Brooklyn Willie Shares Why She Told Zach Shallcross About Her Past Relationship
Brooklyn spoke about her decision to tell Zach about her abusive relationship on the February 21 episode of the Bachelor Nation podcast “Bachelor Happy Hour.”
The ABC star told host Michelle Young she had reservations about telling Zach because she feared he would think she wasn’t ready for a relationship.
“I was concerned he would be like, ‘Oh, maybe she still needs to like work some stuff out,'” she said.
She went on to say that Zach handled the situation “with such grace” and told Michelle that the conversation deepened her connection with the Bachelor.
“After that, our connection just skyrocketed,” she said.
The Texas native spoke about the importance of sharing her story in an interview with Entertainment Tonight on March 6.
“[I] felt in that moment of me sharing my story and being so open about it can help just one person, maybe that’s the reason God had me go through it,” she told the outlet.
“The Bachelor” airs Mondays at 8 p.m. Eastern Standard time on ABC.
