“We are young,” Rowan said during an interview with Decider. “I think people put a lot of pressure on her to maybe have it all figured out.” However, Rowan believed Ariana needed time to discover what she wanted.
“If I were her, I probably would choose every single one of those guys,” Rowan admitted. She said each relationship could teach Ariana something different. Rowan believed experience was an important part of growing up.
“She has to learn lessons from some relationships, grow from others, and make mistakes,” Rowan said. “That’s how you figure it out.” The Next Gen NYC star made clear that she was not judging her friend.
Rowan also revealed that Ariana was the first friend she made. She said Ariana helped her become part of a new friend group. Their friendship appeared to remain strong despite the dating drama.
“She’s such an amazing girl,” Rowan said of Ariana. “I want nothing but the best for her.” She also encouraged her friend to continue putting herself first.
Rowan said Ariana ultimately needed to make her own decisions. She believed outside opinions should not determine Ariana’s romantic choices. The reality star seemed confident her friend would eventually find clarity.
“Nobody else’s opinion should matter,” Rowan added. For now, Rowan appeared happy to support Ariana as she navigated life and love. She believed making mistakes was simply part of figuring everything out.
