The eighth week of The Bachelorette Season 19 had its fair share of heroes and villains!

Welcome to the eighth week of The Bachelorette Season 19! No matter how you look at it, I truly believe that the new two leading ladies, the Bachelorettes themselves, Gabby Windey and Rachel Recchia, will do a fantastic job. I say this despite whatever other people have to say about it. It’ll be interesting to see how this double lead thing works out!

More for the future? We shall see, folks, we shall see!

Be sure to let us know in the comments about your thoughts on week eight…now!

Okay, let’s talk…

So this week was the Men Tell All episode. There isn’t a whole lot to elaborate on, but all I can say is this: there were some tears shed, some laughs had, and some pretty boring bloopers this year (they used to make me cry laugh, but now I don’t even laugh, just cry…and not from laughing too hard the good way).

Okay, now, diving into the week…

The Bachelorette Season 19, Episode 8: Heroes

#1: “The Love Witch”

She was the lady (Lorelei, I believe her name was) that met up with Aven and Rachel while they were in a shop in his hometown of Salem, Massachusetts. All I can say about how much I loved her are these two things: (1) Follow your “haaat” or “hot” and (2) “can someone please help me with the table?”. Made. My. Day. And the episode for me, too, of course–haha! Nearly died laughing watching the glass table fall over and nearly break after their love spell was finished!

#2: Rachel

I never ever thought that she’d end up anywhere on this more positive side of the list, BUT…she handled herself so well with meeting Aven’s fam this week. While I still don’t consider her one of my favorites by any means, I do love that she’s super honest…you just gotta love it, right?!
