LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'The Bachelor' Season 28 recently witnessed its first-ever self-elimination. In the latest episode of ABC's popular dating show, a contestant named Lauren Hollinger decided to pick the option of self-eviction from the series during a cocktail party. 

Recently, Hollinger took to her Instagram page to spill the beans on her short journey in 'The Bachelor.' She posted a series of pictures from her time on the show. 

Lauren started by writing, "Well that’s a wrap! I’m truly grateful to have had this opportunity and met all these wonderful people. In hindsight, I could’ve handled things better but I’m human."

"Please respect my privacy at this time as I will be testing out all red velvet cakes in Philly until further notice. Wishing joey the best of luck in his journey….Now everyone go support my bestie @allisonhollinger," she further added.

Why did Lauren Hollinger leave 'The Bachelor' Season 28?

 Lauren Hollinger decided to eliminate herself during the second week of 'The Bachelor' Season 28. This instance occurred during the cocktail party, where she ultimately chose to leave the show.

The reason behind her self-elimination was attributed to her sister, Allison Hollinger, who had a stronger connection with Joey Graziadei. Lauren, on the other hand, did not feel the same level of attraction towards him.

Alongside Lauren, Erika Cardenas, Marlena Haddad, and Taylor Weins were also sent home in the same week. However, their departures took place during the Rose Ceremony.

Before her departure, Lauren had not been chosen for any One-on-One Dates but had participated in one Group Date during her time on 'The Bachelor' Season 28.

Who is Lauren Hollinger's sister Allison on 'The Bachelor' Season 28?

Allison Hollinger, a 26-year-old professional in the real estate industry, has encountered numerous substantial romantic partnerships in the past, unfortunately without lasting success.

Furthermore, Allison has achieved notable triumphs in various costume contests, demonstrating her creative flair and passion for imaginative dress-ups.

Additionally, Allison takes pleasure in indulging in the delightful and refreshing fruity gin spritzes, which perfectly complement her sophisticated taste.

Moreover, she likes adorning herself in exquisite attire, particularly for upscale and refined occasions, as she appreciates the opportunity to showcase her elegance and style.

In addition to her role as a cast member, Allison is also known as the younger sister of Lauren, who is also a member of the cast. Even though, they are often described as "best friends," it seems that the sisters have had feelings for the same guys in the past.

According to Allison's profile on ABC, it is mentioned that both she and her sister Lauren have been in a romantic relationship with the same man, albeit at different periods. 

Allison, who is currently 26 years old, happens to be two years younger than her sister Lauren, who is 28 years old.

Do Allison Hollinger and Joey Graziadei end up together on 'The Bachelor' Season 28?

The answer to the above question is a big no. 

Allison, who competed on 'The Bachelor' Season 28, unfortunately did not emerge as the winner of Joey's season and was eliminated in Week 4, as confirmed by the popular reality TV blogger, Reality Steve.

Allison's journey on the show was unfortunately cut short as she did not have the opportunity to go on any One-on-One dates.

However, she did participate in three Group Dates, which allowed her to spend time with the Bachelor and get to know him in a group setting.

Sadly, Week 4 marked the end of Allison's journey on the show, as she was sent home alongside Sydney Gordon and Edwina Dorbor.

Sydney's elimination occurred during a dramatic Two-on-One Date with Maria Georgas, where the Bachelor had to make a tough decision between the two women.

On the other hand, Edwina's departure took place during the Rose Ceremony, where the Bachelor decided to let go of both Edwina and Allison.

It was a bittersweet moment for all three women as they had hoped to find love on the show but ultimately faced disappointment.
