Hayley Hendrich Breaks Silence on Ex Blake Robertson's Domestic Violence Arrest

Hayley Hendrich has spoken out for the first time since her ex-fiancé Blake Robertson's arrest on domestic violence charges. Blake was arrested in October 2025 in Texas for allegedly hitting Hayley after filming 'The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On,' where the couple got engaged. Hayley declined to press charges and discussed the matter privately with him.

In an interview with Us Weekly on Tuesday, Hayley said: 'It's been hard. Very hard to relive everything. Especially because of some decisions I made regarding that situation.' She added that reliving their relationship on the show has been particularly tough: 'After all the healing you've tried to do, you have to relive it publicly, which makes it a thousand times harder.'

Hayley revealed that after the engagement they lived together, but she felt unstable: 'There were a lot of triggers, so we couldn't really enjoy our engagement. I felt like I had been asking for emotional support for so long that when he finally tried, it didn't feel genuine anymore.' She admitted resentment built up: 'I felt like I was pouring into an empty cup, and my own cup was empty. I lost myself completely in that relationship, but I take responsibility for my faults. All you can do is grow and become a better person for yourself and your next partner.'

The couple broke up in September 2025, a month before Blake's arrest, but continued living together until the end of October. 'At the reunion, I didn't get closure. We've talked since, but it's been back and forth. Sometimes no closure is closure, and I've accepted that,' Hayley said. She feels ready to move on but acknowledges she still needs to heal: 'It would be selfish to put myself out there again after what happened. For my mental sanity, I'm not ready yet, but maybe soon.'
