The Bachelorette journey of Rachel Recchia might still be ongoing. Aven Jones, Rachel’s runner-up, entered the stage shortly after Tino Franco and Rachel reconnected on stage at Tuesday’s live finale.
Aven emerged and informed Rachel while Tino sat by and observed “You don’t really deserve any of this, and this is difficult. I simply wanted to see if you might want to leave so we can catch up.”
Nothing could make me happier, she said.
Rachel and Aven exited the stage together as a dumbfounded Tino watched. We can examine that, Aven could be heard saying to Rachel as the camera rapidly cut to the two backstage.
After Tino admitted to kissing another woman while he and Rachel were engaged, Aven abruptly showed up.
Before Tino became Rachel’s lone suitor, Aven and Rachel called it quits. They only broke up because Aven admitted he might not be ready to propose, even though he wanted to carry on their romance after the programme.
The Bachelorette did not reappear on stage for the finale, much to the surprise of announcer Jesse Palmer, who repeatedly emphasised her absence. It appears that Rachel and Aven have a lot to talk about.
