Why did Sophia Culpo and Braxton Berrios break up?

In the video clip, the model said, "I wasn't able to talk about this when it first happened. I still don't really have words. I'm not really one to air out a bunch of dirty details. But I do know that I shared my relationship with you guys so it makes sense that there are questions about why this person is no longer in my life. I know that I've lost a lot of weight."

The influencer added, "It's not intentional. The betrayal in my last relationship just really took a toll on me, but I have the most amazing support system. I have the most amazing family and friends and I'm really grateful that I'm even able to pick myself up and move myself to a new place on my own. So, there are a lot of things that I am grateful for..."

Sophia, who is actress Olivia Culpo's sister concluded, "I don't wish what I went through on my anybody. I really, really don't and I'm trying my best to just take the high road here. I appreciate everyone's love and support, I really do. It means a lot to me. Us girls girls gotta stick together and one day I will share all the lessons that I've learned."

She proceeded to post a follow-up message on her Instagram story after receiving messages of support and wrote, "I'm overwhelmed in the best way with so much love, positivity, and encouragement. I don't know why I was so ashamed to talk about it but I learned that's a normal response to what I'm going through. Anyone who's been lied to or cheated on can relate to feeling embarrassed, ashamed, confused, and all the emotions that come with it."
