However, Iaconetti also revealed, “I never kissed him again until Kevin and I broke up after my birthday on March 6.”
Despite finally reuniting with her dream guy, Iaconetti did feel guilty about going behind Wendt’s back. “When [Jared] pulled me in the second time, I said was ‘I shouldn’t have done that.'”
Iaconetti also shared she was shaken up over what to do with Wendt because she felt he was a really good guy.
