Clare Crawley Says Her Mom 'Loves' Dale Moss 'Sooo Much'
Clare Crawley's mom Lilia has signed, sealed, and delivered her stamp of approval to Dale Moss.
Clare has been open about her mom's struggles with Alzheimer's and dementia and her living in a care facility in their hometown of Sacramento, California. Dale flew to California not long after their engagement aired on "The Bachelorette" and gave him her version of a Hometown Date. She revealed on Instagram Thursday that Dale has met Lilia, and even better, she adores him.
The first Season 16 Bachelorette partook in an Instagram Q&A on her Stories while finishing up a sauna treatment, and one person asked, "Has Dale met your momma?"

Clare responded, "He sure has and she can't stop staring at him with the biggest smile! She loves him sooo much, and asks about him when he's not there with me."
She shared some more information about her fiancé, including a photo of some matching Christmas stockings he got for the two of them as well as her dogs Elbie and Honey.
Another user inquired, "What would Dale say is his favorite thing about you?"
Clare tagged Dale in it to respond, and he wrote, "Your eyes had me hooked since the moment I met you."
A third wrote in, "Is he still who u thought he was when u said yes?"
Clare revealed, "No. He's even better."
Aside from her romantic notes about Dale, Clare got candid about some of the more difficult parts of her days, including coping with "being in the public eye."
She said, "Honestly, it's the hardest part about this all. I definitely know it's what I signed up for, but people cross the line sometimes and forget we are human."

Clare recently opened up about this subject in a lengthy Instagram post where she vowed to "rise above the negativity."
She wrote, "Hi. It’s me, Clare. Not Clare that you have seen edited on your television or social media squares. But the human one with feelings, insecurities, emotions, and a normal life just like you. And just like you, I’m going through things, big and small, that all of us experience at some point or another."
Clare asserted, "There are good days and bad days. Being on reality TV doesn’t exempt me (or any of us) from that. I will always do my best to rise above the negativity and find the positive, but I am not superhuman. So when you choose to pass judgements without knowing someone personally or even something as small as a snide comment, please remember just like you, I am simply trying my best❤️"
