Is Charity Lawson OK? 'The Bachelorette' suffers from panic attack during show's last rose ceremony
FIJI, OCEANIA: Charity Lawson nearly had a panic attack at her last rose ceremony, which served as a preview for the August 21 finale. The Season 20 finale of 'The Bachelorette' will air on ABC on Monday, August 21, 2023, from 8-11pm EST.
'The Bachelorette' Season 20 Episode 9 should pick up where we left off before the "Men Tell All" special. Charity was in Fiji, dealing with the emotional fallout from her separation from Xavier Bonner, while also attempting to digest the surprise reappearance of previously eliminated participant Aaron Bryant.
According to the episode's finale description, we'll see Charity present two guys to her family, which implies Aaron, Joey Graziadei, or Dotun Olubeko will most likely be eliminated early on.
Aaron's chances aren't looking good, given Charity's recent Fantasy Suite dates with Joey and Dotun. But kudos on the wonderful romantic gesture!
Charity Lawson has panic attack at Final Rose Ceremony
Charity, 27, will make her final selection and may accept a proposal from one of her three remaining contestants — Dotun, Joey, or Aaron, who was previously eliminated and reappeared at the conclusion of the most recent episode.
While Aaron may have returned to Fiji for a second chance, Charity will have to choose between integrative medicine doctor Dotun and tennis player Joey.
Charity is shown practically hyperventilating in teaser footage for Monday's finale after realizing she is in love with many guys.
"I know that I am getting engaged, but I don't know who it's going to be," she says in one tape. "I thought it was gonna be so clear," she continues. "I'm truly not okay."
She expresses anxiety about the possibility that she will come to regret her decision. Charity breaks down and sobs in her final outfit of the season, with the three guys as they spend their final moments in Fiji.
"You are not supposed to say goodbye to somebody that you love," she adds through tears in a confessional.
The main lead is then seen crying again as the door of a black automobile closes in front of her. "I can't breathe, I really can't," she says as she travels through Fiji's lush flora. "I'm gonna have a panic attack," she adds.
While Charity is dressed beautifully in a pearl-studded gown, it's evident she has some difficult decisions to make before perhaps getting engaged in tonight's episode.
