What Went Down During The Bachelor’s Rose Ceremony From Hell

Rachel, meanwhile, was no less disheveled.

“I feel really heartbroken,” she said through tears. “I literally never thought there could be a chance he could be in love with three of us. In love! It feels like it meant nothing. I’m just supposed to get my heart broken for the chance that he might love me a little bit more than others?”

Well, this is The Bachelor…

Clayton eventually sat down with Rachel, as well, in an attempt to clarify the situation.

“The love that I feel for you is not the love that I feel for Gabby. It’s different,” he said. “That’s all I can say. I know it doesn’t make sense. But it’s different. It’s not the same. You are two different people. I have different feelings in different ways.”

Somehow this is only getting more confusing. 

With Rachel’s heart on the floor, Clayton vowed that he was still in love with her and—surprise!—he wanted her to meet his family, who was waiting nearby.

Finally, it was time for the rose ceremony itself. Rachel was up first, who accepted Clayton’s rose with nary a second thought. Up next, of course, was Gabby. When Clayton asked if she accepted the rose, she said “I can’t, I’m sorry” and walked out.
