Matt Grant Moves Out of Shayne Lamas’ Condo

That took, what, almost an entire month? Way to go guys!

The Bachelor star Matt Grant, is no longer living with fiancée Shayne Lamas, though the Brit insists that all is well with the two.

Sure thing, Matt. You tell yourself that.

The couple have cohabitated at Shayne Lamas’ Century City, Calif., place since the Bachelor season ended with the two getting engaged.

But Matt Grant moved because the two “need space to grow.”

“I had to get my own life out here (in L.A.),” says Grant.

“Get my career and friends and have my own circle. That’s important in a relationship. That you are not entirely on top of someone.”

Matt Grant and Shayne Lamas got engaged on The Bachelor in May.

The couple has been dogged by rumors of discord since their TV engagement.

Grant says that they are doing well overall, though.

“Early on in the relationship, people need a little space,” says Grant.

“It’s almost to keep the spark — the romance — that exists in the first year of a relationship. Living together after knowing one another after four months is probably a little bit quick. Certainly for our generation.”

Matt Grant does concede it has been “a difficult time” but insists that most of the pressure has come from “external forces.”

He says the two are still engaged despite having moved into his own condo in the Valley.

And he insists that he’s had no second thoughts about choosing Shayne Lamas: “I made the right decision.”

Okay. Give it another few weeks then.

  • I am very sad to hear that Matt and Shayne have split. They were a beautiful couple. Shayne is so pretty and yet so real with a sweet personality. I was so glad he chose her. I hope they get back together.

  • I liked Matt and Shayne from the very beginning-they were an awesome couple. I think he made the right choice in picking Shayne regardless of the final outcome. My best wishes to both of them.

  • I wonder if he will call Chelsea and would Chelsea give him the time of day?! Someone should interview Chelsea on her thoughts on the subject both the break up and if she would give him the time of day. That would be an interesting interview.

  • I so wanted Matt and Shayne to get together, get married, and stay married. I was a little worried about the Hollywood scene and how so many couples are together for a while and then break up. I hope that doesn't happen to them.
