Heading home!

This week in Bachelor Nation history, we’re throwing it back to Rachel Lindsay’s season of “The Bachelorette.”

This week in 2017, Rachel took her final three men — Bryan Abasolo, Eric Bigger, and Peter Kraus — to meet her family in Dallas, Texas.

At the beginning of the episode, Rachel explained that they were meeting her family an episode early because her sister was eight months pregnant at the time and couldn’t travel to their next location.

When arriving in Texas, Rachel says, “We’re home in Dallas in my beloved city with Eric, Bryan, and Peter. I’m falling in love and I’m excited because I see a future with these men, but I’m also scared of not knowing what to do at the end.”

And Rachel reminded her men, “This is the last time you’ll get to talk to my family before the end of all of this. This is really important. You’ll be meeting several members of my family.”

One by one, the guys were put on the hot seat as Rachel explored what her future would be like with these potential partners.

First to meet her family was Peter, and before they went inside, Peter finally opened up to Rachel and said he was falling in love with her.

Once inside, he met the Lindsay crew, including Rachel’s older sister Constance, her brother-in-law Alex, her mom Kathy, her uncle Jeff, her aunt Connie, and her cousin Andrea.

Rachel’s dad wasn’t able to meet the men, but she said she trusted her mom to ask all the important questions.

Rachel’s family noticed that Peter was a bit reserved with his emotions and actually didn’t end up asking for Rachel’s hand in marriage.

He told her mom that he wasn’t sure if he was going to be ready to propose at the end of the show but got her permission to date Rachel.

Next up was Eric, who shared that he was anxious because it had been around seven years since he’d met a significant other’s family.

Eric made a good first impression on Rachel’s family, but her sister Constance caught onto some red flags.

Constance worried that Eric wasn’t on the same page as Rachel when it came to wanting to get married and didn’t have as much serious relationship experience.

Eric revealed that he had never been in love before and that his past relationship was only eight months long.

Last but not least was Bryan’s date, and before heading to meet the family, Rachel introduced him to two of her friends that had signed her up for “The Bachelor.”

Rachel’s friends loved Bryan and could tell quickly that they had strong feelings for each other.

Bryan told Rachel’s friends that he was in love with her and that he was excited to meet her family.

He said, “Rachel is an amazing woman and you can tell she comes from such a great family. I want to be a part of her family one day, so I hope to make a good first impression with them and win them over.”

Rachel’s mom Kathy was skeptical of Bryan saying he loved Rachel, and her sister Constance worried that Bryan was a “charmer.”

Rachel eventually got frustrated with the questioning and said that their energy was different than it was with Peter and Eric.

Eventually, Bryan won Kathy over and said, “Mrs. Lindsay, I love your daughter. She has everything I’ve ever wanted in a future wife. I know that I will be proposing if she picks me at the end of all this and I will be committed to that relationship. I intend for it to turn into a marriage at some point whenever we both feel ready. I would love and appreciate your blessing.”

Kathy responded, “I trust her judgment, so you have my blessing to take this love and build on that. Bryan appears very honest and I trust Rachel. I am open to wherever life takes her. It’s exciting, but at the same time, it’s a little scary.”

As fans know, Rachel and Bryan ended up getting engaged at the end of her season and have been together ever since.
