"Just watching some Bachelorette with @souleschris and @whitb624," Sattler, who got to know Soules as a contestant on Andi Dorfman's season of the reality show, wrote on Monday, May 25. "While those two cuddle on the couch I get this little cutie to snuggle with! This little dog is such a lover!"

Alongside Sattler's update was a photo of the buff reality star, 28, cuddling Bischoff's Maltese puppy Lillie.

"Whitney Bischoff and Chris Soules have mutually and amicably decided to end their engagement," the couple revealed in a joint statement. "They part with nothing but respect and admiration for one another and will continue to be supportive friends. They wish to thank everyone who has supported them through this journey."

Soules' final Instagram post with Bischoff was taken last Wednesday, May 20, after the finale of Dancing With the Stars. "Post-show pic with the fam," the Iowa farmer wrote, alongside a group pic with his parents. "I truly am the world's luckiest guy. Love you @whitb624."

While the split was shocking to many, a source told Us that it was a clean breakup. "Nothing dramatic happened," the insider said. "They just realized that they weren’t meant to be together forever."

A second source told Us: "There is no real drama. They just didn't get a chance to know each other well and their lives are in different places."
