The ABC reality series The Bachelorette has only two episodes aired so far, but Jillian Harris already has regrets.
“Extra’s” Interview with Jillian Harris airs on Monday, June 1st
She tells Extra while she was taping the show, she had no idea the guys were constantly bickering with each other. “Now that I saw what was going on, I wished so bad I would have piped in there because I would have said, ‘Listen boys, man up. This is not the behavior I am looking for.’ I wished I would have done that.”
According to Jillian, last Monday’s episode, the men were given the opportunity to send a fellow contestant home and the smooth-talking Juan received the most votes. But why did Harris decide to save him and give him a rose?
“I don’t know why he’s not popular. I think Juan is very, very different from the rest of the guys. He’s 35, soon to be 36. He’s out of that scene, not really a frat boy…To me, Juan was there for the right reasons. He was very into me. Always sweet to me. I love what he does for a career and his relationship with his mom so to me, there was no reason to let him go.”
Harris revealed what she’s looking forward to once her time as The Bachelorette is over. “Pretty simple. I want to get married, have kids, go back to my career and what I was doing.”
Although there is drama on her own reality show as she tries to find true love, Harris has nothing on reality couple trainwreck Kate and Jon Gosselin.
“I did watch one episode after all this stuff came out about them…I think that they are under extreme stress and pressure…The one thing I’ve learned from watching what Jason (Mesnick, The Bachelor) went through…is everybody is human. People make mistakes…I just think with Jon & Kate Plus 8, they love their kids, love each other and they went through some tough times. Hopefully they can figure it out.”
The Bachelorette airs Mondays on ABC.
