She said: 'I [had] just recently finished a stint on Celebrity Big Brother in the UK and I think I turned 19 on the show and I was in the house for about a month and it was the first time I was away from Doug.
'After I got off the show, I was like, ''You know what, I need to sow my wild oats. I need to go out. I need to date. I need to screw," so that was basically the primary reason for that separation and we were separated for about a year maybe,' she said.
But she conceded that after getting it out of her system she realized that Doug was an 'incredible man.'
'I think when a couple faces a difficult trial in life together, whatever that may be, it either tears you apart or brings you together,' she said.

'And I think right now we're kind of in the kind of crossroad point where we're trying to figure it out.'
Courtney's mother Krista Keller - who originally gave her blessing to the union - recently admitted she know thinks it was a mistake.
'I don't think it is a very healthy [relationship]. I don't think it has turned into a healthy one,' Krista told the site.
'I don't think it is a very healthy [relationship]. I don't think it has turned into a healthy one,' Krista told Radar Online last month.
'It was very unnatural for her to be with someone that much older and I think the problems played themselves out.'
