'It's annoying': 'The Bachelor' Season 28 fans question Joey Graziadei's intentions wondering if star prefers 'chaos over love'

In 'The Bachelor' Season 28, viewers questioned star Joey Graziadei's intentions, expressing doubts about his choices amid a drama-filled journey

AGOURA HILLS, CALIFORNIA: Fans of 'The Bachelor' Season 28 criticized Joey Graziadei, expressing doubts about his intentions on the ABC show. Many questioned whether he was drawn to drama and chaos, suggesting that he might be a sucker for it.

Some fans even went as far as wondering if he enjoyed the company of women who create drama and are generally messy.

The fans were particularly skeptical about Joey's decisions, including his choice to keep both sisters on the show and give the first preference to Jess, who was perceived as the villain of the show.

Fans also criticized Joey for keeping Madina, Maria, and Sydney on the show despite their ongoing drama. They questioned his decision to allow the continued presence of contestants involved in conflicts, expressing concerns that he is willing to keep the drama continuing on the show. 

This raised concerns among viewers, who began to doubt Joey's genuine intentions and questioned if his choices were driven more by a desire for entertainment and controversy rather than a sincere search for love.

"I can't help but question Joey's taste. He kept both sisters until one pulled the ripcord. He is keeping Maria, Madina & Sydney despite this little drama triangle? I can't help but wonder if he likes drama/tension/chaos," said a user.

"Joey is confusing me with his taste. Jess and that wack ass Taylor swift fit would not have gotten the first kiss lol," said another. 

Another user pointed out how Joey loved drama himself. "Joey: I'm not someone that loves drama... Also Joey: please introduce the drama. I miss the days when production would instigate drama by leaving a magazine on a table with a planted story on the cover."

"The drama is all Joey's fault. He urged Sydney to share, saying he was giving her a "safe space" to share Then, HE went back to the ground and said he'd "heard there was bullying going on in the house." He can't say he's providing a safe space, then tattle on her," added another. 

Others claimed Joey simply continued with the drama because the production asked him to. "Producers telling Joey to keep Sydney for more drama."

Another added, "It’s because the producers don’t actually care if Joey finds a good person they want the crazy ones there for the drama it’s so freaking annoying!!!!"
