Kaitlyn Bristowe has spoken up about her controversial move in the latest episode of "The Bachelorette". The 29-year old dance instructor from Vancouver, British Columbia wrote in a blog for PEOPLE in response to the backlashes she received after she had sex with one of her suitors, Nick Viall, in the episode which aired on Monday, June 22.

"Taking a relationship to an intimate level is very private to me. And that is why this is difficult as the Bachelorette. Nothing is private," she claimed. Admitting that it's "probably" not the "best idea" to have "sex with Nick in that moment," she defended herself, "...but intimacy is important to me and I don't believe the act is wrong. I got lost in the moment and maybe I shouldn't have made that choice. Hindsight is 20/20. I can't help but wonder if I waited a couple weeks and did that in the fantasy suite and didn't talk about it, would I be getting this kind of backlash?"

Still, she had regrets about it as saying, "I had other relationships, and I did feel guilt for that reason - because I cared about the other relationships I had. I can never make everyone happy at all times, and that includes myself. This is hard and it's hard to relive. I hope you can understand and appreciate my honesty."

Kaitlyn went on claiming that it's impossible to "go through this and not make some mistakes." Thus, she hoped people "not be so quick to judge."
