Rachel was the last contestant to join the ladies on stage after fans watched Joey eliminate her on the episode. She shared with Us that reliving the drama was tougher than she had anticipated. She also addressed the social media buzz about her reaction to Maria pulling Joey at the final four rose ceremony, a question that was not brought up during the reunion.

“We’re all exhausted during these ceremonies and we understand that we’re tired. So if you observe the interaction between Maria and me, we were fine,” Rachel explained to Us. “We kissed him, I left, and everything was okay. I believe it was a valid question. We all feel nervous before the ceremony, and she had every right to pull him. People can make their own choices, and I find it disheartening that I faced criticism for that. However, I stand by my words and I won’t back down. Maria was okay with my response.”
