'The Bachelor' Season 26: Clayton slammed for being 'immature' and gaslighting Susie

With Clayton refusing to talk over the intimacy matter with Susie, fans say she 'dodged a bullet'

Season 26 of 'The Bachelor' has certainly been a rollercoaster. From the chaos to fights, the drama almost seems never-ending. And even though the show has entered it's final segment, it looks like the drama is far from over.

With the fantasy suite dates finally here, Gabby, Rachel and Susie all spent quality time with Clayton in Iceland. However, when it came to Susie's date with Clayton, she dropped quite the bomb on him -- she couldn't be with him if he had slept with anyone else. But by then, the damage was done -- he had gotten intimate with both Rachel and Gabby.

While Susie mentioned that she would have to walk away from the situation, Clayton was absolutely livid and called her out for not communicating her feelings about intimacy sooner. Susie explained that she wanted him to have the full experience but soon realized how important this was to her. Instead of talking it out, Clayton shut down entirely, stating that it would have changed everything had she said something sooner. He was also upset that she was willing to throw it all away suddenly. Susie was just as upset, seeing that Clayton refused to hear what she had to say after a point. Finally, Susie left the show, seeing that their situation was beyond redemption. Fans were angry with the way Clayton handled the situation.

"When @ThenSusieSaid mentioned she just wanted him to handle that situation with more kindness, I broke. She deserves so much more. #TheBachelor" tweeted a fan. "this franchise overall makes such a distinction between "falling in love" and "in love" so when clayton told 3 women he was in love with them, they each took that as full commitment. it's all just semantics but if ur playing "the game" that's the established formula #thebachelor" agreed another. "Holy. Sh*t. I tried to be kind & say @ClaytonEchard was just a bit immature for #TheBachelor but after that HOLY F*CK what a piece of sh*t. No woman deserves to be treated like that EVER. Disgusting behavior. I knew all those dated comments all season were 🚩🚩🚩#TheBachelorABC" said another. "Susie, everyone watching this train wreck thinks you're a queen with standards & a kind heart & Clayton is a baby who wanted all the cake & was SHOCKED when you were not down with him banging other chicks. You. Dodged. A. Bullet. #TheBachelor" tweeted a fan. "Susie girl you deserved better than to be gaslighted like that. It's not YOUR fault he slept with other women. #thebachelor" added another.
