But Jenn confirmed that Sasha Farber, her pro partner forDancing with the Stars’ upcoming 33rd season, is an exception to her bold statement.

“Besides you,” Jenn quipped, when Sasha was standing right next to her for the interview.

“I hate all men besides you,” she added.

Following After the Final Rose, Jenn and Sasha hopped on a plane so they could participate in Dancing with the Stars’official cast announcement on Good Morning America .

It was therefore a whirlwind 24 hours for Jenn, who admitted she’s a bit “overwhelmed” and has been experiencing “a very large range of emotions.”

Jenn shared, “It’s a healing process, but right now, I’m just so excited for this new opportunity and kind of just being able to jump into something different and something that I’ve always been wanting to do .”

Jenn also said she’s “stoked” to join the Dancing with the Stars “family,” following in the footsteps of many The Bachelorette alums before her — including Charity Lawson, Kaitlyn Bristowe, Gabby Windey and Hannah Brown .

“Honestly, I’m just so excited. [Sasha has] been great so far,” Jenn said. “I think we have a really good thing going, so I’m excited.”

Jenn said she took a ballroom dancing class in college, which she received credit for, but she has a long way to go until she looks like a professional onstage.

“We’re going to see where it goes. I’ve always wanted to learn,” Jenn noted.

The Bachelorette‘sthen-follows-maria-georgas-34178.php”>”historic” Season 21 finale featured an empowered Jenn proposing marriage to Devin, a 28-year-old freight company owner from Houston, TX, during the Final Rose Ceremony in Hawaii because she thought they had developed a strong and unconditional love.

Devin had led Jenn to believe that she was the girl of his dreams, and Jenn said their engagement was “the happiest day” of her life.

But Jenn said she noticed a “switch up” after filming the finale in May.

According to Jenn, she was never Devin’s main priority and he began “pulling away” from her — with calls and texts diminishing — until he finally dumped her over the phone and then followed Maria Georgas, who had been considered for The Bachelorette role, on Instagram.

On After the Final Rose , Jenn cried and questioned how Devin could make such passionate declarations about love only to then fall out of love with her and treat her like she’s “nothing.”

Jenn told The Bachelorette host Jesse Palmer, “He said something felt off from the second he proposed and that he regretted getting engaged… He denied ever being in love.”

Jesse admitted he was “totally shocked” by this news because Devin had claimed Jenn was the most important person in his life and that he’d never abandon her on the show.

During The Bachelorette journey, Jesse was apparently convinced that Devin was head over heels in love with Jenn.

During a Wednesday, September 4 appearance on Good Morning America , Jenn explained “it was pretty immediate” when Devin’s feelings for her appeared to change.

“I noticed his energy had shifted and his priorities shifted. He wasn’t the same person he was on the show, off of the show,” she recalled.

“The efforts were different and the inconsistencies and the things he was promising me — and then not fulfilling.”

Jenn explained how she had given Devin “grace,” thinking that he just needed time to transition fromThe Bachelorette bubble into the real world.

“[But] I think over time, I realized his heart just wasn’t in it anymore,” Jenn shared.

Jenn, however, said she doesn’t regret proposing marriage to Devin on The Bachelorette finale.

“I proposed to a man who had promised me a fulfilling life and a loving partnership and a marriage I always wanted, so I’m very confident in knowing that is still what I want, Jenn said.

“Unfortunately, he just wasn’t the man he had talked himself up to be.”

And Jenn apparently hasn’t lost hope that the right man is out there for her, maybe on a future season of Bachelor in Paradise !

Not only did Devin admit to following Maria on Instagram after his breakup with Jenn — which Jenn dubbed “so disrespectful” — but he also went clubbing with Jeremy Simon shortly after they parted ways.

Devin didn’t explain why exactly he had fallen out of love with Jenn and broken up with her, except for saying that he “fell short” of her expectations for him.

“I found myself not being able to live up to the things that you need and deserve,” Devin acknowledged, adding how he didn’t want Jenn to compromise herself to make him happy.

Devin admitted he had “failed” Jenn, who insisted she had “fought” so hard to save their relationship.
