The Bachelorette alum also said, “I want to be there for you. But I can’t. And that’s ok cause I know you need this time – time to discover yourself again.”

It didn’t take long for Instagram users to sound off about the cryptic post.

“I’m not sure he realizes how much this makes it seems like she’s dead,” wrote a commenter.

“So basically are they separated?” questioned someone else.

“Did she die???? WTH does he know what this post sounds like???” another person asked. “Yes, miss her but this is a little too over the top. It sounds like she is dead.”

“Ryan I say this with love but a post like this is irresponsible. Everyone immediately panicked. Please just be aware of the message your sending,” added someone else.
