Rachel Lindsay tells Bachelorette Becca to ‘get away’ from Colton ASAP
By Ruby Maxwell
Rachel Lindsay has a few things to say about Bachelorette contestant Colton Underwood. Bottom line? She’s not a fan.
When Bachelorette Becca Kufrin went on her hump day camel date with Colton Underwood last week, it was clear their chemistry was forced. Colton was saying what he thought Becca wanted to hear. He’s Jean Blanc 2.0 dropping the old, “I’m falling in love with you” because he had nothing else to say.
I’m not the only one who isn’t buying what Colton’s selling. Former Bachelorette Rachel Lindsay went on a rant about the camel date, going so far as to advise Becca to “get as far away from Colton as possible.”

Prior to Rachel’s rant about Colton, shared her thoughts about two of Becca’s frontrunners, including Garrett and Blake. In her Us Weekly blog, Rachel said Becca is “blindly captivated by Garrett,” something that’s keeping her from getting to know Blake. (note – Blake is Rachel’s favorite!)
This week, Rachel blogged about Colton and she didn’t hold back…
During their one-on-one date, Colton revealed told Becca he has only said, “I love you” to one girl.
He went on to say that he doesn’t take the phrase “I’m falling in love” lightly. Then he went on to tell Becca he was falling in love with her. (C’mon now, Colton … that’s bu**sh*t!)
“So, I love you’s are sacred to you yet you conveniently drop the phrase in a couple of weeks?” Rachel wrote in her Us Weekly blog, “Well that was a quick change of events. I feel like Colton is saying the routine and “right” things with no passion behind them. His eyes are saying one thing and his mouth is saying another.”
Rachel went on to give some sage advice to Becca:
“I want Becca to hop on whatever is faster, that big bus or the camel, and get as far away from Colton as possible. We don’t believe you, Colton.”
Considering Colton was spotted on a date with Tia while filming Bachelor in Paradise, we know that he told Becca he was “falling in love” because he didn’t know what else to say. Or he wanted her to keep him around for a bit because he wants to become the next Bachelor — after he dumps Tia in Paradise.
Okay, I’m just assuming that’s what he’s thinking, but clearly, he wasn’t speaking the truth during his date with Becca.
