ALBERTA, CANADA: 'The Bachelor' Season 28 star Joey Graziadei awarded his rose to Rachel Nance and added the suitress to his final 4 women. However, the ABC show viewers questioned Joey's decision and claimed that he and Rachel had no connection. Joey would soon meet Rachel's family on the upcoming hometown date as he continued to explore connections to find his forever partner.

Joey had been supportive of Rachel and her profession of helping people since the duo's first one-on-one date. Rachel had continued to fascinate Joey with her charming personality and managed to reach the hometown date. He previously admitted that he was "all in" on Rachel. In the latest episode, Rachel showed Joey a picture of her parents to 'soft launch' hometowns.

Joey admired Rachel's confidence in him and noted, "I love how confident you are about me." Notably, Joey might have felt a connection with Rachel but the viewers weren't able to see their chemistry. Multiple furious fans took to social media and called out Joey for advancing Rachel despite the lack of chemistry.

A social media user tweeted, "Wait...I don't remember seeing Rachel much How did she get in the top 4?!?!" Another person added, "Every time I see someone say joey picked rachel just bc he wants to go to hawaii i have to sit down and sigh bc it’s hard for me to believe that people can be that stupid… tell me where joey used to live quickly."

Another critic noted, "Joey has no chemistry with rachel and kelsey A, and very little chemistry with daisy. he fumbled the bag sending kelsey T home." Another internet user penned, "RACHEL???? HE CHOSE RACHEL???? HAS HE EVER EVEN HAD A CONSERVATION WITH RACHEL?!?! WHAT THE ACTUAL EFF JUST HAPPENED?!?!"

Another X user wrote, "Rachel over Jenn?!?!?! Have we been watching the same season Joey?!?!?!?" Another viewer noted, "I lowkey have some qualms about Rachel because I am TRULY trying to understand how she made it this far?!!" Another person shared, "Joey… There is no way you just picked RACHEL."



 



 



 



 



 



 



 

Rachel Nance drinks milk despite being lactose intolerant 

'The Bachelor' Season 28 contestant Rachel Nance recently stepped up her game and put her life at stake to win Joey Graziadei's heart. In the latest episode, Joey invited Rachel along with Jenn Trann, Kelsey Toussant and Maria Georgas for an adventurous group date. Joey met the four women at a lumber farm, where a professional lumberjill named Anita Jezowski was there to teach them about her sport.

The ABC show contestants did their best to saw logs, split wood, and throw axes during the Joey's Ultimate Lumberjill Competition. The winner of the challenge was expected to get a 'Timber Queen Extraordinaire' log trophy and Joey's group date rose. However, the final challenge of the competition was 'Elk Milk Chug' and the contestant had to drink milk.

Without any doubt, Rachel accepted the challenge and drank the milk. Joey applauded Rachel as she was lactose intolerant and allergic to milk protein. She won the round but sadly lost the overall competition to Kelsey.
