Elyse Dehlbom, who is best known for appearing on The Bachelor, has been looking back at her time on the show. 

‘The Bachelor’: Elyse Dehlbom Looks Back At Her Time On Colton Underwood’s Season

The star made herself known to the fans during Colton Underwood’s time as the lead on the franchise. While she did forge her own memories on the show, the season was blighted in the aftermath as Colton came out as gay. And yet, Elyse has mixed feelings towards how it all played out.

In an interview on the Here for the Right Reasons podcast, she stated how she wished Colton could have avoided his interactions with the opposite sex prior to his reveal. She said: “I wished him the best when he came out with that interview. But I just wish some of the decisions prior to him coming out had not happened…I just wish people hadn’t been hurt in the process of him coming out.”

One of the people that Colton had hurt was Cassie Randolph. The latter had won the show, and they ended up dating for over a year.

However, it all ended badly as Cassie would go on to file a restraining order against Colton. While she would go on to drop the order, it did leave a bitter taste in the mouth. Thus, when Colton dropped his news, Cassie sought to distance herself from it irrespective of Colton’s public regret over his behaviour towards her. 

But for all the drama caused by Colton, Elyse had her own issues to deal with. Just when things were starting to settle down on the show, Elyse made the difficult decision to walk away. By doing that, she did manage to avoid what we now know as a bad ending, given that Colton was gay.

And yet, she gave up any exposure that she may have gotten as a result. Having said all that, she does not regret the way she handled herself. She added: “I went out with a bang. I don’t regret being on the show because of the people that’s brought into my life. The friends that you get from this experience, even from other seasons, is worth everything.”
