Aurora Culpo Shares Message on Dating in the Public Eye After Paul Bernon Breakup
Like many, Aurora Culpo is experiencing the highs and lows of dating.
In fact, two months after the Barely Filtered podcast host split from producer Paul Bernon, she's sharing a message on finding a "forever" person.
"You learn something new from every person that you date," Aurora recently told E! News in a joint interview with sister Sophia Culpo. "And that's dating. It's just figuring out what works and what doesn't work."
"Hopefully, you take a little bit of what you learned last time and you implement it," the 35-year-old, whose relationship with Bethenny Frankel’s ex Paul made headlines over the summer amid sister Olivia Culpo's wedding festivities, continued. "No one's perfect and there's always going to be more people that are not meant to be your forever person than people that are, that's the process and you just can't take it to heart. Gotta try not to take things personally."
As Sophia, 27, pointed out, dating in the spotlight has its disadvantages.
"More often than not," she said, "dating publicly, it's the publicity of it that hurts more than the relationship."
It can also accelerate the relationship process.
"It's a catalyst," Aurora added. "It just speeds up whatever insecurities might already be there. So I think it kind of just speeds up the inevitable."
"I do think sometimes a public relationship can prohibit you from really developing like a foundation," the Culpo Sisters star—who shares kids Remi, 6, and Solei, 4, with ex Mikey Bortone—noted. "But in my situation, none of my relationships since I got divorced have been serious. I haven't had anything super devastating. It's all just been fun."
As Aurora enjoys her new era, Sophia is also celebrating a personal milestone: Her first anniversary with boyfriend Michael Stevens.
"I can't believe that it's been a year, it flies by," Sophia told E!, adding that she feels, "very lucky. And he fits into our family. My mom, I think, likes him more than me, to be honest."
Sophia, who—along with Aurora—recently teamed up with Thorne to highlight her health journey, is feeling at peace in her current era.
"As you get older, you learn how to date more healthy," she explained. "I feel like the first relationship in my life where I really feel like I'm actually actively participating in how I feel and how it makes me feel."
