Re: Rachel & Bryan Abasolo - Bachelorette 13 - Discussion - #3

I follow Whitney's bf on IG and he posted a story of them out at a bar watching march madness and having fun & this just occured to me, did they seriously interrupt their fun outing to argue and be mad that E! didn't post a picture of brachel in a meaningless article?

I think it was brought to her attention due to the number of people tagging her in the comment section.

E news has shaded Rachel and Bryan from the beginning while they worship the TOG, its been a common trend of theirs. especially in some of their past insta stories . #sosalty. So i can understand Rachel feeling a way and commenting.

If they are going to mention two 'ettes that are engaged, then they should have included the 3rd one IMHO I don't care how popular or unpopular, or how much or little discussion they've had about weddings, it's all subjective. Media shouldn't be showing favouritism especially when they have clearly done so in the past with Rachel and Bryan and excluded them.

Even though I'm not crazy about Rachel's history of responding to SM, I have to agree with Rachel on this one and the manner in which she responded.

Yeah I saw that when it was posted and thought it was odd and very transparent to exclude the only POC lead and her fiance.

E! is pathetic tho so I am all for everyone including Rachel calling them out for their actions. JMO

Someone pointed out that even in the article itself, they only included the pictures of the white couples (Jojo/Jordan, Clare/Benoit, and Arie/Lauren) and didn't include pictures of either Bryan/Rachel or Derek/Taylor. Not accusing them of anything, but very suspicious, IMO.

Wow, you are absolutely right! http://www.eonline.com/news/920740/which-of-the-bachelor-franchise-s-6-engaged-couples-will-get-married-first

No wonder she’s upset! Double shades! IMO.

It does seem silly... but I’m not going to fault Rachel too much for being hurt. I can see how my feelings would be hurt in a similar situation.

All should have been included, IMO. Not very nice.

by Diana Sat Mar 17, 2018 1:57 pm

I am a fan of them but have called them out before for their OTT's at time (IMO) but this isn't one of them to me. no idea

E! has been pretty crappy to Bryan especially so I can totally understand why Rachel said something and she wasn't over the top. I thought it was funny.

I don't know who posted the IG post and/or article, so I can't accuse them of being racist but I can definitely see it being suspicious and tone deaf because they knew exactly what they were doing by listed the other ettes who are engaged and Arie and ignoring the lead before him. It wasn't just a mistake.

All JMHO

Am I missing something? Rachel and Bryan are included in the article. scratch

The point is that they chose to not include them in the IG post (why? what reason would they have for that imo) and that inside the article they only included pics of the white couples. NOT A GOOD LOOK IMO
