Chris Harrison says TheBachelor finale is 'so unexpected, so unprecedented, there is not a single person who knows how Peter's journey will end. Not even Peter.'
ended on a serious note Monday night when host Chris Harrison invited former Bachelorette Rachel Lindsay to the reunion show's set to discuss the social media hate that has been aimed at the female contestants of the ABC franchise in recent years.
She continued, "When I was asked to be the Bachelorette, I knew it would be hard. I knew I would get even more hate and criticism. But I wanted to pave a way for women who look like me who hadn't been represented in this role on this show. But sometimes I feel like my efforts are in vain because it seems to be getting so much worse. I feel like you guys see us talk about the hate we receive, but you have no idea what it actually is.
"I'm shaking as I'm reading this because it's shocking, it's uncomfortable," said Lindsay. "I know how uncomfortable it is for you to see. Just imagine how uncomfortable it is to get this in your comments and your DMs every day, every week, every month. And that's just a tip of the iceberg." Hightower also called the on-air discussion a pivotal moment for the franchise: "Until someone like me, who’s been through these things says something about it, you don't understand it. You can say, 'Don't bully, don't bully.' But when there are messages and you see the women up there and you see the color of our skin and why we're being attacked, that when it becomes, 'OK, this is real.
