During the date, Ulrika asked Jad if we wanted to spend the weekend away, to which he responded: ‘Do you feel like something is missing?’
Seeming unsure, Ulrika responded, ‘Like what?’ as Jad explained: ‘Just a little spark between us, like I’m being honest. We’ve got along great as friends, but I feel like we’ve become good friends and I like it where it is.’
Although Ulrika took the news with a straight face, as she relayed the news to best friend Laura, tearfully admitting: ‘I 100 percent would have taken him on the mini break. I’m not going to pretend otherwise.’
