Dale Moss Speaks Out on Clare Crawley Romance, Engagement and More: 5 Revelations From ‘Hollywood Raw’

Working it out! Dale Moss spoke out about his relationship with Clare Crawley for the first time since the pair reconnected following a brief split earlier this year. The former wide receiver, 32, confirmed that he and Crawley, 40, have been spending time together following their breakup in January while appearing on the Thursday, April 15, episode of "Hollywood Raw” podcast with Dax Holt and Adam Glyn. “We’re just living life and we’re doing it and being present with one another. It’s been great to go about it that way,” Moss said, adding that “everyone will know in due time” what the couple’s status is. Crawley’s whirlwind romance with Moss played out on season 16 of The Bachelorette, which aired in the fall of 2020. After falling hard for the model, the Bachelor in Paradise alum left the show with him less than two weeks into filming. The duo then got engaged during a November 2020 episode before Tayshia Adams stepped in as the new lead and finished the season. Adams, for her part, got engaged to Zac Clark. [sendtonews type="float" key="AqhdgSXafy-2839589-14453"] Us Weekly confirmed in January that Crawley and Moss split after dating for less than a year. The following month, the pair were spotted holding hands in Miami. They later spent time together in New York City, where Moss currently lives, and celebrated the California native’s birthday in wine country last month. “At the base foundation, no matter what anyone says, Clare and I love each other. We love each other tremendously. That was never a question,” Moss said on Thursday’s podcast. “If you love and care for someone, regardless of what happens, if it’s meant to be you’ll find yourself back together at some point. I truly believe that.” The former athlete didn’t confirm whether the duo are still engaged, but he did reveal that “Clare still has the ring” he gave her last year. “What I’ve always said, as we work through things, [is] if we’re together, we’re together. If we’re not, we’re not,” he continued. “We’re just in a good place. Just like with every relationship, we’re just working through things and supporting one another. And taking it as it comes.” Scroll down to see what Moss thinks about his time on The Bachelorette and more revelations about his relationship with Crawley. [podcast_block]

Does He Regret Doing ‘The Bachelorette’?

"It was the best decision of my life. Without a doubt. I haven't talked a lot about the relationship, neither has Clare. With us, we are really, really focused on one another and just building things properly,” he said. “Even reflecting back, I wouldn’t change anything for the world. I’ve grown so much throughout this. I met one of the most amazing people I’ve ever met in my life. I’ve grown a lot from the entire experience.”

Where Does He Stand With Clare?

"We've never hid throughout this entire time that we've been around each other. We’re not going and trying to hide out from people. We are definitely taking time, and spending time together,” he revealed. "Clare and I, we're in a good place. When the time is right, we will definitely talk about all those things. For right now, we're just focused on one another. We're keeping things private and that's working for us, in due time we'll speak about that together."

Was There Any Truth to the Cheating Rumors?

"That was never a conversation, even when we went through our split. It wasn't even a thing,” Moss said of the speculation surrounding his alleged infidelity. “You really have to look past that and focus on one another. I mean, that sucked. When things are going at your character, and something you're completely against, those are the hardest things to handle."

A source previously told Us Moss “never cheated” on Crawley. During the podcast, Moss noted that the way he was perceived in his South Dakota hometown is what meant the most to him amid the drama. “When I go home, everybody knows me and my family. We worked really hard to build a name and respect and carry ourselves properly. That’s something that stung the most,” he explained. “But it was short-lived. I go to bed at night and not sweat about whether those things were truthful or not, because that’s not in my character. It’s just a learning experience.”

How Does He Feel About Chris Harrison’s Controversy?

"He's definitely going through a lot with having to make this adjustment, but … it’s a chance for growth for everyone involved. We are in a day in age, especially over the last year, where people are realizing that their perspective or view has to change from an understanding standpoint,” the former South Dakota State football player explained. “I think Chris is a great guy. I've never had a bad experience with him, but I know this is a period of growth for him. It's a time of growth for the network as well.”

Moss also weighed in on Adams and Kaitlyn Bristowe taking over hosting duties for season 17 of The Bachelorette after Harrison, 49, stepped back amid his controversial comments about season 25 Bachelor winner Rachael Kirkconnell and her past racially charged remarks. “I think they’ve done a great job by bringing in previous contestants who have been on the show to host this season. It’s something that’s not so foreign for the viewers,” Moss continued. “You’ve got two great women who’ve been in the shoes of the lead and I know that they’ll do an amazing job. It’ll be a unique situation too, because they’ve been there directly.”
