ABC ‘The Bachelor’ Spoilers: Why Would Fans Bash the Podcast

On The Ben and Ashley I. Almost Famous Podcast, Ben and Ashley addressed what happened. “Hannah says the N-word, and then Hannah disappears, doesn’t say anything. Like, she’s gone. And we get criticism on this podcast because we said that Hannah was wrong for what she did. That’s about where we left it. And Ashley, I’ll stick to that. Now, there is more to the story here,” Ben said. He continued, “My hope is that we turn to forgiving, loving, and accepting Hannah but recognizing what she did was wrong. What she said was wrong. If you’re a hannah fan, I urge you to hear what I’m saying. What she said was not right. Her apology was not great. She blamed her brother, and she posted on Instagram originally. Two weeks later, she comes out with an apology that I hope we can all listen to-as friends, as family, as fans. I hope we can hear what Hannah says and hey, she has a lot to learn, but she’s not saying she was all right.”

Ben wasn’t finished though, he made sure to bring up two of the black cast members who have appeared on Bachelor shows. “Hannah made a mistake. I think everybody was begging for her to apologize and speak out because we were ready to forgive. I think the black commununity-my friends that are black, from what Rachel Lindsay and Mike Johnson has said- they were ready to forgive.”

She made a post that was meant to be an apology two weeks after the mistake. Then she posted again on Instagram Live on May 30. “Do not defend me. What I did and what I said was indefensible. Do not send hateful message to people who are hold me accountable…Go on this journey with me. Take the resources that I have and let’s go on this journey together.. I am no longer ignorant and I am no longer going to be part of the problem.”
