On Bryan's podcast (and Nick's podcast), Rachel talked about the night after they stopped filming she and Bryan just sat and talked for hours and realized they have the same morning sports routine, love r&b music, horror movies, etc. and I don't think any other guy would've matched that. He's also the calm to her fire. He's perfect for her

Brian just sits there and let’s her speak. You can tell he’s not big on drama and would prefer to stay out of it. That’s why they make the perfect match. I think if they were both alike it would never work because they might knock heads.

At the end of the day Bryan had to maturity to understand that Rachel was part of a show and what he had with Rachel was a seperate entity. In my opinion that's why they've worked out and some others haven't. He must be a very confident man because I was more into the other guy than i was him and so was a lot of people and yet he stuck around.

I can't help but compare Pilot Pete's season finale with Rachel's. Rachel clearly defined whom she wanted before her season started. She wanted someone who knew what he wanted out of life and wanted that with HER, secure, ready for marriage. When the show ended she picked exactly that description. Pilot Pete said he wanted someone who would love him the way he did Hannah B on her season. He chose the one person who wasn't fully into him. Rachel could define and claim it for herself. That's maturity and she is happy. Am sad for the pilot because he is such a sweet guy but he is not firm. That's just my view of course.

@ClairRedfeild 4 жыл бұрын

Rachel was the most successful and mature bachelorette. She didn’t give in to the drama, and knew what she wanted. We need more mature woman on the show unlike these 23 year olds like Hannah b. Her season was an absolute train wreck

I feel others can say their ex names with ease but she doesn’t and really doesn’t have to. But I hope she can make peace with her time on the show so she can look back at it with out always feeling so upset.

I know Kaitlyn Bristowe went through a similar thing with Nick and Shawn. Not as much that she got backlash for picking Shawn, but she got backlash for sleeping with one guy early, and obviously Shawn and Nick did not have a good relationship so for the press to continue asking about Nick was hard on them

For viewers, we watch the final decision and form our own opinion because we really don't have to live with the person you have picked. Its the same as giving "drive-by parental advice". You see a mother on the street shouting at her kid and you judge her for those 30seconds she lost her cool... never knowing what she endured an hour before that. But when we rewind and look back at episodes past, and we see that all the signs were that its Bryan that Rachel was really consistent with, then nothing else matters. He always got the rose. He got more one-on-ones. He always maintained she was his wife. The evidence was all there BUT most people got lost in the drama and never really watched for the romance. I think that producers are partly to blame. Especially when they choose to air more drama than romance. Yes, its TV but its still people's lives. I personally cannot tell you one romantic thing that happened in Pilot Pete's season. NOT ONE!

Did you watch the same show I did? Or were you tricked by the deceptive editing of her goodbye to the pretnder? When Bryan came to a rose ceremony without a rose, he was pinned first every time but one, and that time, the pretender received his rose after Bryan. On the largest group date, Bryan received the group date rose, even though Rachel had spent much more time with the pretender. Bryan received both the confidence date and the luxury date. He is the only one she introduced to the friends who'd inveigled her to apply to the franchise. Bryan is only person she declared liking for immediately after their first meeting. I reckon that adds up to overwhelming preference; definitely not second choice.
