Alex shared a cryptic tweet. He was a guest on the show last year and was a big news story when the series was being cut.
“Everyone can agree that life throws some curve balls now and again. Recently I’ve felt like life has thrown me a curveball straight to my face 😵💫. At first I didn’t handle it in the best way, shutting myself in physically and emotionally. Even fitness, my passion, took a backseat to a point where it took all my willpower to get out of bed or leave the house,” he wrote alongside a gym selfie. “After a few weeks with some help from some friends, I’m learning to take some time to self reflect and take a step back, something extremely hard to do living within the NYC hustle and bustle lifestyle.”
He added: “This pic is from last year where I was in peak form mentally and physically. I’m happy that I can look back and use a past version of myself as a goal to strive for. It’s not always easy or quick, but you always come out stronger and can hopefully smile about it. #life #lifestuff #nyc #fitness #health #wellbeing #emotionalhealth #process.”
Winter HouseBravo is expected to host the return of Bravo this fall.
