With 'The Bachelorette' entering its final stages, the remaining contestants now face the 'Hometowns' segment, where Katie Thurston meets each of their families.

Seeing that Blake Moynes, Justin Glaze and Greg Grippo are the last three standing, the latest episode saw Katie meet and get to know the men's families, while they weighed in on what they thought of their situation. Katie was thrilled to meet Blake's family, and they welcomed her with open arms. She got along rather well with Emily, Blake's mom and his sister Taylor. While all was going well on Katie's end, Taylor dished out some tough love towards her brother, calling him out on just how fast he falls for people.

Blake maintained that he could see a future with Katie, Taylor did remind him that he said the same about Clare Crawley and Tayisha Adams when he was on their seasons and that it was vital for him to be sure. His mother, Emily also encouraged Blake to be more forthcoming with his feelings, telling him to " man the f--k up" and tell her that he loves her. 

Fans loved the fact that Taylor kept it real. "Blake's sister absolutely dragging him to FILTH. RIP Blake. #TheBachelorette" tweeted a fan. "Blake's sister really put pressure on his head. "So this is the one now?" #TheBachelorette" agreed another. "Blake's sister: "But you fell in love with Clare and Tayshia IMMEDIATELY…" Me: #thebachelorette" tweeted a fan, seeing that Taylor did not hesitate to get real. "Every hometown needs Blake's sister #TheBachelorette" tweeted a fan, seeing that Taylor was clearly the voice of reason. 



 



 



 



 

While Blake's family on screen did not shy away from asking the real questions, it was what happened off-screen that had fans in absolute splits. This entire season, fans have had a bone to pick with Katie's stylist, seeing that there have been a few hits and many, many misses. Her 'Hometowns' outfit was no exception. 

"No. We are not bringing back the cardigans meant for baby dolls. illegal. Jail. #bachelorette #TheBacheloretteABC #TheBachelorette" tweeted a fan. "When you go to a bar mitzvah in 8th grade and shoulders must be covered for temple #TheBachelorette," agreed another. 



 



 

Katie was certainly in on the joke but that's not what was funny about the situation. Emily gave her possible future daughter-in-law quite the welcome gift that even caught Katie totally off-guard. She took to social media to tell fans that while she picked out a 'church outfit' to make an impression, Emily decided that a Canada-themed sex toy would be the perfect gift for her. "I wore a fucking Sunday church outfit just so I could receive this gift from his mom!!? #TheBachelorette" she tweeted. 



 

Seeing that Katie showed on the Matt James season of 'The Bachelor' with her vibrator, Emily clearly did her research.  So even if Blake isn't the one, looks like Katie will always have a bit of Canada with her! 

'The Bachelorette' airs Mondays at 8 pm ET on ABC.
