We were pretty shook when we heard the news that Paris Hilton broke off her engagement to Chris Zylka.

We had a few questions regarding the split, and luckily they were all answered when Paris Hilton herself appeared on The Talk yesterday.

She revealed that she has been “doing really good” in spite of calling off the engagement.

“I’m just really having my ‘me time,'” Paris said on the show.

“I just feel that when I fall in love, I fall in love fast and hard and it was this whirlwind romance.”

The 37-year-old socialite explained that her former fiancé didn’t necessarily do anything wrong to warrant the wedding being called off, and it was more to do with her heart not being in it…

“I’ve always been obsessed with Disney stories and love stories and I thought it was going to be my happy ending, and I just realized after time it wasn’t the right decision,” she revealed.

The heart wants what it wants. Or doesn’t want. We get that!

We may have been surprised by the split, but that wasn’t the case for the people around them. It’s now being reported that the wedding was already pushed back, and Paris had “cold feet” right from the start…

“No one is shocked and they all knew once she pushed the wedding, that something was definitely up,” a source close to the couple told E! News.

“They had a great run and they really loved each other, but she knew he was not her forever guy and could not go through the whole process while having these feelings.”

This doesn’t mean that we won’t see Paris Hilton walk down the aisle in the future, as a fairy-tale wedding is still something she desperately wants…

“No one thought a wedding was really going to happen. Paris wants a wedding and children but not necessarily a life with Chris,” another source added.

We wonder if Chris Zylka will open up publically about the split too…
