Kaitlynn Carter has opened up about going through two break ups in the space of two months.
Fans will remember that The Hills: New Beginnings star split from husband, Brody Jenner in August after one year of marriage. She then embarked on a whirlwind romance with Miley Cyrus, which ended in September after just one month of dating.

“I was not OK or thriving AT ALL for a while,” 31-year-old Carter revealed in a series of Instagram Stories on the weekend as she shared breakup tips with her followers.
“For me staying busy did help and at the end of the day, I still had to work/attend events so I had to keep it moving on social media,” she continued.
“When I was alone I was very sad and in my head about all of it,” she said of her break-ups.
“As I’ve said before, there’s really no way around it. You just have to go through it.”
Perhaps alluding to how quickly she got with Miley following her break up from Brody, the blonde star continued: “I know that dating before I’m ready would’ve made things so much worse cause I would’ve just been trying to replace someone else and ended up disappointed,” she explained. “I think it’s sooooo key to take as much time as you can to get comfortable completely on your own so that when you do date someone new you’re not dragging baggage into that relationship and also you aren’t compromising on what you want out of loneliness/panic.”
But most importantly, Kaitlynn stressed that it was important not to lose your cool on social media and say vindictive things about your ex.
“RESIST posting emotional stuff (memes, quotes, pics, etc) to social media. Even delete social media for a while if you can’t resist,” she advised. “You’ll never regret NOT posting something to IG but there are definitely things to regret when you post too much lol. We all do it, but just call your friends/write in a journal and keep it to yourself. It’s transparent, and you’ll be sooo happy you didn’t do it later.”
Wise words.
