He further stated that their maturity levels didn't match. The Summer House cast member also mentioned that they were both at different stages of their lives and that Joe had to work on himself more to become deserving of Danielle:

"I just don't think I'm in the position as a 28-year-old, who works in a night club, to be the caliber of man for Danielle Olivera, who is just, I think, ahead of me in life in a lot of ways. As far as like, maturity, where she stands in her career. And I'm just in this tiny little quaint town of Charleston and she's like, running laps in the big city, like she always has."

Bradley opened up about his relationship, disclosing that Summer House's Danielle also knew that their relationship had run its course. The two have no bad blood between them and have ended things mutually. Joe considers her his best friend and still wants to stay in contact with her. For him, it was the "right person wrong time" kind of situation, stating that at this stage of his life, "he is not the right guy for her." He said:

"I don't think at this stage in my life, I'm the right guy for her, so I think it was best for us to end things on good terms."

There is a possibility that Joe and Danielle might get back together in the future, but as of now, they have decided to stay friends. As of now, Danielle hasn't said anything about this situation.
