She appeared to finally had enough and pulled Grocery Store Joe aside for a private chat on one of the resort’s oceanside daybed. 

“Being back here has brought back a lot. And I love you and I will always love you,” she told Joe. 

continued: “I still feel like you are my best friend, you know? I love watching you thriving and laughing but it reminds me of why I fell in love with you. And it’s hard to see that.”

A serious-looking Joe then asked: “So you’re not over us?”

“Don’t ask me that right now. I never stopped loving you obviously," the two-time star fired back.

She then began to fully sob and Joe comforted her with a sweet hug, rubbing her back and surfing words, such as: “This is why I’m here for you. I know you and I can see that something was up.”

“I just feel like I shouldn’t have come here,” she responded to her ex in tears. 

However, he assured her: “It’s alright. I know you’re going to be okay.”

Joe then inquired “why is she here” and Kendall said “I feel like we came here for the same reasons. I mean, why did you come here?”

He let out a long sigh and said “to be honest, the reason I came back out here is because I knew it was over between us.

“And if I didn’t feel that I wouldn’t have come. I also was under the impression you felt the same way. I’m always going to care about you and I’m always here for you.”

“You’ll be alright,” Joe once again assured but she responded as she walked away “well, it is what it is.”

She walked away from the beach while telling her friends Becca Kufrin and Tia Booth on the way out: “It’s been torturous watching them.”

Kendall told Joe: “I’m surprised you’re this okay.”
