Bachelor Nation fans are getting to know Charity on Zach’s season of “The Bachelor.”

And as Charity continues to win over both Zach and Bachelor Nation’s hearts, she stopped by the “Bachelor Happy Hour” podcast to discuss her time on the show so far.

Co-hosts Becca Kufrin and Michelle Young asked Charity about the strong female friendships we’ve been seeing unfold on-screen this season.

Charity got candid, saying that the group of women is really an incredible cast.

She said, “We had a phenomenal cast, and I don’t say that lightly. I was extremely close with almost all of them. You’ll see, though, there are a few like Brooklyn. She’s my rider. She’s very protective but also has this sweet side and I really connected with her. I thanked her so much for standing up for me.”

Charity went on, sharing some of her other close friends, saying, “Kylee is also incredibly sweet. Ariel and I have some of the best conversations, but she’s also very funny. And Kaity is just so down to earth and easy to get along with. Those are a few that really stood out to me.”

Charity also explained how it was easier than she thought to be such close friends with women who are dating the same guy as she is.

She said, “It’s so weird because these are the people we’re somewhat against and we’re dating the same person. That can be really hard. But I think I did a great job of separating the two and compartmentalizing that they are dating the same guy as me, but I am also forming these friendships in a weird way.”

Charity continued gushing over friendship with Brooklyn saying, “With Brooklyn, it was always coming from a genuine place if she would bring something up to me or talk about something she’d want to talk about with him that happened in her life. I always met her there with grace. We formed a really special bond.”

And Charity noted that the support was really apparent across the board.

She said, “I think we were all so close this season because I think that everyone was genuinely so supportive of one another. I think we’re all selfishly rooting for ourselves but also other girls too. It was a weird distinction to make, but I had that support from a lot of the girls in the house.”
