Sam N. Opens Up About Expressing His Love for Jenn on ‘The Bachelorette’ and How He Felt Afterward
Getting candid.
This week, Bachelor Nation fans saw Sam N. bare it all and confess his love for Jenn Tran during their Thunder from Down Under date on “The Bachelorette.”
While the other guys stripped down and showed off their abs, Sam N. stripped down emotionally and told Jenn he was falling in love with her despite never being in love before.
Now, Sam N. is stopping by the “Bachelor Happy Hour” podcast to open up about this experience with co-hosts Joe Amabile and Serena Pitt.
The co-hosts asked Sam N. how he felt about his decision to share his feelings for Jenn as he got up on that stage.
The Bachelor Nation star said, “Before going into it, I felt really good. I wanted to best represent myself, my family, and take a moment to showcase myself to Jenn and show that I’m here for her and I felt really good about it. Post-doing it, I felt terrible. I felt like a fool. It was really awkward.”
Joe said it “sucked” that people laughed at him after he shared his feelings but asked Sam N. if he meant what he said to Jenn.
Sam N. said he did mean what he said, sharing, “In this realm, every emotion is heightened. Everything is heightened and the feelings I felt for Jenn are really new feelings for me as well.”
He went on, “Every conversation builds on the other and we are building from that. It was these new emotions and I started to feel this really strong connection between the two of us and I wanted to really progress that and show that to her on this date.”
