Separation Anxiety

Our Love Stories series continues on the countdown to Valentine’s Day with one of Amy & T.J.’s favorite couples, Ben Higgins and Jessica Clarke Higgins. The former Bachelor star and his wife sit down for an honest and grounded conversation about marriage, communication, and parenthood. Ben and Jess joke about who really said “I love you” first, reflect on how early couples counseling helped them navigate very different conflict styles, and share why their relationship has always felt safe - even through long distance, marriage adjustments, and the chaos of a new puppy. Now parents to a baby girl, Jess opens up about falling even more in love watching Ben step into fatherhood, while both agree that a baby doesn’t fix a relationship - it simply requires more teamwork and intention.
