It’s protected to say Mexico wasn’t Paradise for Teddi Wright. The Bachelor season 26 alum left the seaside in tears through the Tuesday, October 4, episode of Bachelor in Paradise.
After accepting Andrew Spencer’s rose, Teddi, 25, started to query why she wasn’t “all over” the Bachelorette season 17 alum.
“I really do like Andrew, but I don’t think we’re in the same place as some people that are coupling up a bit more,” she mentioned, noting that she’s “trying to stay open to the process.”
Things escalated when Rodney Matthews arrived and wished to pursue Teddi.
“I definitely want to get to know Rodney. … I think I am concerned about Andrew. Sometimes I think I’m not as affectionate as he would want me to be [or] as affectionate as I am in other relationships,” she instructed the cameras. “And I think Rodney getting here has made that clear to me, so I have been feeling kind of bad about that. I’m just really confused.”
After getting emotional, Teddi pulled Andrew for a chat.
“I really didn’t want to come,” she admitted. “I came because I wanted to meet you.”
Andrew agreed. “I want it just as bad as you,” he mentioned. “I feel like you’re going to make me better. … [But] I don’t want to force nothing.”
Instead of ready to see if Rodney would ask her out (spoiler alert: he wished to), Teddi opted to depart the present.
“I want to get married, and I want to have kids. … I want to go home and move past this and find that person,” she mentioned.
During a tense chat with producers, Teddi added: “I feel so bad. Like, I just want to go now. I know you wanted me to find love here and I get that, but, like, I’m just not. I want to go. … I’m not going in there and doing a big goodbye with everyone.”
Elsewhere through the episode, Aaron Clancy and James Bonsall arrived for his or her second photographs at love and requested out rivals Genevieve Parisi and Shanae Ankney, respectively. The double date left Justin Glaze, who simply made amends with Genevieve after briefly pursuing Victoria Fuller, and Logan Palmer, who gave his rose to Shanae, anxious — and for good cause.
“I don’t want to compare, but even the first night with Justin, I didn’t think he was into me like that,” Genevieve instructed the cameras. “I know Aaron’s into me, like, he’s showing me.”
Shanae additionally felt that her relationship with James was extra “effortless” than with Logan. “I’m feeling really good about James. I can tell how mature he is and that’s sexy in someone,” she mentioned on their date. “I know there’s something there. … But there’s some big, big positives with Logan [too]. I know there’s some things I don’t like about Logan. James just seems so confident. I feel like there’s just so many emotions. It’s scary. Dating is scary.”
