The duo went public with their romance in July of that year, but in November, they announced that they’d called it quits. The Dancing With the Stars alum confirmed that she and the broker split because they didn’t agree on having children.“Men have the luxury of time that women don’t and that’s just the way it goes,” the former soap star wrote via Instagram in November 2021. “I very much hope to one day have a family and decisions I make at this point are with that goal in mind.”Though Oppenheim wasn’t interested in expanding his family, Fitzgerald is still hopeful that he’ll change his mind in the future.“I think he would be an amazing father,” she told Us. “I hope he comes around to it because his kid would be very lucky.”She added that her assistant had just recently taken the dogs to see Oppenheim because he “missed” them.
