Since Kaitlyn already addressed the issue of the early sex by saying she regretted only the timing, did she regret the timing twice?  Makes no sense.  And to be honest, if she had early sex with the only 2 guys she was at all interested in, as the article claims, what's to regret, as nobody else had a chance anyway, sex or no sex.

There are other things in the article that aren't true or are exaggerations.  For one, I seriously doubt that, once the producers arranged with Nick to be available to join the show, they were not fully intending to bring him on regardless of how many, or few, guys Kaitlyn connected with.

I agree with both comments that I bolded, both because of things that aren't true but seem plausible to a casual reader or viewer - for example not many would know how long before Kaitlyn ever met Shawn they arranged for Nick to be on standby to come on the show and would believe that Nick came on to hide the relationship with Shawn.

That said - don't we have SCs that show Shawn at Kaitlyn's hotel room door? And someone who appears to be Shawn running naked across a golf course? We haven't seen any of that yet and we are very nearly about to leave Texas, though I suppose it could be possible for a late night visit while still in Texas ... So maybe the hotel sex could have been with Shawn because the SCs seem to link the hotel room visit to him, and the 1-1 date could have been with Nick because the SCs also seem to link to him.

I'm wondering when Kaitlyn saw her action as a "mistake". Was it once she realized Nick wasn't the person she wanted to be engaged to? It's not like she got caught up in the moment inviting him back to her hotel suite and all that jazz. She was fully aware of what she was doing and how it would impact other relationships. Or was she just too tipsy to realize? She is 30 years-old, not 18. Last season I knew Kaitlyn was a free-spirit but her lack of respect for the other bachelor's just blows my mind. Puts a damper on the whole season. JMO.

I mean, hooking up with both pre-fs does make sense because you'd think Shawn would bail otherwise since it would seem he's f2 at that point. Oh man. This is depressing.

It's the season that keeps on giving. LOL. Really wish I had not been so sucked in by that one-on-one- with K and S but I was and I guess I have to watch the rest of the season to see how things go down.

Yeah, I find that article pretty plausible actually. It just seems strange that she would go all the way with Nick on a date but not Shawn who she seems crazy about. I wouldn't be surprised if she found a way to have sex with Shawn in Texas and that's what gets revealed next episode, maybe during a heated discussion between Kait and Shawn. Or she has date sex with Nick and then when Shawn comes to confront her at the end of the episode, she has sex with him as well to reassure him.

That's what makes the article plausible to me as well. It should have been obvious to all of us (and any and all of her guys who made any sort of effort to know Kaitlyn) that Kaitlyn was going to have sex with all the guys in the FD - at least she would with any of them who could be a contender. So really all this article says that's "new" is that she didn't wait until the FS for her top two choices, she took advantage of opportunities as they presented themselves to her. Not so far-fetched to me.

Yeah, that's why so many people were divided on pre-FS sex guy was. I am just wondering if they
would reveal that she had sex with both in the upcoming episode. The other tabloids and RS seem
not to have to brought this up either.

Doesn't that assume that Shawn actually found out about pre-FS sex with Nick, though? I'm not entirely sure he does before the FS date. Although that might explain why three guys left at week sex and were shown crying. I can just see it "OMG, you're having sex with everyone but me! I can't stand for that, I'm out of here!"

Is that what we're calling it now?  How appropriate!

In retrospect, it actually makes sense for Kaitlyn to test drive both of them ASAP if she really knew from early on that it was between Shawn and Nick and only them.  But if that's how it went down, why the need to tell any of the rest?  YMMV, but in that case, what they don't know won't hurt them, and by the time they might have found out, they would be well out of the bubble and I doubt it would bother any of them anymore. Unless of course the producers forced/coerced her to amp up the drama.  Which brings me to another question, if true, which one did she fess up to?  And did she tell Nick about Shawn and Shawn about Nick?

It's like "shark week"... Almost as gruesome.

It seems to me that someone is trying to rewrite history.  But, for who.. Kaitlyn, Shawn, Shawn's family and friends, or the viewers?

Does Shawn have another one on one date in Killarney.  The article claims it was after her one-on-one.  Meanwhile, not sure by the wording if the article means both cases happened fairly early on or just the hotel sex (which I would assume is Nick)?

Could also mean that she slept with Shawn on his one on one in Texas, and then slept with Nick on his one on one in Ireland.

I agree with this. It wasn't shown on purpose to build up her tryst with Nick after their 1/1. After Nick's 1/1, tptb were wringing their hands with excitement. They had K right where they wanted her. MF had to be beside himself at this point. I'm wondering to what degree they manipulated Shawn and K to get the ending they wanted. I do believe K wasn't leaning towards a proposal at FRC. I'm sure MF instructions were..."handlers make it happen." She had to be emotionally spent.
