Bachelor Nation Buzz
Bachelor Nation was thrown for a loop when Matt James tweeted that he was looking for a therapist after a brutal finale on The Bachelor. As fans will recall, James ultimately split from his chosen finalist Rachael Kirkconnell after photos of her attending an antebellum plantation party resurfaced.
Amid the outrage that erupted, hosted Chris Harrison stepped down after defending her. Bachelor sources tell TMZ that producers are checking in with James and take the mental health of contestants seriously.

Emmanuel Acho, who took on Harrison’s hosting duties for the After the Final Rose, hit up Instagram to reveal a moment viewers didn’t see. He said of a conversation between runner-up Michelle Young and Kirkconnell, “I was talking to Michelle early on and I could sense the heartbreak over her loss of a former lover in Matt, but I could also sense the despair over her loss of a former friend in Rachael based upon those photos that have surfaced about Rachael.”
