I saw the story. The bolded is not true. They just came back from a party and still very hyper. Angie was asking what should they do while they eat their pizza, Bryan suggested maybe they do another instagram live, Rachel replied saying if they did she would not talk because she was doing all the talking last time. The whole convo was just 3 sentences , I would not call that planning. Their voices were raised a bit but it was more from being tipsy and hyped from all the partying rather than anger.

Exactly this! Thanks Dessler.

Pretty much sums it up I think!

idk imo it gave me the 1% suspicion that they might be faking it to make money which explains why they're moving to la. I admit this is far fetched but still... jmo

I mean I don't think they're faking their relationship but this conversation is just another little tidbit on how ridiculous and delusional they're getting imo. As if the move to "California" and leaving their careers isn't enough imo.

I don't think the "fight" (heated discussion?) was a big deal, but yeah...they just seem obsessed with their fans and social media and how they appear and all that. Every couple is to an extent, but there's usually a balancing act with one person who doesn't care as much (like what Shawn is for Kaitlyn) or the couple being back in their normal hometown, so they feel more grounded and have good people around them. Their IG live was cute, but I'm just not feeling very optimistic about them. IMO.

also does anyone else think rachel has changed a lot from nicks season? imo its like two totally different people except her love of sports is consistent

So basically nothing. Next!

Amazing can they have silly arguments more often like any normal couple.

I don't think she has changed "alot", but one this is for sure, both she and Bryan are loving the fame and spotlight. imo

This is what blows my mind, esp from Rachel who seemed like such an anomaly in this world during Nick's season airing.

I can't fathom what they plan to do in LA but I can't wait to find out about these new and exciting projects .

To be fair, Rachel also has done lots of charity things after filming. Raising money for ACLU and Harvey victims, providing free legal advices, and both volunteering at Trusted World. It's not just party and shilling. IMO, she's the type who party hard but work harder.

It's weird, because she has legit A-lister friends (on her sister's IG, you can see that Kevin Durant and Andre 3000 were at her birthday party last year; she goes way back with Corey Gamble; Antonio Cromartie'a daughter calls her auntie) and she never brags about it or displays it on her social media, like you would expect someone chasing fame and obsessed with that lifestyle to do. She seemed to take more pride in her work and charity than her connections and money and all that. It just seems like some people really start to believe their own hype after a while and become addicted to the validation and attention they get. I initially felt like a disappointed parent, but now I'm just embracing their ridiculousness. At least, I can rely on them for good snark material! IMO.
