Agreed, but when you sign up for this show you open yourself up to criticism and being held to a higher standard. The body is a reflection of the soul, and this really isn't looking good. I suspect it's a big fake smile she's putting on, but I think with Becca we'll never know who she really is. All IMO.

JMO.

There's no reason for me at this point to put her in high praise because she hasn't done anything that hasn't been done before. All previous 'ettes have loving SM pics of their friends and family. I have seen many SM pics leaked where for the most part they are happy and smiling during filming. For the most part they all went through a messy F2-F3-F4 whatever breakup with the lead, JoJo/Andi/Ali and for the most part they all got over it quickly, like a few weeks quickly.

I have my opinions of her during the last season, she was nothing special for me and to me appeared to try too hard. I'm hoping she has a good season and makes good decisions. I'm also curious to see if Millsy's comments about more so called unedited filming comes to fruition and if Becca will have a choice in the matter.

The Bachelor and The Bachelorette are TV SHOWS, it’s a business. The Bachelor Franchise’s 1st priority is to make the show as successful as possible so that’s exactly what the guys and girls are signing up for! I think what happens is when people sign up for the show they don’t actually realize this though … I know I didn’t … I actually didn’t realize this until AFTER the show!

Secondly, what happened to Becca totally sucks, I can’t imagine feeling so betrayed and heartbroken … but I’m SO FRICKIN excited for her to the next BACHELORETTE!!!! Congrats BECCA!! But back to what Arie did to Becca and my honest thoughts on it … the show itself really messes with your head and you’re under a lot of pressure and you’re going through it all with a bunch of producers and cameras in front of you … and the reality is, sometimes they help you, and sometimes they help the show. Obviously, I wasn’t behind the scenes and I don’t know what happened with the whole live breakup ordeal but it COULD be possible that this was all set up from the very beginning … Arie may have WANTED to choose Lauren but someone could have convinced him to choose Becca … again, there is a lot of pressure and it’s a huge mind game!

Just like real life, sometimes people are kind of messed up when it comes to relationships, they don’t know who they’re supposed to be with and they get pressured easily by other people … they are the blind leading the blind … and that was totally me!! Thank god I have Justin now!!! But then some people are so clear-minded on what they want and they make clear decisions and don’t let their heart mess with their head!! Being unsure or indecisive about love doesn’t make you a bad person, I think Arie has good intentions but maybe he isn’t the best at navigating these emotions!! Many guys (and girls!) are like this, especially in their 20’s and early 30’s!!

Arie made a mistake and he decided to fix it. A lot of people wouldn’t even have the balls to do this!! This take a lot of courage and bravery to change a mistake like this and I can pretty much guarantee you that if he had the choice to break up with Becca in private he would have done so!! But remember, he is in a CONTRACT! No one wants to break up with someone on camera, it’s already awkward enough but do you think The Bachelor would have wanted this done off camera?? Hell no!! So, we all get to watch the good, the bad and the ugly … and it’s kind of crazy that we are humans like to see this sort of thing … it’s a bit heartbreaking! Gah!!

He links to an IG posting with multiple photos, the 5th one shows Becca and a dark haired guy in the water.  I don't know about bringing the photos over -- his IG account is private, but this posting is viewable through the tweet, so can it be brought over?
