Blake Horstmann has no regrets over meeting up with several women of The Bachelor franchise prior to the show airing.
‘The Bachelor’ Spoilers: Blake Horstmann Has No Regrets Over Meeting Women Before The Show Aired
Blake and Caelynn Miller-Keyes were planning on meeting each other as several texts were involved. In fact, Blake even leaked messages which showed that, but he does not regret it. In an interview on the Here for the Right Reasons podcast, Blake said: “I don’t regret it. I’ll never really apologize for that. I’m never gonna regret [or] apologize for defending myself.” But it seems the show did not take it as Blake did.
He argued that the producers had tried to prevent him from getting his side of the story across, much like they had done with Rachael Kirkconnell’s scandal. He added: “I mean, the way I look at is — remember how it this season, Rachael, like, they wouldn’t let Rachael put out a statement? That’s kind of what would have happened to me. But I told them to F off.”
Blake certainly did not mince his words, but he has been criticized for his cavalier approach to relationships. After all, it was not just Caelynn. There were plenty of other women involved too. Take, for example, his encounter with Kristina Schulman. He took things a step further and even had sex with Kristina, much to the shock of everyone.
So how did Blake respond to those criticisms? Well, he acknowledged that they exist but took a different spin on it. He believed that were it not for his actions, then those people he had met previously mentioned, would not have gone on to have successful relationships. He continued: “And at the end of the day, like, all those people that were, like, ‘hurt’ by me, they’re freaking all happy and engaged or in relationships. So, it’s like, had I not gone down there, would it have happened the way it did? I don’t know. So no, I don’t necessarily regret it.”
Blake certainly likes to stick by his words, and who are we doubt him, especially if the fans continue to be receptive towards him.
