Aurora Culpo is dating again after a recent heartbreak.
In an interview with PeopleThe reality star has revealed that she is on several dating apps, including Stir, an app designed specifically for single parents.
“I’m hoping to connect with someone who maybe has kids too,” Aurora, whose sister is fashion influencer Olivia Culpo, told the publication.
“I’m optimistic and I know it’s going to happen, but I’m in no rush.”
But love is not a big priority for the star.

‘I’m excited to meet someone eventually. “Right now, I’m dating myself and seeing what’s going to happen,” she explained.
It comes more than a year after the finalization of her divorce from Michael ‘Mikey’ Bortone and her recent split from Paul Bernon, Bethenny Frankel’s ex-boyfriend.
Since ending her marriage to Bortone, Culpo has enjoyed several casual relationships, “some of them more public than others for various reasons that are simply out of my control,” she told People.
Aurora, best known for starring in the Discovery+ series The Culpo Sisters alongside her sisters Olivia and Sophia, was married to Michael from 2019 to 2023.
The couple share two daughters, Solei, four, and a son, Remi, six.
Her love life made headlines earlier this year after she was linked to Bernon, who at the time had recently split from Frankel.
But that relationship wasn’t meant to be either: just two months after starting a romance, they ended it in July.
On an episode of her Barely Filtered podcast, Aurora revealed that Paul stopped talking to her on the phone.

She explained: “I would have preferred it to last longer, but unfortunately he left me… he called me and said, ‘It’s not working.'”
Despite feeling that she and Bernon were not compatible, she still felt “let down.”
The split comes just weeks after her older sister, Olivia, told the influencer she couldn’t bring the producer to her wedding to Christian McCaffrey, sparking family drama.
Recalling the time her sister objected to her bringing a companion, Aurora said: “She just didn’t know him yet and besides (Paul) didn’t want to come.” We were joking and making our jokes and she said he was (my) flavor of the month.

“I told him, ‘Don’t say that.’ That’s not fair (and) he’s going to hear that.” She says, ‘That has nothing to do with him, it has nothing to do with you.’
When Paul later found out what Olivia said, he ended his relationship with the Rhode Island native “the next day.”
Aurora joked on the podcast that, “He wasn’t the flavor of the month.” It had the taste of two months.
Even before they went their separate ways, Aurora’s doubts began to build.

“During the week before my sister’s wedding, I had feelings like, ‘This relationship probably isn’t for me. He doesn’t want to have children. “I didn’t want that door to close,” she explained in the same episode of the podcast.
‘There were things like he doesn’t want to have more children. ‘I probably want to have more children,’ said the mother of two.
She explained further: ‘Our communication style was very different. I’m not someone who can give space when someone feels hurt. I need to talk about things right away. We are not compatible and I would have known that if I had let the relationship move at a logical pace, but that’s not how I operate.
Aurora, however, is determined to move on and is “back on the (dating) apps.”
