Last season’s bachelor, Andy Baldwin, has split from his fiancée, Tessa Horst, and they won’t have much time for reconciliation.

His rep confirms that the Naval doctor, 30, will be deployed to Iraq for six to 12 months!

“He leaves in January,” the rep tells Us. Did his assignment lead to the breakup? A Baldwin pal says that while long-distance love was already proving difficult (he’s in Hawaii, she’s in San Francisco), the news he was going abroad “was a factor.”

To whomever said they thought Tessa was in it for the publicity. Are you comatose? That is precisely what broke them up--Andy's love of publicity. Tessa has not spoken a word for months and months. She has not been seen for as long. While I believe Andy really loves her, he really goofed up.

Sorry US - you really need to check your "sources" - which, btw, should be the public affairs officer of Andy's command. He is NOT going to be stationed in IRAQ. He IS going to the PERSIAN GULF region (which is a huge place). Get the facts from the right source. Thousands of our men and women are already there in the battle zone - we need to focus on THEM. They are doing an incredible job against unbelievable odds.

Tessa is so unattractive!!!

You're saying, if you agree with the war, you should go fight in it. I'm assuming the same logic would apply to the "war" against crime then. If you agree with it, you better get going to the police academy. Is that not what you're saying?

Do you agree with rape, murder, crime in general? Because if you don't, you must be a cop according to your logic.

THE BREAKUP IS OLD NEWS... THEY BROKE UP MONTHS AGO. HE WAS ALSO ALL OVER MISS. IRAN (OR WHOMEVER SHE WAS)IN LA ON HERE (I THINK) A FEW WEEKS AGO. IF THEY WEREN'T BROKEN UP AT THAT TIME, SHE SHOULD'VE KICKED HIM TO THE CURB FOR CHEATING ON HIM IN LA. LA MUST HAVE BEEN TOO FAR AWAY FROM SAN FRANCISCO FOR HIM TO SEE TESSA STILL.

I'd also like to see Britney and all of her partners in the "we should all just trust our president in decision he makes" naivite go over.

I agree, i expected it too. He should chosen Bevin. I was so sick of "poor me, i have poor self esteem, could you really like me?" act from this chick tessa on the show. Gag me. i hope he finds someone who's more deserving of him.

9:58 AM ya'll are idiots Says:

amen, finn!

9:56 AM finn Says:

I really don't think the Iraqis give a crap who he is. He is not a HVT (high value target). Its very arrogant to think the rest of the world cares what we watch on TV. As someone who has actually been to the middle east I assure you, they do not.

9:52 AM finn Says:

I love the Bachelor because when they get down to 2 women left the guy always ends up sleeping with them both on their special "one on one" dates. Seeing 20 women go after a guy who has trouble getting laid... that is just good tv.

his identical twin IS cuter. Um, Okay?!?!

9:52 AM Lets tell EVERYONE now Says:

Yeah, it's really safe to tell the world "Hey, Lt. Andy Baldwin will be going to Iraq for a year." Um, let's just give him a red target while he's out there. Seriously, people think before you put things out. And there are many NAVY guys that are out in Iraq. I'm pretty sure OPSEC is happy with you.

9:48 AM ya'll are idiots Says:

first of all, he's a DOCTOR - not a diver. i'm thinking there's a lot he can do in iraq.

and didn't ryan and tristan just have a baby? so yeah, guess there IS at least one couple from that retarded show that has stayed together.

get a life.

Some relationships just don't work out. Everyone has a 50/50 shot.

I knew that they would never make it. Tessa was never into him, but he was into her. He should have chosen Bevin.

8:54 AM Gatorgirl Says:

They broke up over a month ago. This is old news. And, really,....did anyone expect them to actually get married? There hasn't been one bachelor that's stayed with the girl he picked.
I think it's time for ABC to move on.

I think this program has run its course. Can we please find a new show to replace it.

Hey people! This article is NOT TRUE! There's no break-up! Andy is not getting deployed to Iraq! He's getting deployed to the Persian Gulf - he'll be mostly at sea and going to different regions in the Gulf. Obviously, US Magazine is making up information because they can't get the facts from the correct sources. Notice US Magazine used "pal" and "rep" instead of identifying the name of a real person. By doing that, US avoids getting sued! I really pity all those who believe gossip from trash mags like US Magazine and In Touch Magazine.

>Well that should make him happy, since he has been seen around town >with an Iraqi woman.

She was Iranian you dim wit. There are a LOT of Persians in Los Angeles so it's not exactly unusual. He didn't pick her up in the middle east.

So, what exactly is a Navy diver going to do in Iraq?

I wish US Weekly would stop these high school kids from coming on blogs and trying to ruin the fun for everyone else.
People who keep their screen names and then yell at the people using them for derogatory purposes need to get a life too. Here's a tip, just remain anonymous! The time and effort that Wicked person uses yelling at her "troll" is really annoying.

My son-in-law is serving his second tour in Iraq. His unit hit a roadside bomb right after he arrived there for his first tour. He pulled five soldiers out of the wreckage.

That is newsworthy. Andy Baldwin isn't. It's gossip, pure and simple!

Why is everyone picking on Alrighty?? They are right! So he has to go and do his job, and hes not even a real celebrity, he is a reality star, celebrities have talent.

9:20 PM Southern Gal Says:

The Bachelor's love lives never last, ever. The show needs to be cancelled.
