Bachelor Nation has been speaking out against Chris Harrison s
Extra interview with Rachel Lindsay, during which the longtime host defended the racist actions of speculated winner Rachael Kirkconnell. In case you missed the interview or simply didn t want to give Chris the views, he called (1) fans who were holding Rachael accountable for attending an Antebellum-themed plantation party the “woke police,” (2) tried to justify Rachael s racist behavior by saying things were different in 2018 (no, they weren t), and (3) was rude and disrespectful to Rachel Lindsay.
Chris Harrison ended up temporarily stepping down as host of
The Bachelor, and many cast members have since spoken out supporting Rachel and denouncing Chris defense of racism. If you have 14 minutes, here s the video of Rachel Lindsay s interview with Harrison, or feel free to skip over it and read straight from Bachelor Nation alums below.
