AGOURA HILLS, CALIFORNIA: After Taylor Wiens' elimination from 'The Bachelor' Season 28, the internet was abuzz with sarcastic expressions of disappointment. Fans expressed their dejection, not because they were genuinely sad to see her go, but because they will now miss out on the extra dose of drama and catfights with the other ladies.

Some even went so far as to blame Joey Graziadei for Taylor's elimination, citing her lack of fame as the main reason. In summary, the internet seemed to be more interested in the entertainment value of the show rather than the actual competition.

"Wait hold on Taylor is going home?? Um waht I had her pegged for this seasons cattiest bitch! Boooo," said a user. "TAYLOR IS GONE????? BUT WHO IS GOING TO FEED US THE DRAMA WITH JESS," added another. 



 



 

It was interesting how the online community interpreted the situation, with many commenting on the irony of her villain arc being cut short before it even began, while others speculated about what could have caused the abrupt disappearance. Some even theorized that the character's sudden departure was a deliberate move to keep fans on the edge of their seats and increase anticipation for future episodes. 

"Waaaait, Taylor’s villain arc hasn’t even gotten a chance to begin. Robbed," said a user. "No Taylor?!? That’s criminal!!!! Had her in my starting 5 and she didn’t even make the cut?!? Joey bad move!!!!," said another. 



 



 

Who went home after 'The Bachelor' Season 28 Episode 2?

After Lauren's departure from the show, Joey Graziadei had to make some tough decisions in the rose ceremony. He eliminated three women - Erika Cardenas, Marlena Haddad, and Taylor Wiens.

While the news was undoubtedly disappointing for these contestants, it also meant that the remaining women had a better chance of winning Joey's heart.
