Rachel sent Jordan V. home after their one-on-one date

During The Bachelorette 2022 Episode 2, Rachel and Gabby went on their first one-on-one dates. Rachel was excited to spend the day with Jordan V., a drag racer who connected with her on night 1. Rachel and Jordan experienced a zero gravity plane together and seemed to be having a great time. Unfortunately, the chemistry wasn’t entirely there.

During their dinner that evening, Rachel struggled with realizing that something was missing between her and Jordan V. She sadly decided to send him home, which shocked the other men in the household. However, Gabby later praised Rachel for making the difficult decisions necessary for The Bachelorette.

Gabby and Rachel sent Chris home after his inappropriate discussion of Fantasy Suites

Early in the episode, Chris Austin rubbed several of the men the wrong way by discussing his opinions on Fantasy Suites. He essentially stated that he wouldn’t want to be with Rachel or Gabby if they had slept with another man before him in Fantasy Suites.

Later at the cocktail party, Quincey, Jordan H., and Hayden relayed their concerns to Rachel, who passed them on to Gabby. Rachel and Gabby addressed Chris personally but felt that he was “dancing around the issue.”

Finally, Gabby stated, “At this point, I don’t want anyone to be thinking about Fantasy Suites. It’s so early. We don’t even know if we have a connection. And it sounds like you have pretty sure thoughts on it, so to not even put you in that place, I do think it would be time for you to go.” Rachel agreed, and she and Gabby walked Chris out. However, Chris walked back into the mansion to confront the men, and Rachel and Gabby told him to leave yet again.
