Rachel Recchia Not a fan of Devin Strader on And the single woman Season 21. In fact, she couldn’t help but compare herself to her ex, Tino Franco. Fans have long known that Rachel and Tino’s relationship ended after he kissed another woman. Jane Tran may be facing a similar disappointment with Devin.
Devin had created a huge divide among his fans, with viewers unable to gauge his sincerity. But things got worse when controversy erupted over his previous online presence. Fans found him using the word “nigger” and spreading conspiracy theories about the 9/11 attacks, among other things. Rachel must have felt justified in being wary of this man.
This is why Devin bothers Rachel.
On the July 23 episode of the Almost Famous podcast, Rachel made her thoughts on Jen’s suitors crystal clear. “I think a lot of these guys for me are hard to watch sometimes. I think they’re a little bit awkward,” Rachel said. Devin in particular was “giving [her] “The annoying one” with his winning mentality and “that’s my wife” attitude.
“This is the second week, you’re telling other guys, it gives me the same kind of vibes,” she continued. Rachel also criticized Devin for “this sense of confidence that he exudes, I feel like that’s what really turns guys off. But I think at this point, I’ve gotten a little bit over… Devin.” She also asserted that other guys didn’t like Devin.
True, Rachel admitted that none of the contestants made a good impression on her at first. However, Devin was a special case. “I think there’s something about Devin that gives me red flags because he reminds me so much of Tino.” Oh. That’s not a flattering way to describe Devin. Since Jen has other things to worry about, I hope she eliminates Devin soon.
The Bachelorette continues Mondays at 8/7c on ABC.
Tell us – what do you think of Devin? Does he remind you of Tino too?
