Chris Harrison Calls Andi Dorfman a 'Great Friend' in 'Bachelorette' Throwback
"The Bachelorette" season lasts for eight weeks, but friendships last a lifetime.
Chris Harrison’s throwback of the day involved Andi Dorfman, the Season 10 Bachelorette who made her first appearance on Juan Pablo Galavis’ season of "The Bachelor." Chris posted a selfie of himself and Andi as he lifts a suitcase and she smiles in the background.
He captioned it, "#TheBachelor throwback takes us to spring of 2014 when I helped @andi_dorfman start her journey as #TheBachelorette We didn’t exactly find her love but I found a great friend."
Andi traveled all over the world with her suitors on her season of "The Bachelorette," and eventually narrowed down her final two to Josh Murray and Nick Viall. She got engaged to Josh, but they broke off their engagement five months later. Both Nick and Chris Soules, who was in her final three, later became Bachelors.

The Atlanta, Georgia, native won over viewers during her time on Juan Pablo's season. She hd a particularly memorable moment after their Fantasy Suite date where she told him, "I realized I wasn't in love with you, and I wasn't going to be."
Juan Pablo assured her it was "okay," and she told him why she felt the opposite way.
"It shouldn't just be 'okay,'" she asserted. "I didn't leave behind a child, but I left behind a family, friends, and a job. When you say 'That's okay,' that bothers me."
She also told him, "I listen to you and I appreciate you say you’ve liked me since Week 2, but that doesn’t seem real to me, because you don’t even really know who I am."
Later in their conversation, she told him, "Your response is always 'It’s okay' and everything is always 'It’s okay.' I want to die if I have to hear 'It’s okay' one more time."
Chris threw some shade of his own at Juan Pablo in one of his first throwback posts on Instagram. He uploaded a picture of himself at a soccer stadium in Barcelona during Desiree Hartsock's season of "The Bachelorette" and wrote, "While #TheBachelor is on break let’s step back in time. We start in 2013 Season 9 @desireesiegfried season of #TheBachelorette. The soccer date at the home of Espanyol futbol club in Barcelona. I gave Juan Pablo a red card... maybe a hint of things to come."
