Tara Pavlovic has appeared to take a swipe at her former fiancé Sam Cochrane, weeks after their split made headlines. The 29-year-old former Bachelor In Paradise star took to Instagram Stories on Monday with a message about 'fake people' who use others for attention and fame.
In the post, Pavlovic admitted she has struggled to remain positive in the month following the split, during which Cochrane accused her of acting violently. 'The last month for me has been tough,' she wrote.
She went on to accuse society of 'judging' and 'bullying' her, adding: 'Unfortunately I have realised that we live in a very fake world. People use people to try and get places through faking friendships.'
Pavlovic concluded by urging fans to reject fake relationships and surround themselves with trustworthy people. 'Surround yourself with people who respect you not only for others to see, but also behind closed doors,' she stated.
The post comes after Cochrane made claims that Pavlovic subjected him to physical and verbal abuse before their break-up in June. Pavlovic later admitted to hitting Cochrane after their engagement party but said he 'pushed her' to do it, insisting her actions were 'out of character'.
