The Bachelor host Jesse Palmer has a stern message for the women of season 29 fighting for Grant Ellis’ attention.
He is encouraging them to play fair or prepare for the consequences.
During episode 2, tensions erupted after contestant Zoe McGrady repeatedly interrupted others’ time with Grant. First during a basketball slam dunk contest, then again at the afterparty.
Palmer, who has seen it all as both a former Bachelor and host, made it clear that actions have repercussions.
He warned: “One reality that stands the test of time on The Bachelor is that you will have a chat interrupted at some point; therefore, I feel that if you are the ‘interrupter,’ you should be ready for all types of reactions.”
He then laid out exactly what happens when someone repeatedly steals time with the lead.
“The rest of the cast will be notified. You will be confronted.
"You will likely have your own one-on-one time interrupted in the future — probably by the ‘interruptee.’ This is one of the commandments of The Bachelor.”
Zoe’s interruptions enraged Alli Jo Hinkes, who hadn’t had any alone time with Grant.
In response, Alli Jo stole Grant back, only for Zoe to snatch him away yet again.
Despite the backlash, Zoe stood her ground, believing she was doing what she had to do to keep Grant’s attention.
Fans have also given mixed reviews on Zoe's actions, with some believing she was doing right to make sure she got her time with Grant!
