- Jul 14, 2015
AceShowbiz - Kaitlyn Bristowe got closer to her three remaining suitors in the latest episode of "The Bachelorette" before picking the final two. The Monday, July 13 outing, however, picked up where the last episode left off to show Shawn confronting Nick.
Shawn questioned Nick's motive for joining the show. Nick also asked Shawn's intentions, accusing him of bragging about he and an unnamed country star having sex with the same girl in the same night.
The drama aside, Kaitlyn had a date with Ben H. in Galway, Ireland. They went horseback riding through countryside before going on a picnic, during which Ben H. told Kaitlyn, "I am falling in love with you." He also revealed that he had just turned 26 during the taping, noting that age wasn't a matter to him though Kaitlyn is four years older than him.
Later in the night, they headed to the fantasy suite. In the morning, Kaitlyn told the camera, "I had a great time with Ben last night. We had a lot of fun. I think I got a half hour of sleep." She additionally confessed, "I didn't expect to fall in love with him."
Next was a date with Shawn. They went golfing dressed like "huge dorks." Kaitlyn claimed she won and decided to play "Truth Or Dare". She dared him to strip naked on the golf course and he agreed to do it.
After he wore his clothes again, they talked about Nick. Shawn admitted, "I just went over to his place and I told him I think he's an a**hole, because he is." Despite the uncomfortable dinner, they spent the night together.
When Shawn returned to his room, he and Nick got into another argument during which Shawn called Nick "worse than I ever thought," adding, "I don't care if I ever speak to you for the rest of my life... get the f**k out!"
Before the rose ceremony, Kaitlyn told host Chris Harrison that Nick and Shawn's "immature" feud affected how she felt about them, and that "Ben would make a great husband." She then met the three guys and chose to send home Ben H.
Accepting the decision like a gentleman, Ben H. said before leaving, "I felt like I showed you who I was, and there's nothing about you or the situation that I thought couldn't work. When I'm with you, life is good. ... It will not be easy not seeing you." He also told her before getting into the limo, "You look great tonight, by the way."
Kaitlyn said she felt "crushed" to send home Ben H., and although she wasn't comfortable being in the middle of two feuding guys, she believed that she's in love.
Next, Kaitlyn met Nick's family. Nick told his mom that he's in love with Kaitlyn and he was "99 percent sure" that Kaitlyn also loved him. Shawn's father was worried his son was simply "caught up in the moment." The family accepted her well though.
Shawn's family also gave their thumbs up although initially questioning their relationship. Kaitlyn said she felt more pressure to choose between the two guys because because her emotions were "so intense with two people. ... And now people's families care so much."
Next week, the eliminated contestants return for the "Men Tell All" special.
