Top 3: The Bachelorette Season 16, episode 7 rankings

Another drama-filled episode of The Bachelorette Season 16 had our men composing love songs, eating and drinking less than desirable items, and spilling out their deepest truths all in the hopes of impressing Tayshia.

The Bachelorette Season 16, Episode 7 had secret missions, a surprise Chris Harrison hang out, and a little TMI broadcast over the hotel loudspeaker. Awkward, but entertaining to say the least.

But who really put themselves out there and made it into our Top 3 power rankings on this week’s episode of The Bachelorette Season 16?

Let’s find out below!

#1: Ivan

It’s should be no surprise that the man who got the one-on-one date with our girl takes the number one spot this week in our rankings for The Bachelorette Season 16. Ivan had the quality alone time, got the rose, and was responsible for what I can only imagine is every hotel maid’s worst nightmare.

After singing his heart out on the love song challenge to win the coveted one-on-one time with Tayshia, Ivan was swept back to childhood fun once he reached Tayshia’s suite. The pair played a rousing game of The Floor is Lava, had a feather-filled pillow fight, and gorged themselves on room service with the biggest ice cream sundae I have ever seen. Did anyone else notice it melting all over the place??

Of course, it wasn’t all fun and games as the pair got serious with chats about their upbringings, the Black Lives Matter movement, and the struggles they have each had dealing with these issues. Ivan said all the right things and comforted Tayshia and reassured her that she could trust him. These two are absolutely adorable together and I think all of Bachelor Nation was swooning throughout the date. I think Ivan will definitely be around for a long time.

#2: Ben

With no Tayshia time last week, our man Ben made up for it this week and slid into our Bachelorette’s heart, her hotel suite after hours, and the number two spot in the rankings.

Ben knew he was maybe, probably going home after he wasn’t bold enough to make moves and get alone time with Tayshia on the group date so he decided to take matters into his own hands. Utilizing his old army training, Ben embarked on a secret mission to sneak over and see Tayshia and prove his worth in the battle for her heart.

The mission was a wild success as they chatted, sucked face, and enjoyed strawberries and champagne that Ben sneakily arranged to have delivered to Tayshia’s room. It helps when the producers are on your side, ya know what I mean, Ed?

Ben’s bold moves paid off, he got a rose and successfully became too good for any of us in the process. Ben, we do not deserve you.

#3: Zac

Last but not least in our top 3 this week, we have the shy man who opened himself up under a canopy of stars in the hot tub. Yes, Zac C. proved he could be vulnerable and actually into this whole find love bit and takes our third spot.

The Bachelorette herself told Zac that he seemed shy and was holding back once they were snuggled up cozily in the hot tub, but Zac took this as a challenge and laid his feelings out on the line. He even revealed that he is “crushing on Tayshia” and the pair sealed this emotional progress with a kiss. Or rather many, many kisses.

Zac received the group date rose, showed his age with some attempted youth slang, and remains one to watch in the weeks to come. Zac, we are for sure in our feels about you and our girl, Tayshia.

With four brokenhearted bros sent home, the competition for Tayshia’s love is finally getting more serious!

Tune in next week to see if our top 3 can hold their positions or if some new romance takes their place!
