Breaking Down Clayton Echard and Susie Evans’s Entire 10-Month Relationship


In a plot twist truly no one saw coming, Clayton Echard and Susie Evans are back together after breaking up on The Bachelor in what might have been the most dramatic messiest season ever. In the span of just nine months, Susie and Clayton’s relationship is already doing the most, so obviously we’re here to keep track of it all. Starting from day freakin’ one.

September 26, 2021

Clayton and Susie meet when The Bachelor started filming at good ol’ Bachelor Mansion, a place that has truly seen some things. We know this is the fated day that Clayton and Susie lock eyes because producer Mike Fleiss went ahead and tweeted this:

Susie and Clayton film their hometown date, which we know thanks to Reality Steve being an absolute fountain of never-ending information about this show’s production schedule:

Clayton and his final three head to Iceland for fantasy suites, where alllll the drama goes down. To make a long (and unhinged) story short (and slightly less unhinged), Clayton tells Susie that he slept with Rachel Recchia and Gabby Windey, which prompts her to—understandably—leave:

Clayton then feels the need to tell Rachel and Gabby that he slept with/is in love with both of them, and he is in love with Susie.

Clayton then inexplicably continues to lead Rachel and Gabby on, only to break up with them both and reconnect with Susie, who rejects him at the finale “altar.”

A MESS!!!!!!!

November 2021 to March 2022

Susie and Clayton secretly reconnect (she slides into his DMs) and after hours of phone calls and FaceTimes, they decide to start dating. Susie later tells People, “I wanted answers for how he treated me on the initial day of our breakup. But we’ve learned so much about each other. And those feelings of love came back.”

Of course they have to keep the relationship entirely secret for the sake of maximum TV drama, but here’s a glimpse of what their vibe is like during this era:

Clayton’s finale airs and—surprise!—we find out he and Susie are back together and have been dating this entire time. Clayton also reveals he is moving to Virginia to live with Susie and he quit his job. In other words, he’s all in!

“I think what’s so important is for us to live together and start to live that life alongside each other,” he tells People of the move, while Susie adds, “We’re just enjoying this time for ourselves, and we do have future plans. We just haven’t talked about an engagement or a wedding or anything like that, but Clayton’s coming to Virginia.”

As for what comes next for these two? A road trip, apparently. In March, Susie and Clayton announce that they are planning on returning to Arizona to grab Clayton’s stuff and then drive back to Virginia. “We’re going to take a road trip across the country,” Clayton said. “It’s gonna be a lot of fun. We’re basically going all the way cross country, so we can hit wherever we want.” Well, the two may have hit a few bumps along the way, because…

In what some (read: many) consider to be a sign of the end, Clayton opens up on Dear Media’s Not Skinny but Not Fat podcast and announces he and Susie are going to be moving to different cities.

    “We’re like, ‘We don’t know if it’s going to be a monthlong [relationship] from here or if it’s gonna be lifetime but, like, there’s no pressure. Let’s just love each other and be thankful,’” the 29-year-old confesses. “We’re very, very happy right now and in a really great spot, but yeah, we went through it—together though. Thankfully, she’s been on my side and that’s the only reason why I can sit here with so much positivity is because of her.”

    As for where they’ll each be moving? That’d be Scottsdale, Arizona for Clayton and Los Angeles, California for Susie, tyvm. “Only a 50-minute flight apart, but we’re both chasing our dreams, and I think location-wise, we both feel that those are the spots that we want to be,” Clayton continues. “I mean, I’m working on my computer 10, 12 hours a day. So she was like, ‘Clayton, I’ll move to L.A. and then we can travel on the weekends to see each other.’ And we’ll see. We don’t know if we’re going to like that long-distance.”

    While the former football player notes that “people might look at us like, ‘Oh, they’re separating,’” he stands by the decision, insisting “a little distance never hurts.”

    Welp, Susie and Clayton are over. They announced their split with a joint Insta, as ya do, writing in part “Although this last year together has brought us so much joy and so many laughs, there has also been a significant amount of pain. We know no healthy relationship comes without its struggles, but we’ve realized that we were not prepared for the external forces that hindered our ability to not only heal as individuals but also as a couple. We both are focused on continuing to work on ourselves, so we can be the best version of ourselves.”
