'The Bachelorette': Rachel sends James home, upset fans say 'justice for Meatball'

'Rachel sent home Meatball? NOOO! Whose going to spill all of the gossip to Rachel now. Jessie I’m watching you bro. #bachlorette,' wrote a fan

James Clarke aka Meatball was shown the door on the recently aired episode of 'The Bachelorette' Season 19 after Rachel Recchia decided not to give him a rose during the rose ceremony. Rachel chose to hand in her final rose to Ethan instead, thus cutting short Meatball's journey on the dating show.

While Rachel seemed pleased with her decision, many fans didn't share the same feeling. Several fans took to Twitter to express their displeasure over the funniest suitor's exit from the season. Fans felt that the show's entertainment value would take a dip without Meatball and his crazy antics on the show.

Another fan shared, "I’m actually so sad meatball was sent home tbh #TheBachelorette." "Rachel sent home Meatball? NOOO! Whose going to spill all of the gossip to Rachel now.

"Justice for meatball fr #TheBachelorette," observed a fan.

Earlier this season, Meatball was almost eliminated after he declined Rachel's rose during the rose ceremony. The suitor claimed that he had his heart set on gabby, so he rejected Rachel's rose. But when he failed to receive a rose from Gabby, Meatball quickly ran to Rachel and requested her to give him another chance, so that they could get to know each other better. Though Rachel agreed to his request, looks like she wasn't too interested in him. Hopefully, we'll get to watch him on 'Bachelor in Paradise'.

'The Bachelorette' Season 19 airs on Mondays at 8 pm ET/PT on ABC.
