Taite Radley looks downcast as he is spotted for the first time since his split with Ali Oetjen

Former Bachelorette star Ali Oetjen announced that she and her boyfriend Taite Radley had split last month.

And on Monday, 29-year-old Taite was spotted for the first time since the break up in his hometown of Ballarat, Victoria.

He looked downcast as he left his new gym Sweaty AF, which he has been forced to close as the regional town prepares for stage three COVID-19 restrictions this week.

The reality TV star rugged up in a black puffer jacket teamed with a comfortable pair of grey track pants, a green beanie and black trainers.

He was seen leaving a building, carrying a pink water bottle and a laptop bag with him.

The former banker-turned-gym owner was then walked to his car, with his headphones in, showing a small smile, likely entertained by what he was listening to.

Taite later stepped out wearing a face mask on his way to do some grocery shopping at an Aldi supermarket.

He left the store with just one bag of essentials, likely for himself. 

The former Bachelorette contestant was due to open his new gym Sweaty AF, but has been forced to postpone as Ballarat prepares to go into stage three coronavirus restrictions on August 6.  

Taite’s lonely trip to Aldi comes after he and Ali Oetjen announced their split on July 25 via their respective Instagram accounts.

Both posts featured the same caption, that read: ‘It is with the heaviest heart that we want to let everyone know that we have decided to take time apart in order to give each other space and time to fully focus on our own paths.’

‘We both love each other deeply and only want the best for each other, and both want the ultimate happiness for each other and hopefully our paths will reconnect again soon.

‘We’ve decided to be open with this so there’s no speculation and so we expect love, respect and kindness in return.’
