Ben Higgins‘ episode of The Bachelor: The Greatest Seasons Ever! airs tonight and the former star is looking back at his time on the program.
In a new interview with US Weekly, the 31-year-old opened up about how close he is with his now exes, Lauren Bushnell and JoJo Fletcher.
“Not Lauren, we haven’t talked [about the show re-airing],” Ben says, talking about his ex-fiancee. “She’s married. I’m happy for her, and she found her partner.”
Ben added, “I mean, if she reached out saying, ‘Hey, how are you going to handle this? This is what’s sensitive me…’ I would love to take that call from her, but I don’t think I’m needed in this moment for her.”
Lauren recently married singer Chris Lane in October of last year.
As for his other ex, JoJo (who went onto star as The Bachelorette), Ben revealed while they’re in touch, they’re not best friends.
“JoJo and I are good friends. I have a lot of respect for her and Jordan [Rodgers, her fiance]…The same kind of thing, if she has a man and a confidant by her side that she probably leans in on.”
He added, “If I saw her, it would be … I actually saw her in the airport last year. It was awesome to see her and Jordan together, but we don’t keep in close contact. I think just because for me, and probably for them, it wouldn’t be healthy. It’s not smart.”

The Bachelor: The Greatest Seasons Ever! airs at 8/7c on ABC.
The Bachelor‘s Ben Higgins and his fiancee Jess Clarke are waiting until they are married to have sex.
“It’s just a respect level,” Ben told Nick Viall on the Viall Files podcast. “And also what the logistics of it is.”
They have been dating for around 18 months, and have “definitely” not had sex yet.
They have considered sleeping together before their wedding, which doesn’t have a date.
“We both were like, ‘Yeah, we could definitely see it.’ But what are we giving up to do that?” he said. “At the end of all of this, this is Jess’ day. This is our day as a couple, but I want to make sure she has the wedding she’s always dreamed of and that she feels celebrated.”

Ben Higgins, one of the former stars of The Bachelor, is engaged!
The 30-year-old reality star starred in the 2016 season of the ABC dating series and he got engaged to Lauren Bushnell, but they called off their engagement in May 2017.
Now, Ben is engaged to Jess Clarke, 24, according to Us Weekly.
Ben and Jess have been dating since the start of 2019 after he slid into her DMs on Instagram. Just a couple months ago, he talked about the possibility of marriage.
“I don’t think that’s a question,” Ben told Us Weekly in January 2020. “We’re great. It’s fun. It’s just healthy … I think she would say the same. Our relationship is healthy. I’m a better version of myself, a more free version of myself than I’ve been in a while.”
Ben and Jess are currently quarantining together at his family’s home. Congrats to the happy couple!
