Bachelorette 13 - Rachel Lindsay - SM Media - *Sleuthing Spoilers* Discussion - #8

Well if "the squad" knows who Rachel picked, then plus one for Peter.  Even if they are trying to cover and play coy, why would Raven like this tweet?

Or Alexis like: https://twitter.com/carlywaddell/status/866841378067800065

There are more from them as well as the other girls.

@Carine thank you!!!

Hello everyone! I've been lurking here for a while, since Nick’s season, the first of the franchise I’ve ever watched and have since become OBSESSED. I’ve been vacillating back and forth on the outcome like everyone else. Apologies if these have already been posted, or if I’m posting them incorrectly, but a few things to mention:

I do believe all of the 'squad' know the winner.  
Dominique made a reference to Peter being “everybody’s number 1” and “not even in the running” when asked about who from Rachel’s season she would be interested in seeing if she was cast on Paradise. The entire segment is Peter-heavy, as it aired after the 1on1 date. Could be considered very revealing or not. IMO

IMO Alexis says she knows who won in the  BUILD panel at 8:24 and 11:42. She also reacts to Olivia’s comments about Peter in a way I don’t know how to interpret at 12:21

Also, Alexis oddly volunteers Bryan’s name on the Morning Breath Facebook livecast, that he would be someone hot from Rachel’s season to make out with if he went on Bachelor in Paradise. The hosts agree that he’s hot, but go on to speculate that he will go far in the competition, to which Alexis replies with several non-committal “yeahs,” IMO.  The interview is after the premiere so she certainly knows who wins by then.  She has also mentioned in this and a few other interviews how hot she thinks Bryan is, whereas she mentions Peter as “genuine,” “adorable” and “cute” on the People NOW interview. I took her tapping on the box as more of a nervous tic. It could be she brought up Peter as misdirection, but I’m not convinced, IMO.

Whatever the outcome, I humbly remain #teamgap

Rachel liked Dani M's post about 27 minutes ago. & She liked something on twitter sometime in the last 22 hrs.

Who knows with SM. If Rachel was allowed to tell the squad they are allowed to give it away with SM, then I guess TPTB have given up. Honestly, it could be. They announced Nick as bachelor before BiP ended and they announced Rachel before she was eliminated, so maybe they do not care about the ending anymore.

It will be interesting if the squad and their SM activity change the course of SM sleuthing for the show. All JMO.

I think Rachel lied to Alexis about who she picked. Especially if Bryan is F1. JMO
Or maybe not. I have no clue.

I think the squad knows who the F1 is. IMO

I didn't watch Nicks season-what is the squad?


The last contestants could be merely going off the original spoiler like everyone else. I doubt R would tell all of them. Particularly if they are doing media.

I would have a big problem if Rachel told her squad plus a few who she chose. She's a lawyer and her dad is a federal judge. Unless she didn't sign a confidentiality agreement, how could she blabber the outcome to so many? Her family, yes, but Dominique? She is not even her squad!  Was she close with Rachel even? Did they read RS spoiler? His first spoiler came out 5/17.
Same with Peter. I am really thankful for those who share their sources. I really do. But it's the same thing. Unless he didn't sign a confidentiality agreement, unless he told his family (which I think I would have done so too) who then told friends, how would people outside of immediate family know for sure?

Sorry if it rubs people the wrong way, but this is how I see it.

All Jmo.

@nd4reality Rachel has become VERY close with these girls. It's hard for me to picture a scenario where Raven, Astrid, Alexis & Whitney don't know (the squad is Kristina, Alexis, Whitney, Astrid, Rachel, Raven & Sarah)

I think Dominique knows because she watched the first episode with Rachel & I don't think Rachel was able to contain herself that first week. I know Nick's girls aren't very popular on the forum but Rachel seems to trust them and so far they haven't violated it because none of them have said anything to directly spoil the season. All JMO.

This is why they probably had to come up with a foiler.

@ReneeM  thanks.

I still doubt she would tell anyone. She is a lawyer and therefore would be even more careful. IMO

I guess who knows what will come to light eventually. Imo

@SDmom I agree with your post
