Keeping it real.

Bachelor Nation fans got to know Kat Izzo on Season 27 of “The Bachelor” and again on Season 9 of “Bachelor in Paradise.”

Kat is currently giving love another shot on the beaches of “Bachelor in Paradise” Season 10 and has formed a strong connection with Dale Moss.

However, this week we saw tensions rise as the two started arguing because Dale didn’t reveal he had kissed Alli Jo and claimed he has “deaded it.”  

Now, Kat has joined “Bachelor Happy Hour” to share more about that fight and why it started in the first place. 

Kat revealed that the argument stemmed from feeling a lack of transparency in the relationship.  

“We set a foundation of transparency,” she said, “so for that precedent to be set and then not met, I’m like, ‘Okay, what?’... It wasn’t about the kiss. It was like, ‘So what else is there that I don’t know? What else has happened that I’m not being [told]?’ And then that’s where my mind started going.”

Kat also discussed the reasons why she thinks Dale had an issue with the timing of their fight happening before the Rose Ceremony.

“I knew I needed to sit with it before I really responded because I didn’t want to come from a place of triggers and alarms,” she shared. “I still don’t fully understand it. I mean maybe it was the fact that he was like, ‘Well, time has gone by, I thought it was over.’ Maybe he felt anxiety about it being a Rose Ceremony night and he didn’t want it to be a thing on a night that was already stressful and I should’ve been more cautious of that. But for me, I’m thinking, like, ‘It has nothing to do with that.’”

She continued, saying, “I had found out [about the kiss] that morning. So basically in his perspective, that morning I find out and then we still go about the day. But I’m talking about it with Jonathon. I’m talking about it with my girls. I’m still making sense of it. So I think he thought the conversation was over in the morning… I wanted it to be a moment where we could understand each other better.”

Kat then shared why she felt the need to bring up the topic again that night before the Rose Ceremony.

“I don’t feel like he fully understood me the first time and that still needed to be addressed,” she admitted. “Time is limited. I wasn’t ready to have the conversation fully because I didn’t really fully understand where my emotions were at and I expressed that to him. I don’t think he heard it because I think he was in such a defensive mode that a lot of the things I said went right over his head. And he was just focused on making sure that I understood that it was ‘deaded,’ I guess.”
