Matt James Says He ‘Booked a 1-Way Ticket to Kenya’ After Rachael Kirkconnell Split

Matt James told fans he 'booked a one-way ticket to Kenya' following his split from Rachael Kirkconnell, in his first major venture since their breakup.

Give us a peace about this decision to end our relationship that transcends worldly understanding,” Matt captioned a January 16 photo showing himself and Rachael meeting for the first time on The Bachelor. Rachael claimed that Matt had posted the breakup news on his Instagram page “two or three hours after” ending their relationship in the midst of a trip to Tokyo, Japan. Rachael told host Alex Cooper that she was “blindsided” at the start of a 12-hour long haul flight from Tokyo to Atlanta, Georgia, when she found out about his decision to post about their split so quickly.
