Ben Zorn Reflects On Kaitlyn Bristowe And ‘Bachelorette’ Experience
Ben Zorn doesn’t seem bitter about being sent home by Kaitlyn Bristowe. On last Monday’s episode of The Bachelorette, viewers saw Kaitlyn send Ben home while the group was in Ireland. On Friday, Ben posted a lengthy Instagram message in which he reflected on his time at the mansion.
Ben called Kaitlyn “a beautiful girl” and filming the show “one of the best experiences of [his] life.” He accompanied the message with a photo of himself sitting besides Brady Toops and Clint Arlis during the first night of filming.
“Flashback Friday! First night in the house! Getting to know a beautiful girl and some awesome dudes. Had no idea what was to come. One of the best experiences of my life! So many good memories! Thankyou for all the love and support this season! ?#thebachelorette#abc #bachelornation #.”
By Sunday evening, Ben had received about 400 comments, most of which were positive. People told Ben that they were rooting for him and wished him the best in finding love. Many of the comments also said that he should be the next The Bachelor star.
What are the chances of Ben Zorn becoming the next man to hand out the red roses? He has some strong competition from a fellow Kaitlyn Bristowe-suitor. As the Inquisitr previously reported, all of the women at a casting call in Seattle about two weeks ago said that they either wanted Ben or Shawn Booth to be the next Bachelor.
In her latest People blog post, Kaitlyn revealed that she didn’t expect to send Ben home. She even seemed to hint that if Ben becomes the next The Bachelor star, a lot of women will be very happy.
“Going into the night, I really didn’t know whom I was sending home, and I wanted it to be there with Ben Z. But I just didn’t feel like we were moving forward. He was always nice and sweet, and he’s so handsome, but our relationship had stalled. Again, I really wanted it to be there, who doesn’t love Ben Z.? We all do, I just didn’t see him as my husband. That’s all. I’m sure 99 percent of women out there will!”
Kaitlyn Bristowe added that while Ben Zorn wasn’t the guy for her, she’s sure that he would make someone else very happy.
“Saying goodbye to Ben Z. was crappy, I don’t know how else to put it. I didn’t want to see him leave, and I knew he didn’t see it coming, but at the same time I didn’t really either. But, like I said, compared to my other relationships, we weren’t moving forward. I will say this: I would set him up with any one of my best friends or family because Ben Z. is a stand-up guy. I wish nothing but the best for him.”
