Kaitlyn Bristowe has shared her take on Clayton Echard and Susie Evans’ opinions about the Fantasy Suite.

The Bachelor alum, Kaitlyn Bristowe, took to her social media to defend Clayton Echard’s take on the Fantasy Suite. Kaitlyn said that she is going to see this situation from a personal experience and will share that when someone is in a position like Clayton Echard, where one has to make a life-altering decision along with trying to find the right person for them, it’s a tough choice.

Kaitlyn added that when you have feelings or are in love with more than one person, then why would you not be intimate with more than one person and try to find that right person to spend the rest of your life with? She asked, Why are we judging so hard on this?

Kaitlyn’s defense of Clayton Echard comes after The Bachelor’s Tuesday episode, where the audience witnessed a messy breakup between Clayton and Susie after she expressed her concerns to Clayton that he was falling in love with other finalists, Gabby Windey and Rachel Recchia, and had been intimate with them too.

Kaitlyn further explained that Clayton Echard is doing his best to build up a connection with the one he thinks he can spend the rest of his life with and doing his best to take relationships as far as they can go, which might also include having intimacy as well. The former Bachelor contestant feels that it’s more heartbreaking to meet someone’s family and then decide to split rather than be intimate with them.

The Bachelor alum pointed out that if intimacy is important to the person who is looking for a partner, then why won’t that person make that a part of their relationship? She further pointed out that everyone should have a conversation about intimacy and fantasy suites with their bachelor and bachelorette when they start falling for them because if that’s something that bothers them, they should be made aware of it.

Kaitlyn Bristowe also shared a clip from The Bachelor season 19 where guest Jimmy Kimmel asked her in front of Chris Soules about whether she would be mad at Chris if he got intimate with all three finalists, to which she said that she couldn’t be because it’s part of the process. She added that one could not buy a car without test driving it.

Kaitlyn finally concluded and added that after looking back at her video, she understood why people would be hurt about things like these, as we are all different and process things differently, and maybe she was okay with it because it goes to show how little she was in love at that point. She has never been one to shy away from discussing intimacy, and the way she defended Clayton by lightly criticizing him demonstrates how understanding, open-minded, and mature Kaitlyn is.

Kaitlyn faced backlash in 2015 when she spent a night with Nick Viall ahead of the Fantasy Suite and shared with E! News at the time that she did not regret any of it. She added that she wants people to see that you should be who you are and that whatever choice she makes is what makes her and she is not going to take it back. Susie Evans walked away from Clayton Echard on Tuesday’s episode, proving that she wants to be true to herself.

Recently, Kaitlyn Bristowe’s man, Jason Tartick, shared that if she had hosted "The Bachelor: Women Tell All", she would have called out the people on the panel for their mistakes, which Jesse Palmer didn’t. The special episode was full of drama as Clayton Echard sat on the hot seat to answer some of the grilling questions asked by the women. Shanae Ankney, was held accountable by the women for the toxicity and gaslighting.
