- Ed "Big Ed" Brown said that he and Elizabeth "Liz" Woods first broke up because of "timing."
- Brown and Woods just got engaged, but had split on "90 Day Fiancé: The Single Life" season one.
Ed "Big Ed" Brown said he and his now-fiancée Elizabeth "Liz" Woods previously broke up because of "timing."
Brown and Woods met on the "90 Day Fiancé" spin-off "The Single Life," and began dating shortly thereafter. They later split but reconnected while filming season two, which premieres Friday on Discovery +.
"The timing wasn't right and it was rushed - we both rushed things," Brown told People of his breakup with Woods.
According to Brown, he "tried to move too fast" in his relationship with the 29 year-old, and also "wasn't a good person."
"I wasn't a good boyfriend. I didn't treat Liz like she deserved to be treated," Brown said.
Woods, for her part, said she "struggled" quite a bit following her breakup with Brown, and "went through a really bad depression stage."
Despite their significant age difference (Brown is 56 and Woods is 29) and relationship troubles, the couple recently announced their engagement.
"We are each other's forever, and, yes, we are engaged," the couple previously told Insider.
Brown told People that after his split with Woods in the first season of "The Single Life," he realized she was the one he was meant to be with.
"About a month before we got back together, I realized that I really didn't appreciate who she was and I don't want to love anybody else," he said. "And never in a million years did I think that I would ever be together with Liz - it's just surreal."
