Couple Abby Romeo and David Isaacman, who developed their relationship through the Netflix reality show 'Love on the Spectrum,' have reportedly broken up after about five years of dating.
According to U.S. entertainment outlet Page Six on the 9th (local time), a close associate of the two said, "The breakup is true," and "They could not narrow their differences over the timing of marriage. Abby has wanted to marry for several years, but David needed more time."
The two first met through season 1 of 'Love on the Spectrum,' which was released in 2021. In this program, which follows the dating processes of adults on the autism spectrum, the two fell in love after their first date and received strong support from viewers.
Their first meeting at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park is especially counted as a representative love story for the two. After continuing their relationship steadily, the two celebrated their fourth anniversary of dating in July last year. At that time David showed his affection by gifting a diamond bracelet.
Differences in thoughts about marriage led to the breakup. Abby, in the recently released season 4, confessed, "I feel like I'm already married in my heart," while also saying, "Because of my parents' divorce experience, I don't want to rush." At the same time she expressed the wish, "I want to be a bride."
Unlike Abby, who said while watching another couple's engagement scene on the show, "I hope it's our turn next," David took a cautious stance, saying, "We can get engaged when the appropriate time comes."
The two built a deep bond through commonalities of being on the autism spectrum and synesthesia. In a past interview Abby revealed special affection, saying, "We understand each other's ways of thinking and accept each other as we are."
