Charli Burnett just shared a major update on her love life. The Vanderpump Rules SURver revealed that she has gotten back together with her ex-boyfriend since the end of the season. 

During an interview with The Daily Dish podcast, which you can check out below, Charli explained the timeline. “So, I was single filming Vanderpump,” she said, noting that she’s currently dating the man she referred to as her ex-boyfriend during Vanderpump Rules. They split shortly before she began filming, and got back together at the end of last August. 

“He was my boyfriend for two years. We broke up because he lives in Carlsbad and I live in Venice, and it was just too hard to kind of go back and forth. And I’m so busy with all of my jobs that I didn’t really have time to, you know, have a long-distance relationship. So we decided to take a break and break up,” she said. “I honestly thought it was permanent.” 

Although Charli didn’t think they’d ever get back together, she had a change of heart after spending more time with the SUR crew. 

“Towards the end of the show I actually started missing him. I think like, being around all the crazy people and learning so much about myself, I was like, you know, my relationship wasn’t that bad,” said Charli. “I saw everyone and how big their actual issues were, and like, from cheating to communication, I never had to deal with that. So it was like, you kind of have to pick your pros and cons as an adult and see what’s worth it. And he’s worth it.”
