Matt James’ Bachelor season was marked by a few controversies.
It’s been a few months now, and James and Kirkconnell are reportedly back together – and he has explained his reasons why.
The situation escalated when Chris Harrison had to step down as longtime host after his clumsy defense of Kirkconnell in an interview with Rachel Lindsay.
Photos emerged of finalist Rachael Kirkconnell at an Antebellum-themed sorority party, as well as evidence of other insensitive social media posts, which ultimately resulted in James deciding that they couldn’t continue with their relationship.
