“Love on the Spectrum” star Abbey Romeo gushed about her now-ex David Isaacman during a podcast appearance just two weeks before their split.

Abbey and her mother, Christine Romeo, appeared on the “We Need to Talk” podcast on March 24, and Abbey praised Isaacman.

Abbey said she and Isaacman enjoyed going to places like the LA Zoo, Disneyland, Universal Studios and the Griffith Observatory together, and shared what she likes about him.

“He says things that make me feel good, he covers my ears when there’s a certain noise I don’t like,” she said.

Abbey also demonstrated the effort she put into caring for Isaacman, when Christine revealed that her daughter memorized the 24 names of his entire stuffed animal collection within the first week of dating him.

Host Paul C. Brunson noted, “Love is an action, and by you memorizing those tells me, Abbey, how much you love David.”

Abbey simply replied with, “Yeah.”

But she later hesitated when Brunson assumed Isaacman treated her like a princess.

“Yeah, sometimes,” she said nonchalantly as Brunson laughed. “He’s done it before.”

Christine shrugged, “Four years into [the relationship], so.”

The beloved couple broke up after nearly five years together, the US Sun reported Thursday. Netflix has followed their relationship on the hit series — which revolves around people on the autism spectrum looking for love — since their first date in Season 1.

What do you think? Post a comment.

According to the US Sun, Isaacman, 31, and Abbey, 27, broke up because they didn’t see eye to eye on getting married.

“She was ready years ago, he still needed time,” the insider said.

The now-exes did candidly discuss marriage during Season 4 of “Love on the Spectrum.” Abbey admitted she wanted “to be a bride so badly,” but said that she feared getting divorced like her parents and didn’t want to “rush” down the aisle.

Meanwhile, Isaacman noted of possibly taking the next step with Abbey, “We can only be engaged whenever the time is right.”
