‘The Bachelorette’ spoilers: Did Nick Viall, Shawn Booth ever bury the hatchet?
We admit that “The Bachelorette” is in many ways so much more fun when there is a rivalry at the center of it. More often than not, we have a tendency to see the guys at the center of the show bro down … but this is not what happened this time with Nick Viall and Shawn Booth, or really last year with Nick and Josh Murray, either. Nick should come with a warning that says “does not play well with others.” It would at least make some sense given what we have seen of his personality so far.
So going into Monday night’s new episode, the majority of the evidence out there suggests that these two are going to continue to do a great job of not getting along, and we have some more evidence of this right now! Speaking E! News, a source close to the situation made it clear that the two never end up being on good terms however long that they are each on the show. They also go on to say that Nick felt like he was never really given any opportunity to bond with the guy:
“Nick felt he had tried to get to know him and was rebuffed at every turn … He didn’t have any respect for the way Shawn was handling himself. Shawn never gave him a chance.”
The biggest issue that we see people having with Nick, outside of course of what he and Kaitlyn Bristowe did in Ireland, is the general perception that someone is going to have over someone coming on the show on separate occasions claiming that he is looking for “love.” It is easy to just twist that instead as being there for fame and fame alone.
As if this was not awkward enough, the synopsis for Monday night’s episode (read more here) claims that Nick and Shawn are going to be on a group date together. That should be fun.
