ESTONIA, EUROPE: 'The Bachelor' Season 27 Episode 6 on ABC introduced new drama among the remaining contestants. Charity Lawson received her one-on-one in Estonia, while Kat Izzo kissed Zach Shallcross right before he leaves, upsetting both Brooklyn Willie and the fans.

On Monday, February 27, 2023, 'The Bachelor' Season 27 aired Episode 6, which featured Zach enjoying time with his suitresses in Tallinn, Estonia. Zach was unable to attend any group dates or his planned one-on-one date with Charity because he tested positive for Covid last week. So, in Episode 6, his first date was with Charity, and he went to the girls' villa to pick his date. But drama ensued the moment he stepped into the frame with the ladies.

Kat's 'Can I steal you?' moment irks everyone

In 'The Bachelor' Season 27 Episode 6, Kat creates a commotion. Zach enters the room after Gabi Elnicki has read the date card. "Charity, let’s make up for lost time," Gabi reads aloud to the ladies.

"I’m still obviously on his mind," Charity says after receiving the one-on-one date, adding, "It really feels good to know he wants this one-on-one just as much as I do."

Zach then approaches the contestants' room, intending to take Charity on a date, however, Kat stops him. "Zach, before you go, can you come with me?" Kat asks Zach. Zach agrees and they walk into the corridor alone. "I just missed you and I wanted to say hi to you before you left," she says before kissing him.

"Zach came here specifically for Charity and Kat steals him like we’re at a f***ing cocktail party," Brooklyn says to the cameras. Charity also mentions how the timeliness of Kat's remark felt out of place.

"What could you possibly tell him that’s gonna change your path in this?" Aly Jacobs continues.

'She has Zach wrapped around her finger'

Fans showed their anger toward Kat as one social media user wrote, "Kat: why can’t I have my moment? Me: BECAUSE IT WAS CHARITYS MOMENT." Another viewer pointed out, "Not Kat having a completely different personality when she talks to Zach vs the other girls."

Slamming her for her actions, a fan wrote, "Being called out on desperate, trash behavior is not being “attacked”. If Kat’s strategy is to try and out-trash the competition by throwing herself at Zach, then she needs to put on her big girl panties and accept the consequences." Another viewer wrote, "Kat that was classless kissing Zach in front of everyone especially Charity right before she goes on her date!!"



 



 



 



 

One viewer also noted, "Kat is the perfect villain. She has Zach wrapped around her finger and can easily coast until hometowns." Seeing the two, a fan quipped, "Look at Kat sitting there like a preening peacock beside Zach!"

Hoping Zach would see Kat's true colors, a fan tweeted, "Kat is RUDE and CRAZY Pay Attention Zach." Another person wrote, "I feel like the only connection kat has with zach is sexual."
