"I would rather tell Bre and let Bre tell her. And that’s what happened. But the way that it went down was not the greatest," Amanda added.

She said she was hurt about Chelsea thinking she wanted to "ruin her or her life," clarifying that she wasn't a malicious person. Amanda added she was a kind person and she cared about everything. She went on to that her passing the information on to Bre didn't come from a vindictive or evil place.
