“I do feel horrible about, you know, watching it back and seeing the way that they were both treated,” Dean told Us Weekly about the love triangle after the drama played out in September 2017. “But I feel really, really bad about how Danielle has been treated and how she’s receiving so much negativity on her social media outlets. It’s so unfair to her. So for, like, those reasons, the reasons of other people receiving negativity because of me, I regret that.”
