Charity Lawson is from Columbus, GA
During The Bachelor Season 27 Week 8, Zach Shallcross visited Charity in her hometown of Columbus, GA. There Zach met Charity’s parents, siblings, and many of her friends. Later the pair danced and listened to music at a local bar.
The date went well for Charity and Zach, despite the fact that it was an incredibly emotional day. However, Charity did not receive a rose after hometowns. The child and family therapist teared up while saying her goodbyes to Zach. Nevertheless, she left the show gracefully.
“I took a big risk coming here and putting my heart out on the line,” Charity told Zach. “And I knew that from night one, the moment that you spoke and the moment that I knew it was you, I knew that this experience was going to be something incredible. It’s bittersweet for sure.”

Charity wrote about the “great group of girls” she shared her journey with and Zach acting as a “constant safe space.” She also thanked “every single producer and staff behind the scenes” and “bachelor nation and all the fans for the love.” She ended her post by writing, “One thing I know is true: the best is yet to come!”
