Bachelorette 16 - Clare Crawley & Tayshia Adams - Media SM - *Sleuthing Spoilers* #2

Zac admits that Tayshia makes him nervous but their time together feels "surreal" and  he can definitely see potential for love and a lasting future together. They provide each other with comfort and vulnerability.

"I tried to envision Zac being the person I'm at the altar with at the end of this, and I'm not going to lie, it didn't scare me!" Tayshia gushed to the cameras.

"He's what I've said I've been looking for -- someone who's older and more mature, someone who has life under their belt and someone who is established and super close with their family... I think we have something you just can't explain, like, we are drawn to each other."

"I am falling for Zac, absolutely, and life is so good," Tayshia added.

When announcing The Bachelorette cast on Facebook this past summer, Chris said Zac will share "a heartfelt story" with viewers.

"He has a bit of a Nick Viall vibe to him. Again, I'm not sure if that's a good thing, we'll see. But he really is a tremendous guy, and this guy has a heart of gold," Chris shared.

Chris added that Zac is "a quiet guy" but also "a sweetheart."

Sprite wrote:I don't know why they keep harping on the Nick vibe. I don't see it at all. Nick had/has such a cocky vibe and I don't get that at all from Zac.

When speaking with Access in December 2020, Harrison was asked whether Bachelor Nation fans will be happy with Adams’ ending on The Bachelorette Season 16. At first, the host revealed Adams fell in love on the show. However, he questioned whether those feelings would be reciprocated.

“Tayshia’s season gets very emotional,” Harrison said. “If you’ve watched the clips, you see her crying in the white dress and all that. These guys have gone deep, and so has Tayshia. She has fallen in love.”

He continued, “Is it going to end the way she wants it to? And you may have your answer in some of these clips that you’re seeing

Then when speaking with Entertainment Tonight, Harrison echoed his remarks about Adams’ conclusion on The Bachelorette. He pointed out the lead developed “unbelievably strong feelings.” However, he wondered whether Adams’ final pick would feel the same way.

In response, the publication asked whether Adams would experience a “proposal gone wrong.” Of course, Harrison was unable to give away any major details. But he hinted Bachelor Nation fans may see Adams with a broken heart.

“It is incredibly emotional,” Harrison said of Adams’ Bachelorette ending. “When you see her broken-hearted and you see her at that level, it’s just different. It really does hit you in a different way.”

Now, Harrison’s comments about Adams’ season of The Bachelorette may not come as much of a surprise. In an interview with Variety from November 2020, ABC executive Rob Mills revealed Adams’ journey would include a few “heartbreaking” moments.

“Tayshia really allowed herself to fall in love with multiple guys. It’s always such a roller coaster,” Mills said. “At the end, there are a lot of heartbreaking, devastating moments. There’s not really a villain. It’s more like, “I want her to end up with him. Wait no, I want her to be with this guy!”

Meanwhile, Adams teased what kind of drama to expect when speaking with USA Today. “You see happiness, you see sadness, you see love more than anything,” she said in November. “You see me really diving into relationships. It’s going to be pretty juicy.”

But no matter what happens on The Bachelorette Season 16, Adams recently confirmed how she’s really doing now. “I’m really happy,” Adams said on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in December. “I’m a happy girl, and I’m really blessed.”
