Becca and Rachel Share What They Love Most About Each Other
For Becca Kufrin, Rachel Lindsay puts the "happy" in "Bachelor Happy Hour," and vice versa.
The two Bachelorettes joined each other on Instagram Live for their second virtual "Bachelor Happy Hour" happy hour. They answered questions about their most recent podcast episode with Peter Weber and talked about how excited they are for "The Bachelor Presents: Listen to Your Heart" to premiere on Monday, April 13.
After chatting about Peter's season, Becca repeated one fan's question: "What's your favorite thing about your co-host?" Before she could even finish the sentence, Becca volunteered to go first and waxed poetic about her favorite parts of Rachel's personality and attitude.
"What do I love about Rachel? So many things," she gushed. "Every time we talk, I feel like we can just go and go and go. You are funny and witty. You are so eloquent. What people don’t understand about you is that they think at times you’re harsh or too direct, but I love that."

She concluded, "You are direct when you need to be, but you have such a kind side. You always keep me laughing."
Rachel responded, "From the moment I met you, we connected."
She went on, "Being able to get to know you and work with you now, it doesn’t feel like work. It’s just two people having a conversation about shows that they love. I have so much respect for you and I feel like I learn from you when we’re doing podcasts. I know I can be a certain way, but I hear your way, and I think that’s such a positive way to say it and such a beautiful thing to see through your eyes."
Becca explained to Rachel as well as the Instagram Live viewers that she and Rachel had many of the same producers when they were each the Bachelorette. Becca said, "You are one of the few leads that they had nothing but good things to say. That’s one thing I loved about being on the show. You get tidbits of information and news you don’t get to see on TV. You see contestants in another light, and about you, they had nothing but good things to say."
Earlier in their Instagram Live, Becca and Rachel both talked about how they're open books and don't hold back from speaking their true feelings on the podcast. One person inquired whether Rachel and Becca had to follow "guidelines or rules of things you can say or cannot ask."

Rachel replied, "Here’s my response: Have you met Becca and Rachel before? I think you have, because you’ve seen us on an entire season. We have never been one to be told what we’re supposed to say and what we’re not supposed to say."
That's the magic of "Bachelor Happy Hour"!
