He has also filmed himself and his fiancée enjoying a meal at a pasta restaurant for an Instagram video.

Unfortunately, though, the new pictures of the couple has sparked a negative reaction from online trolls.

Last night, Devonta issued a lengthy statement on Instagram. He defended his decision to end his relationship with Brittany and insisted he didn’t lead her on during their time in the Netflix experiment.

Devonta said: “It’s honestly wild how many miserable people are upset that I chose not to stay in a relationship that wasn’t right for me. The narrative that I ‘led Brittany on’ is just that, a ‘narrative’.

“She’s a grown woman who could have left at any point. What you saw was me being real instead of forcing a marriage just to satisfy people watching from their couches.”

Devonta went on to describe his feelings about his relationship with Brittany, saying: “There were repeated moments of insecurity, constant comparisons to my past and shifting expectations that made it clear we weren’t on the same page.”

Addressing his baby mama, he continued: “To the people speaking on my current relationship, mocking my partner and even bringing up our future child, that’s just sad.

“We as humans need to do better about judging people we’ve never met or had a real conversation with.

‘”I am happy, in love nd I can’t wait to meet our baby. Have a blessed day. And for the people saying I downgraded, that’s crazy.

“Clearly you haven’t seen her. She’s the most beautiful woman I have ever seen walk this planet.”

Devonta finished his statement by telling his new fiancée: ‘I love you baby and no one could ever convince me otherwise.”

Brittany has not responded directly to Devonta’s statement. But this week, she appeared in The Viall Files podcast and said of her ex: “He’s very, very manipulative.”
