The two men first met over a decade ago, in 2014, when they were both working as personal trainers. Donovan shared a throwback photograph on TikTok showing him and Stanton together at a bar in Saint Martin. This reunion comes as Stanton navigates his own on-screen drama, including his husband Chris's baby bombshell.
Donovan expressed his hope that Stanton finds genuine love on the show, describing him as a sweet and genuine person. He also shared his thoughts on the current season, finding it 'catty and toxic.' Stanton, meanwhile, has spoken about his husband's baby news, expressing empathy but questioning the timing. He also criticized fellow groom Tyson's behavior, labeling it as misogynistic. Stanton admitted his connection with his on-screen husband was not instant but saw potential for building something meaningful.
