Bischoff met Angel, 31, in September 2015 on Bumble, and the two got engaged in July 2016.

“As soon as I met Ricky, I knew,” Bischoff told the magazine. “I was in a very raw emotional state after my breakup. And I could be myself with him. I didn’t feel like I needed to put on a facade. I felt back to normal. It was a very refreshing feeling.”

Bachelor Chris Soules, 35, proposed to Bischoff on Season 19, but they announced their breakup less than three months after the proposal aired.
