the press, saying they “were better off as friends.” She says when media outlets reached out for comment, she pushed back against that narrative and shared her side instead.
According to Kat, after she started telling her story, she received a cease-and-desist letter alleging harassment, a move she called “insane” and an attempt to silence her.
A Relationship With Distance Issues
Earlier in her Bachelor Happy Hour interview (part one), Kat discussed other struggles, including communication challenges and long-distance concerns. She admitted that she struggled to get clear information from Moss about plans for the future, especially regarding where they would live and grow their relationship, which added to her frustration.
Kat Izzo Claims Dale Moss Hooked Up with Someone Else Before They Broke Up
The Bachelor Nation star started by explaining they both decided to go on a break. However, the two were still technically together when Dale visited San Diego and expressed he wanted to work things out.
“He’s in San Diego, we spend the whole weekend together. He’s like, ‘I love you, I want to be with you. I want to make this work,’” she said. She tentatively agreed and the two started talking every day for a few more weeks, until ultimately realizing that nothing had changed. Kat felt like she couldn’t move on while their relationship was in limbo, so after not hearing from Dale for an entire weekend, she called to end things.
“The second we get off the phone, I get a ‘hey girly’ text,” Kat says, “Literally the moment I pressed that button, I get a ‘hey girly’ text from one of my friends who got a ‘hey girly’ text from someone else.” Kat then read the messages that claimed Dale slept with another girl the night prior and could provide photo evidence. Kat stated that she immediately called Dale, but he denied hooking up with someone else.
After multiple calls and uncovering more details, Kat ultimately chose to contact the woman herself to get answers firsthand.
“I reach out to the girl personally because as Dale and I were talking before that,” Kat continues, “I was like, ‘How did you get to the bedroom?’ And he was like, ‘Well, we were talking and she followed me into my room and then she left. And we never slept together — we did everything besides s*x.’ All this stuff and all these things, it just kept growing.”
“It comes out, of course, that they did actually fully hook up and she was actually the one that kicked him out of the room,” she continued, “All these crazy details that completely conflict everything that he said. And I — at that point — was like, ‘Okay, I’m done. You will never be able to speak to me again because now, at this point, every single thing that you have said to me has been a lie.’ …I think he probably was not honest with me about other things in the relationship. I mean, I saw so many signs of it, so what hurt me so much was the level that he went to be dishonest. I felt like, how can someone be so capable of that?”
Kat went on to say she cut off all communication with Dale and opened up about what she described as an “insane” incident that unfolded during the holidays.
“This is what I’m gonna end with because this is what’s so crazy. And if there’s one thing about me, it’s that if you try to silence me, I’m going to scream louder. I actually wasn’t going to make anything public about our breakup. He decided to do that,” she revealed, “When he went to the press and said that we broke up because we’re better off as friends — which would require us to be friends first — they reached out to me. They said, ‘This is what happened, give me a comment.’ And I go, ‘Oh, that’s not actually the story.’”
“I did tell the full story to an extent, obviously,” she said, “I was just like, ‘This is actually the case.’ And then I receive, the day before Thanksgiving, a cease and desist. A three-page, multiple-paragraph, harassment cease and desist. It was insane. It was the most insane thing I’ve ever read in my life. It’s like, you don’t agree with what my experience is, so you’re trying to make me not say it? And send threatening messages about how you’re gonna sue me for millions of dollars if I do? When, guess what? Defamation only works if I was lying.”
