Joe Amabile & Serena Pitt Discuss the Adrian & Brayden Drama on ‘The Bachelorette’
Sharing their thoughts.
During their recap of Episode 2 of “The Bachelorette,” “Bachelor Happy Hour” co-hosts Joe Amabile and Serena Pitt discussed the Adrian and Brayden drama and revealed whether they think it will impact their connections with Charity.
Joe started off talking about how Adrian brought Brayden’s actions to Charity’s attention on multiple occasions in this episode.
He said, “I don’t think that’s Adrian’s place to say it because right now Adrian needs to be focused on building his relationship.”
Serena agreed, saying, “We’ve seen two conversations between her and Adrian, and both times he’s been talking about another dude. We’re only on the second episode of this season. That’s never a good sign. He’s set himself up for failure, in my opinion.”
She went on, adding, “And that’s not to say he’s a bad dude. I don’t agree with these actions, and in this situation it’s so hard now to form a romantic connection when all he’s wanted to talk about is how he’s so much more mature and ready than any other guy in the house.”
Joe shared how this drama isn’t setting either Adrian or Brayden up for success in their relationships with Charity.
The Bachelor Nation star said, “I think for both Brayden and Adrian, I don’t see either of them going that far at this point. They have now basically carved out this path for themselves and this is the one they are on and it’s just going to be a battle between those two. It’s going to be very hard to form a connection with her when all this is lingering.”
And while in the teaser for next week’s episode, we didn’t see a whole lot of one-on-one time between Adrian and Charity, we did see Brayden get more time.
Serena said, “I think she actually really likes Brayden, though, because it looks like they get a one-on-one next week. And even when he was saying these things to her about having a difficult time, she’s giggly around him and giddy.”
