What Ali Fedotowsky Would Change About The Bachelor Franchise

“I felt so horrible about that,” she stated. “And if I’m doing that, imagine what these girls—like all the threads online about them, comparing them, who likes who better. I feel bad from a viewer’s standpoint of all the viewers comparing them.”

Social media even changed Ali’s mind about her 6-year-old daughter Molly‘s future, having once been open to the idea of her appearing on The Bachelor one day. She told Daily Pop, “Now when I get asked that question, my answer is ‘no.’ I would not want her to go on the show, and it’s just ’cause of social media. It’s so hard for these girls.”

Hear how Ali—who also shares 4-year-old son Riley with husband Kevin Manno—tackles family mealtime with Old El Paso’s new Tortilla Pockets in the full interview above.

The Bachelorette airs Mondays at 8 p.m. on ABC.
