E624 Reality Recap with Emma Slater Plus...

Nick Viall
About this episode

Welcome back to The Viall Files: Reality Recap Edition! We are joined by Emma Slater to break down this week’s episode of The Bachelorette. We first speak with Emma about Dancing With The Stars and cover pop culture topics and celebrities such as Harry Styles, Kevin Costner, and Rachel Zegler. We discuss the Men Tell All drama - from the men posting cryptic messages in their Instagram captions, to Xavier having to confront Charity after their infidelity conversation, to Brayden giving Jesse earrings. We also cover the reveal of our Golden Bachelor Gerry and our initial thoughts of the season. 

“It’s hard for me to lean on people, because I feel like a burden.”
