'The Bachelorette' 2022 After the Final Rose: Are Aven Jones and Rachel Recchia dating? Couple leave show midway
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'The Bachelorette' Season 19 star Rachel Recchia was subjected to much backlash when she decided to dump her suitor Aven Jones because he wasn't entirely ready to get engaged to her. The 28-year-old sales executive admitted to Rachel's friends that he wasn't yet ready to take the next step with Rachel, but wanted to continue working on their relationship.
A very impatient Rachel dumped him and decided to get engaged to Tino Franco instead. Unfortunately, the engagement didn't turn out to be the "happily-ever-after" scenario that the pilot was envisioning for herself. Soon after the filming for the dating show wrapped up, Rachel and Tino began having several problems in their relationship, including him cheating on her. So, the 'After the Final Rose' special was pretty explosive when Rachel and Tino came face-to-face for the first time after their breakup. After a very intense confrontation session, Rachel got her much-deserved break when the show's host Jesse Palmer revealed that one of Rachel's suitors was very insistent about speaking to her. Aven then walked onto the stage and asked Rachel if she wanted to get out and "catch up with him". While Tino sat in shock, Rachel replied saying she wanted nothing more than that, and offered a hug to Aven. The duo then walked off the show mid filming leaving Jesse and Tino puzzled.
